-- Yoel Shalom Perez is a folklorist who, in the 1980s, conducted extensive fieldwork focusing on the narrative tradition of Bedouin tribes in the north of Israel. He collected and recorded the tales, mostly in Arabic. Judith Rosenhouse is a linguist who conducted the first linguistic research on the spoken language of the Bedouin tribes in the Galilee. This collection is the result of their many years of collaboration. -- A goal of the list in Middle East studies is to democratize the perspectives through which the stories are told. Often this means that we emphasize research which foregrounds the lived experiences of people as explained through the research of academics working in the field. Here, this book brings the stories of the Bedouin directly into English translation. -- For many this work will prove to be a primary source for their research and as such it promises to make an important and lasting contribution to the list. -- The audience is truly interdisciplinary. The work will appeal to linguists, folklorists, and anthropologists. It will also appeal to scholars working on the Middle East, particularly those focused on literature, history, Jewish and Islamic narrative traditions, and gender.
