سؤال الهوية والمقاومة في رواية مصابيح أورشليم لعلي بدر

Abstract EN

This research paper examines the trend of identity of the ego construction in the imagination of the other.

the latter who deliberately drew stereotypes and delusional images, which raise the effectiveness of the narrative discourse along with its orientalist counterpart and their strength to the level of absolute truth that includes in its depth the identity and essence of the self and the subject of its desire at the same time.

within the framework of what is called in the field of post-colonial studies cultural resistance, the ego shaped in the most recent workshops, sought to undermine the structures of its discourses in addition to its knowledge and cultural texts loyal to the aspirations of the authority and its imperialist orientations.

this epistemological circulation, which was the focus of post-colonial theory, in the context of its revision and displacement of those grand narratives cultivated by western colonialism, was grabbed by the Iraqi novelist (Ali Badr) and then was dropped in his novel (lamps of Jerusalem), which monitored, among other things, maps of Palestinian self-identity formulation in the mirror of the Jewish other as well as the methods of cultural resistance and response.

accordingly, this will be a central theme for our approach.
