العنونة في القصص القصيرة عند زكي العيلة

الملخص EN

The choice of the title is a reflection of the extent of the writer's ability to achieve compatibility and harmony between the composition of the text and its title, and it is considered a measure of reaching the comprehensiveness of the meaning, this is from the side of direct analysis of the title text and its comparison with the content of the text, but it is worth mentioning that this is not the only condition for judging the title and highlighting its significance and extent Its harmony with the text, because harmony is not evident often within the judgment on the title of a single story, but if we look at the sequence of stories and shed light on them as one structure, harmony may be achieved significantly, and by dropping this judgment on the significance of the title in a group of writer Zaki's stories, we will find that most of the titles selected for his short stories have connotations that are closely related and embrace the significance of the narrative content of Al-Ayla’s stories, especially in his very short stories, for example (Their banners, Preachers, The Military Who Spread), as well as in his story collections such as (Walls from Blood, A Deep Gray Sea, Thirst), but with varying criteria in terms of compatibility between the title and the content, and these are estimates that may differ from one critic to another and even from one recipient to another .

The diversity in semantics is the most characteristic of the stories of the writer Zaki Al-Ayla.

We find that the title bears a material symbolism, while the content focuses on the people whom the writer makes the epicenter of events.

And the character begins to impose itself through the events of the story and remains inherent to it from beginning to end, where it interacts with most of the events the story narrates; and that is evident in the story (The Compass), which dealt with many characters and was the basic structure of the events of the story.

As well as (walls from blood),where the focus was on one character more than others, and what is meant here is to link this to the significance of the title in these stories and to show the creativity of the writer in choosing the title, taking it for a certain symbolism and then attaching it to the events of the story through the person who is the focus of its events.

It is worth mentioning that the Al-Ayla made the spirit of resistance present in most of his literary works and did not depart from its framework even in the stories that dealt with events about love, and this appears in the story of (Other Windows for the Reveal), in which he made the hymns of the details of the lovers in it do not forget the conscience of the camp, and this confirms His full commitment to the principles that he embarked on from the beginning
