Prof. Allen, my dissertation advisor, suggested I send a question I had
about a possible Maghribi variation of the qasida. I am looking for
research articles on the qasidah in Morocco. I have some references on
the qasidah in Hebrew Moroccan Jewish literature and I wanted to try
and get some articles that describe and discuss this genre among Muslim
authors.

The description I have of it is a strophic, single subject poetic genre
written in a language that is intermediate between the dialect and
classical Arabic.

Any information you might have would be appreciated. Also does anyone
know of any journals that focus on Arabic literature in North Africa?

  Thanks,

Sharon Vance
