| Omschrijving: | In “Adam’s Forgetting,” which is part of The Tongue of Adam (La Langue d’Adam, 1999; trans. Robyn Creswell, 2016), Moroccan writer Abdelfattah Kilito wonders, what language did Adam (the first Prophet of Islam) speak in paradise? He also investigates whether the first poem ever written is, as some classical Arabic sources of the Islamic tradition recount, an elegy that Adam himself wrote to grieve the murder of his son, Adam, by his other son, Cain. Through a reading of The Epistle of Forgiveness (Risālat al-Ghufrān; trans. Geert Jan Van Gelder, Gregor Schoeler, 2013) by the eleventh-century poet and thinker Abū al-ʿAlāʾ al-Maʿarrī, Kilito explores the relationship between the possibility of language and the act of forgetting. Here we present Kilito’s text translated into Spanish. |
