L'aspect thématique de Djihad dans le théâtre de Ismael Saidi
Abstract
The thematic aspect of “Jihad” in the theater of Ismaël Saïdi The evolution of the theater is always articulated in competition with the development of its themes due to the fact that the playwright most often presents to his audience plays containing themes that are familiar to him, which are drawn from the time in which he lives and which evoke for him an obvious reality, which he could witness. In this context, it should be noted that Jihad represents one of the themes that have occupied a primordial place on the international scene in recent decades. This is why certain studies have been carried out in order to deal with this phenomenon and to determine its dimensions and main causes. Insofar as the theater was forever and still remains the most faithful and sensitive barometer of the social, sociological and ideological changes of the human race, it extends to play a major role in order to shed light on this paradoxical phenomenon and dealing with it. Certain courageous contemporary playwrights, of whom we stopped on Ismaël Saïdi, did not hesitate to take the step to treat this topic via their dramatic works. This author does not only seek to approach jihad from his dramatic art, but rather he gave the name to one of his plays, "Djihad" which appeared in 2014 and which represents the object of this study.
