Saloua Ben Zahra

I come from Tunisia where I have worked as an Assistant Professor of American and British literature at the University of Tunis.I received a B.A. in English and Italian from the University of Tunis-Carthage. After earning my B.A, I pursued an M.A. and a Ph.D. (2002) from the University of Minnesota’s English department. My dissertation on “Representations of Disability in Postcolonial Arab/Muslim Literature and Culture” illustrates my inter-disciplinary interests in Disability Studies, Body theory, Postcolonial literature, Middle Eastern and North African cultures, films and fictions, including Francophone Maghrebian literature. I am honored to teach as a lab instructor at the Macalester department of French and Francophone Studies this year and experience once again the free, open, diverse, and warm environment of the American university that I came to cherish after 6 years at the University of Minnesota.
