Spatial World Manifestations in Contemporary Algerian Novels: The Case of Confessions of Hamed El-Mansi by Al-Azhar Attia as a Model
Keywords:
Novelistic space, spatial space, imaginary space, Algerian novel, Al-Azhar Attia.Abstract
The current research paper has fundamentally attempted to cast light upon the myriad layers of the aesthetics of spatialization in the novel Confessions of Hamed El-Mansi viewing it as one of the most saliently significant semantic dimensions of literary creativity. The chief aim underpinning carrying out this research work has primarily been to unearth the various manifestations of its impact on shaping the different features making up the narrative world by virtue of observing the shifts that these geographical spaces have taken in their formation within the fictional narrative text, which goes far beyond geometric features. It attains this thanks to the language deployed pertinent for expressing the characters' ideas, perceptions, and values, i.e.the reciprocal relationships holding between spaces and the characters who move within them.
