KlappentextElias Khoury (b. 1948) is one of the most outstanding figures in Lebanon´s cultural, intellectual and literary life today. The study focuses on the theme of memory in Khoury´s novels. In the light of the Lebanese civil war of 1975-1990 memory has turned into a disputed and often neglected find in Lebanon. As the study shows, not only do Khoury´s novels hold on to the memory of the civil war and transmit it at a time when memory itself is threatened, memory in its turn effects the novels´ narrative structure. The study takes inspriration from narratology, especially Gérard Genette, and from Walter Benjamin´s writings on memory and history.
