释义 |
Mutanabbi Street (Arabic: شارع المتنبي) is located in Baghdad, Iraq, near the old quarter of Baghdad; at Al Rasheed Street.[1] It is the historic center of Baghdad bookselling, a street filled with bookstores and outdoor book stalls. It was named after the 10th-century classical Iraqi poet Al-Mutanabbi. This street is well established for bookselling and has often been referred to as the heart and soul of the Baghdad literacy and intellectual community. A car bomb exploded and killed 26 people on Mutanabbi Street on March 5, 2007, leaving the area littered and unsafe for shoppers, and destroying many businesses.[2] In response to the bombing, Deema Shehabi and Beau Beausoleil edited an anthology in 2012 called Al-Mutanabbi Street Starts Here of people's responses to the bombing. The 100 contributors included Yassin Alsalman and Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Anthony Shadid, among others.[2] On December 18, 2008, Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki officially reopened the street after a long period of cleanup and repair.[3] GalleryReferences1. ^The death of Al Mutanabbi Street 2. ^{{cite news|last1=Bramley|first1=Ellie Violet|title=Literary project honours Baghdad's devastated bookselling district|url=https://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/jan/21/literary-project-baghdad-bookselling-district|accessdate=18 April 2015|publisher=The Guardian|date=21 January 2014|location=London}} 3. ^1 {{cite news|title=Then and Now: A New Chapter for Baghdad Book Market|url=http://baghdadbureau.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/12/18/then-and-now-a-new-chapter-for-baghdad-book-market/?hp | work=The New York Times | first=Eric | last=Owles | date=December 18, 2008 | accessdate=May 19, 2010}} External links
