Re: ام كلثوم الدور الذي لعبته والدور الذي لم تلعبه
I personally don't find anything wrong at all in Baha2 Eddine's posts. He was actually quoting Elias Sa7ab, who is a great admirer of Umm Kulthum. Sa7ab's point was that we need to study Umm Kulthum's phenomenon from a very analytical and scientific approach, and not merely from a gossip, superficial approach. He acknoweldges Umm Kulthum as not only a legendary voice, but also as a pillar of 20th century Arabic identity and culture, and calls for a deeper analysis of who she was and what she represented.
SALAM!
