 abstract={This paper attempts to investigate the hybrid imagination in selected works by Mohja Kahf, a Syrian-American poet (born 1967, Damascus, Syria) . The term hybrid imagination is coined by the researcher drawing on both 18th century Romanticism and the contemporary post-colonial theory.},
 abstract={Kahf`s attempts at cultural reconciliation and human understanding are fraught with both pains and pleasures . Yet her ability to foster her hybrid imagination seems to allow her to choose a ?Third Space? between two roads . The road not taken by Kahf is the essentialist position of identity which is either ?purely Arab? or ?entirely and exclusively American?.},
 abstract={Her novel and her poetry, as this paper attempts to investigate, seem to open ?a Third Space? for both the poet and her readers, and to create a Utopia which poetry can sanction and publicize . Drawing on Homi Bhabha`s theory of hybridity, and on earlier definitions of the imagination by the Romantics, the paper will attempt to explore Kahf`s mechanisms (conscious or otherwise) which help open up and maximize such third space .},
