Abstract EN

This study attempts to shed light on the approach used by Tzvetan Todorov in the analysis of narrative text.

And the reason given for this selection lies in the integrated vision of this critic.

Narrative text, under this frame, is divided into two aspects: story and discourse.

Therefore, understanding the unity of literary work depends on the necessity of drawing a distinction between them.

He has treated in the first aspect the logic of tenses, the characters and their relationships.

But, in the second aspect, he deals with the time of narrative, its manifestations , and its patterns.

Todorov’ s method of analysis is, however, they cannot be separated from one another.

Here lies the importance of this approach in the analysis of narrative text in general and novelistic text in particular.

Therefore , this study will focus on presenting this approach theoretically and practically (Ibrahim El Kawni’s story of the allissane as a model) due to flexibility in analyzing.
