Abstract

Being an Arab-American Muslim woman in America, Mohja Kahf has encountered not only problems in living a life which is in accordance with Islamic sharia but also the difficulties to deal with non-Muslim Americans who are often cynical with Muslim’s dress, rituals and so forth. As a poet, she expresses all her thought, feeling, hope, and anxiety in her poem collection Emails from Scheherazad (2003). This research attempts to elaborate both dilemma and aspiration of Kahf as an Arab-American Muslim woman as figured out in a number of her poems in Emails from Scheherazad. This is a qualitative research, and it approaches the poems using sociology of literature theory. Thus, it analyzes not only the issues within the poems but also cross-checks it with the relevant social subjects such as the existence of Arab-American Muslim in America, the response of American government and society towards Muslim’s way of life in America, and brief account on Kahf’s life. This research has found that the dilemmas faced by Kahf are mostly those related with wearing a scarf, performing Salah starting from descent facilities for wudu to prayer. Also, Kahf aspires for love, friendship, strong commitment to ancestor’s tradition while peacefully conforming to present locale, and humanity above all.

Abstract

Student's work for a writing class is no longer one submitted for limited readership the teacher and the writer himself as it can be publicly shared online. Posted on a webpage such as blog, it allows more people to access, read, or leave comments. Though it may sound intimidating for some shy students who are likely to keep their writing private, it is less about trespassing the confidential status of a student's work than building the student's self confidence and encouraging them to produce a better composition. It is especially through class blog which is managed by a number of students of the same class. This model proves to be beneficial for the students because not only is their writing read by more audience than their fellow classmates but they can also identify themselves as a team. This paper attempts to describe the previous researches concerning the application of blog in general and what it means by class blog, the model of class blog which has been implemented in this project, and how team work among the classmates is built through class blogs.
