الزمن السردي في حكايات ألف ليلة و ليلة

Abstract EN

The most important component of the narration that makes the text narrated during nights a narrative structure is the time.

In our study to analyze the structure of time in the narrative structure, we will distinguish between the time of storytelling as in the text, ie the chronology of events as occurred and the time in the narrative structure, which means the way the narrator arranges those events.

In the tales of the Thousand and One Nights, Shehrazad was able to create from Shahriar a participant in the text of the stories and he had to contribute to its creativity and re-creation, all through the internal feeling of time which does not match with the external time that was imposed on him before hearing Tales.

We have taken the recent studies of the structurlism on the structure of time and especially what Gerard Djnit method to apply to the stories of nights by finding the different time structures used in narrating the thousand and one nights.

In this context, we have mentioned the sections of time such as order, permanence, frequency and its types in the stories.

The the hard times that Scheherazad went through made it possible for her to take time-control approaches to achieve her goals made the king in suspension and waiting.

This led to the use of time in multiple forms to suspend the story in various artistic ways
