Jihene Khammassi Biography

Jihene Khamassi

My name is Jihene Khammassi. I was born in June 16,1987, in Tunis (Tunisia) . I obtained my baccalaureate certificate in 2006, and I have been studying English in the Higher Institute of Human Sciences at Tunis since 2007. I am currently a fourth year student, and my branch is Academic Purposes, which encompasses literature (novel, drama, and poetry) , civilization (American and British) , linguistics, translation, critical theory, and advanced writing. During the summer of 2009, I was among the privileged elites who attended an English language training at the Language Village Nabeul.

At the intellectual level, I am zealous about reading novels and plays. My favorite writers are Ken Follet, Tennessee Williams, Charles Dickens and many others. When I was at school I displayed a special skill at writing short plays, which my teachers rejoiced a lot. I am now a non-fiction writer. Accordingly, writing triggers and refurbishes my dormant will to write about the Other, through whom I perceive myself, and for the Other, in whom I see a potential critic and broadminded addressee.
