Trauma of Survival and the Politics of Memory in Emile Habiby's The Secret Life of Saeed: The Pessoptimist
Abstract: Emile Habiby’s the Secret Life of Saeed: The Pessoptimist (1974) presents one of the most innovative and politically complex literary responses to the Palestinian Nakba and its enduring consequences. Through a distinctive fusion of satire, irony, absurdity, political allegory, and fragmented narration, Habiby departs from conventional representations of trauma and resistance. Rather than portraying Palestinian survival as a heroic or triumphant process of recovery, the novel presents survival as an …

The Effects of Stress on Memory
Abstract: Stress throws the organisms’ body out of homeostatic balance. The physiological stress response acts by activation of two systems to balance the disturbance: the SNS and the HPA-axis. Stress has enhancing and impairing effects on memory processes: encoding, consolidation, and retrieval. These opposite effects may be explained if the different time courses of stress hormone, in particular catecholamine and GC actions are taken into account. This review will access the …
