This dissertation explores the pedagogical value of postcolonial texts via Edward Said's concept of the "voyage in." Through readings of novels by the North African writers Ibrahim al-Koni, Assia Djebar, Naguib Mahfouz, and Nuruddin Farah, it provides a path for English readers to recognize and engage with suppressed and marginalized histories, cultures, and modes of thought. This "path" is termed the "return journey" and is proposed as a pedagogical practice framed in the language of Ranciere's panecastic philosophy. First, this dissertation argues that the Bleeding of the Stone and Gold Dust by al-Koni are as much allusion to experiences of exile driven by political and environmental turmoil-represented in his use of the term essuf-as they are narratives of a spiritual timeless desert. Second, it asserts via A Sister to Scheherazade, Fantasia, and So Vast the Prison that Djebar's literary style draws directly from Arab and indigenous oral tradition in its exploration of the complexities of silence and voice. Third, it unveils the idea of a divine non-pathological love in Mahfouz's The Cairo Trilogy and how such love offers an epistemology normally excluded from "rational Western" discourse. These readings demonstrate the concepts at work in Ranciere's panecastic philosophy: via Al-Koni and Djebar, the possibility of relation between things/ideas which exceed Western frames; via Mahfouz, the role love plays in the engagement of the human will to see and understand; and via Farah in the Conclusion, the English reader's experience of alienation which ideally ends in a more precise knowledge of their own and others' cultures. A defensive perspective ("the militarized perspective") stands in opposition to the panecastic method by refusing all relations other than its own and proffering essentialism in the place of reality (such as the idea of a true "West"). By reading postcolonial North African writers in comparison with official "Western" narratives which essentialize both the people they write on (the "East") as well as the idea of a "West" themselves, this dissertation highlights nonessential modes of alterity originating from the postcolonial world and the pedagogical promise of reading texts from the region in translation.
