Abstract

The article examines how marginalized individuals like Enayat al-Zayyat struggle to preserve their legacy within institutional structures that prioritize certain narratives. It discusses Enayat's absence from official records and literary canons, reflecting broader issues of neglect and erasure. It is reported that the archive, meant to preserve collective memory, becomes a site of nihilism when it overlooks contributions deemed insignificant by dominant cultural narratives.
