Talk:Moroccan literature

Foreign writers writing about Morocco are not part of Moroccan literature

I have just deleted the following paragraph about foreign writers in Morocco, as they are not part of Moroccan literature. Rather their writing should be mentioned in their personal articles. "During the 1950s and 1960s, Morocco was also a temporary destination for writers from abroad, such as Paul Bowles, Tennessee Williams, Brion Gysin, William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac."

Classical antiquity

As there are no RS stating that the Phoenician and Latin literature named in this section can rightfully be considered as part of Moroccan literature, I have hidden this section. Munfarid1 (talk) 14:14, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

modern Moroccan literature needs expansion

The section about Literary production before the Years of Lead could be expanded, and all modern Moroccan literature since then should be added. As it is, this article practically ends with independence. Munfarid1 (talk) 09:48, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

Copyediting and suggestions for further work to be done

I have just done a comprehensive revision of copyediting and deleted several images that are not really giving much information about the literature. WP is not a picture book, and images should be used in an appropriate number so as not to distract from the text. - Also, just as other articles about country-specific literatures of North Africa and West Asia, this article is meant to be about Moroccan literature as a national literature, made up of various linguistic traditions. - So even the Andalusi and other periods before Moroccan independence can only be considered as forerunners and historical writing by authors who lived and wrote in the region called Morocco. In other words, there is a difference between authors writing in pre-modern Morocco and those that constitute the history of Moroccan learning and literature of all kinds. The article talks a lot about learned writers of non-fiction works without making the difference between learned non-fiction writing and fiction literature in the modern sense. This should be clearly explained in the early section of the article. And since there is a huge number of modern fiction writing by Moroccan authors, this would merit a separate article.
