المفارقة الزمنية في سرد إسماعيل فهد إسماعيل الروائي

Abstract EN

This research explores the concept of the anachronism in novel narration, by applying it to some of the works of Ismail Fahd Ismail as a model.

it examines how anachronism the shapes the subjectivity of novelistic discourse, by analyzing the types of anachronism and their impact on the relationship between the text and the writer’s subjectivity, through the possible paradoxes of time, in how the narrative is able to express possibilities, doubts, and hypothetical matters regarding time.

this may add another layer to the paradox, as speakers navigate not only what happened or will happen, but what might or could have happened.

narratives are not just sequences of events, but rather complex temporal structures that reflect human understanding and experience of time.

for this reason, time formed a pivotal element in Ismail’s works, manifested in the intersections of time and its role in classifying narrative events.

before that, the research reviewed the concept of time in narrative and its importance in shaping narrative discourse, anachronism, and its effects on the development of the narrative event, by examining the opinions of a number of theorists on the anachronism.

and analyzing the role of time paradox in the types of time used, on the importance of time in shaping the narrative and the writer’s subjectivity, by exploring the multiple dimensions of time, from the past and present to the imagined future, so it is possible to monitor multiple points of view about life, memory, identity, and human and social changes.
