Historically, Palestinians inside and outside the diaspora detail their experiences of expulsion, humiliation, and persistent attachment to historic Palestine. These works of poetry, stories, narratives, and oral histories contain themes of nationalism and identity, turbulent connections to land and family, and the tragedies of experiencing a disintegrating Palestine. This paper explores these themes to understand how diaspora Palestinian authors conceptualize Palestine within their writing, and how this affects their relationship to it and other Palestinians through an analysis of their contemporary literature. This paper examines these themes by analyzing recent literature written by Palestinians in diaspora, focusing specifically on how they create an imaginative geography of Palestine that is founded upon stories and memories of the past, family connections, and intermittent visits instead of through a steady, anchored presence. By reevaluating their literature, this paper will document how the concept of Palestine is constructed through imagery, metaphorical language, symbolism, and memory, while considering how this affects the personal process of connecting to a land and people that are continually under siege and prone to rapid change both domestically or abroad. In order to analyze diaspora Palestinian conceptions within their writings, I will look solely at their literature translated into English, or written directly in English which are compiled into different anthologies and collections. I will compare and contrast how different authors construct the idea of Palestine through various literary prose, methods, and practices. The findings of this paper will not only humanize Palestinians in the eyes of academia, but just as importantly highlight a crucial aspect of how Palestinians construct and continually replenish their national identity, but also how they become connected to one another across short and long distances in relation to their conception of Palestine.
