SDC support to authors

Dr Jaber Al Nuaimi explained that SDC supports authors in publishing their work in various fields, including criticism, short stories, novels, poetry, theatre, children's literature, academic theses, media, and visual arts.

Speaking exclusively to “Sharjah 24,” Al Nuaimi added that the department publishes what authors present in terms of knowledge, ideas and literature on the Arab scene, the Emirati scene and the global scene, noting that his book is entitled “Employing Folk Heritage in the Emirati Theatrical Text”, which is a doctoral thesis that explains how the Emirati playwright makes heritage material an active factor in serving the theatrical text on the one hand, and criticising reality and employing it for the future on the other hand.
