Mostafa Nissaboury

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nissaboury was co-founder of the magazine Anfas/Souffles.

Mostafa Nissaboury (born in Casablanca in 1943) is a Moroccan poet[1][2] and was a co-founder of the magazine Anfas/Souffles ("Breaths") with Abdellatif Laabi. Nissaboury was primarily involved in writing essays and poetry. The magazine Souffles was banned in 1971.[3]

In an interview in 2016 with Le360, when asked about the magazine's political stances he declared he was no longer part of the magazine staff at the time.[4]

In 1964, alongside Mohammed Khaïr-Eddine, Nissaboury wrote the manifest "Poésie Toute," an important milestone in the history of Moroccan literature.[5] In Casablanca, he opened a house solely devoted to poetry. His works greatly contributed to the renewal of Moroccan poetry.[6]
