    Examines the representation of aging men and women in the modern Arabic novelThe first study to focus on aging as it is understood, practiced and problematised in the modern Arabic novelOffers close readings of 16 novels, including semi-autobiographies, bringing together authors from Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Tunisia and Egypt published since the 1950sIncorporates younger as well as older, and female as well as male, authors in a bid to distinguish between their representations of the aging processMakes use of feminist theories of aging and gerontology that focus on sexism and ageismThere are more than 15 million people aged over 65 currently living in the MENA region, yet little attention has been paid to the cultural significance of growing old. This book recognises the widespread silence by countering the critical corpus that reads modern Arabic novels as a political discourse with an emphasis on youth achievement. By assembling a range of fictional works from different parts of the Arab world that incorporate older characters, this book draws on a range of theoretical approaches to aging, particularly from the perspective of gender and feminism, to reconcile the biological and cultural understandings of old age. It reveals that there is no standard female or male experience and no single prototype of oldness in the modern Arabic novel, and that men and women manifest a multiplicity of identities, concerns, and experiences as they grow older

    A sound mind in a healthy body. Galen ; Petrarch ; Ficino and Zerbi ; Cornaro ; Erasmus ; Montaigne ; Conclusion -- The circulation of power and knowledge. Petrarch ; Castiglione ; Montaigne ; Conclusion -- Love in old age. Petrarch ; Ronsard ; Montaigne ; Pasquier; Conclusion -- Then and now. The care of the aging self ; Erasmus's colloquium The old men's chat" ; A way of life and a mode of discourse : the case of Montaigne ; In vino veritas. In 'Aging Gracefully in the Renaissance: Stories of Later Life from Petrarch to Montaigne' Cynthia Skenazi explores a shift in attitudes towards aging and provides a historical perspective on a crucial problem of our time. From the late fourteenth to the end of the sixteenth centuries, the elderly subject became a point of new social, medical, political, and literary attention on both sides of the Alps. A movement of secularization tended to dissociate old age from the Christian preparation for death, re-orienting the concept of aging around pragmatic matters such as health care, intergenerational relationships, and accrued insights one might wish to pass along. Such changes were accompanied by an increasing number of personal accounts of later life

    What do literary texts tell us about growing old? The essays in this volume introduce and explore representations of ageing and old age in canonical works of English and Postcolonial Literature. The contributors take a look at texts by William Shakespeare, Daniel Defoe, Julian Barnes, Thomas Kinsella, Seamus Heaney, J.M. Coetzee, Alice Munro, Withi Ihimaera and Patricia Grace and suggest solutions - with the help of a Medical study - to the challenges that come with the current demographic change brought about by ageing Western populations.
