- Mirrored Loss combines ethnography with memory studies and historical and political analysis, interpreting the experiences of a Yemeni woman whose family spearheaded the first constitutional movement on the Arabian Peninsula. The author made use of private archives including handwritten biographical data, letters, photos, and genealogies, the interpretation of which required expert cultural knowledge gained over several decades of research. The study’s composition was a multi-layered process of exploring the woman’s life from inter-generational and gendered perspectives, and takes into account her concern with historical restitution which contributes to ongoing debates about the trajectory of a significant 20th century political movement.
