Abstract
More than one of us may at present question the place of our ancient Arabic literature and its modernity among the ethics of the world's peoples. What is the true value of Arab literature until it reaches universality? This paper attempts to respond from Taha Hussein's perspective to the site of Arab literature and the examination of the world through his 1956 Peruvian magazine "Literature", entitled "The Place of Arab Literature among Global Morals". It also tries to define the concepts of world literature and literature in multiple meanings without falling into their families, but rather to discuss and value them objectively and impartially.
Keywords
