آداب الرافدين (Jun 1974)
Fiction among the Arabs and the Arab liberation movement
Abstract
The Arab nation tried, during the course of the years of this century, to search for itself and define its personality, after the features of this personality were blurred, under the influence of factors outside its will with colonial motives, silencing the free tongues in our homeland. The Arab countries have found themselves under the weight of foreign occupation since Hulagu, the Franks and the foreign nations took possession of this homeland. And she found herself suffering under the rumors of this colonialism at home. And this or that has played a dangerous role in directing the economies of these countries, just as thought has directed different directions towards serving this economy. This and that had an effective impact on Arabic literature in general, and on the language of performance and expression of this literature in particular. Literature has become a means of making money and a means of approaching rulers, wiping away the thresholds, and wasting face for the sake of a morsel of affection, money that he enjoys, or a position above which an opportunist stirs up by the enemies of the homeland. The story and the novel had not yet entered the framework of literature. It was special literature, and they viewed these two literary sexes with a look of contempt and contempt until the early part of this century as if they were inspired by their contempt for these two literary sexes from their contempt for the great Thousand and One Nights, which created fictional literature in the West, and added it to every fictional product, and they did not find in the popular biographies a crescent. And Al-Antariya and other stories of Al-Shaibi are not a tool to entertain the public and keep them away from their original cause, and Sahl Hasheesh. These adventures that this biographies abound to keep them away from the scandals that were committed by the rulers through side paths and individual rivalries in cafes and private societies, in which these biographies are read. Walking is a means of political distraction that is viewed with contempt as a popular literature made for people to laugh and for keeping away from the struggle for a decent life.
