تمثلات الأنا و الآخر في رواية شرق المتوسط لعبد الرحمن منيف

Abstract EN

Arabian novel has been recognized, since the 19th century with its incarnation of, the ego, and, the other, expressing two opposite selves, showing various forms and perspectives .This dichotomy was found among the human cultures before its appearance in fictional works.

On this basis, the choice of novel in the above–mentioned title was on purpose since it sheds light on the political struggle between authority and the individua and their relation to, the other, differently .

Studying such dichotomy necessitates the division of the research into two basic parts, preceded by a preliminary part explaining concepts such as representation , ego, and otherness and the relation between the last two ones in a complementarily way that cannot be split.

The presence of the ego necessitates the existence of the other .

The first section is specified to the study of ego representations (oppressed ego and defeated ego).

Section two is devoted to the representations of , the other , which is further divided into two parts.

The first one is concerned with the representation of the other and its relation with the ego experiencing two aspects : internal other, and external other, which are further sub–divided.

The second part examines the place as being ''the other'' also in relation to the presence of the ego successively : prison, ship , and west .

The research then presents some important conclusions followed by a list of resources.
