Abstract EN

Time has always been the present - the most important absentee in the production equation of any artwork that depends on the stability and stillness of space.

With the realization that progress in ideas, sciences, and techniques presented aesthetic suggestions for time as interim inputs that were not available before, art, from its first documentation until pre-modern times, has suggestions and solutions based on activating the imagination of this inherent element.

Hence the subject of the search for a time stage deep in human civilization, in search of the nature of the investment of time in the fine artistic work between the limits of length and width only, and on the system of succession of vocabulary until the completion of the chosen event.

The title (The sequence and temporal compression of the narration of the event in ancient Iraqi art) was the starting line for conducting a research according to the academic methodology, beginning with the first chapter, which it contained the research problem, its importance and the need for it, in order to reach the goal of the research, which was (discovering the mechanism of achieving succession and temporal compression when listing the event on the pictorial surface in ancient Iraqi art) and then defining the title terms.

As for the second chapter, it contained a set of titles for theorizing, starting with the problematic of time, passing through the time of narration, then the plastic treatments of time, stopping at the techniques of ancient art, and concluding with the indicators of the theoretical framework.

After that, the third chapter was for the research procedures, where the community, the sample, the method used, and the analysis of the selected sample were determined according to the requirements of the research tool.

While the fourth chapter was the most important results and conclusions, as it was among the most important results of the research: • Time pressure is related to the event space and its realistic consumption, especially since the events are of an unconventional nature and not from what happens daily, so the realization of their time was more unique.

• Each frieze in the sample samples possessed temporal independence, despite being part of a total time spread over the artistic work space.

This independence provided a clear diversity in the identity of the time.
