The exilic state of the colonizer

الملخص EN

The colonizers cry out their hostility and animosity; whatever experience they went through, they express a need to speak of themselves.

essentially, the theme of exile provides an insight into the exiled state of mind.

it is a curse and damnation, a punishment, a psychological burden which is the exile’s essential source of pain.

it “is not, after all, a matter of choice: you are bom into it, or it happens to you” (said,2(x)3:184).

the exile is oriented to a distant place and feels that he does not belong where he lives.

usually he longs to return to the homeland and anticipates the joy of return.

it is a story of disorientation, of a crisis of belonging.

it implies damnation, castigation, diffidence, anguish and also salvation and a everlasting hope for return.
