Arabic literature is extensive, and riddles are a major genre within it. Scholarly research has found that we can 'speak of the Arabic riddle as a discrete phenomonen', with distinctive features marking it out from other world riddle-traditions (Michael L. Chyet, ' "A Thing the Size of Your Palm": A Preliminary Study of Arabic Riddle Structure', Arabica, 35 (1988), 267-92 (p. 291).) Arabic-language riddles have been the subject of targeted academic research. Although this article, as it stands, is a small beginning, the distinctive character of the Arabic-language riddle tradition means that it deserves more precise coverage than the entry for
Riddles can afford. By the same token, the article for
Novel has not precluded articles on particular national, regional, and linguistic traditions in novels, such as
Ancient Greek novel,
Byzantine novel,
British regional literature, and
Picaresque novel.
