الهوية وصورة الأنا والآخر في رواية "باطن الهواء (من أيام فلسطين)‎" لـ ياسمين يعقوب زهران

Abstract EN

This study attempts to shed light on the relationship between the image of the Palestinian ego and the Jew other in the novel "inside the air (in Palestine's days)" by the contemporary Palestinian novelist Yasmine Yaqoub Zahran.

by applying the analytical and descriptive approach, this relationship has been importantly featured through the duality of conflict and incompatibility.

additionally, it attempts to reveal the peculiarity of the novelist's identity and belongingness by presenting an image of the ego through different characters.

wherever these characters went, they basically strengthened the novelist's feeling of belongingness.

this has encouraged the novelist to prove and impose her identity in the presence of the other who seeks to obliterate and cancel its existence.

finally, this work highlights the novelist belongingness and emphasizes her national identity which were manifested through her desire to be free in her homeland, her absolute refusal to the Jew other as well as her categorical rejection to him.
