دلالة فضائي البادية والمدينة في رواية سرهو لمولود فرتوني

Abstract EN

In this paper, we sought to reveal the connotations symbolized by the structure of the textual place, in Serho's novel by Mouloud Fertouni, based on the assumption that the textual place is not satisfied with the decorative function that consists of describing its Euclidean dimensions and external appearance, but rather goes beyond an ideological significance and a symbolic extension.

we have chosen the dualistic approach of the desert and the city, which has emerged remarkably in the novel, and we relied in the dualistic approach on a semi-structural reading, based on the dismantling and rebuilding of the spatial structure, in a way that enables reading the significance of its units in their regularity and interrelationship, with the use of the concept of spatial polarities as an effective procedural tool; as well as it can be relied on in revealing the poetic place and interrogating the cultural models to which the spatial structure of the desert-city dichotomy refers in the novel.
