Culture and Customs of Libya (Culture and Customs of Africa)
Description:
Ideal for high school students and undergraduates, this volume explores contemporary life and culture in Libya.
Libya is one of Africa's largest nations, but its topography is dominated by a huge southern desert with some of the hottest temperatures recorded anywhere in the world. Culture and Customs of Libya explores the daily lives of the 90 million men, women, and children who struggle to get by in this authoritarian state, where only a fraction of the land is arable and 90 percent of the people live in less than 10 percent of the area, primarily along the Mediterranean coast.
In this comprehensive overview of modern Libyan life, readers can explore topics such as religion, contemporary literature, media, art, housing, music, and dance. They will learn about education and employment and will see how traditions and customs of the past―including those from Libya's long domination by the Ottoman Empire and 40 years as an Italian colony―are kept alive or have evolved to fit into today's modern age.
