Abstract EN
Life is created for a reason.
Hence, everything in this life has its reason for existence, because nothing can come out of nothing.
There must be a basis and a root for any obtainable subject matter.
To do, to make or to write signifies there must be some further reason, which lies behind it.
Authors just like any other scientists, workers and experts believe that they should become innovators.
To write any sort of literary writings one should add or innovate or at least something meaningful and useful to reflect the raison d'être that pushes them forward to do such a thing.
This paper tries to study two authors' works, Ghassan Kanafani (1936-1972) in his novella Returning to Haifa (1970), and Anne Holm in her novella I am David(1963).
Accordingly their works, life and what has been written about them is going to be surveyed so that this work will try to figure out the raison d'être to know the thing that gives meaning or purpose to their works, or the justification for their existence.
This work also tries to figure out the parallel and the paradox raison d'état and the overriding concern, the interests of the country concerned, and that will justify a political or a diplomatic action which might, otherwise, be considered reprehensible.
