Kochin, PhD University of Chicago, Teaches politics, literature and film at Tel Aviv University.
Teaches comparative politics at Tel Aviv University. While critics are divided about the literary value of the book, nobody doubts its effects at the political or ideological level. This slim novel 'reflected current and dramatic political developments in real time and, at the same, explored the philosophical, ideological, and psychological meaning of these events and wove them into the fabric of European art and literature'.
This is both necessary to gain some perspective on a complex novel, and to gain some detachment from real-world events. The detached tone in this book matches that of Francois, the narrator in Submission.
This does not detract from the substance and force of many of the arguments, however: impact is not always felt from polemic. Directed especially to students and specialists in the area of comparative literature and comparative politics, focusing on the challenge of Islam to Western cultures and states.
