Notes
The contemporary world is witnessing an increasing interest in history and issues of memory, and this has been reflected in the novel by a trend in writing that questions history and digs into the corridors of memory. The Algerian novel has been involved in this trend, similar to the novel “The Spartan Diwan” by Abdel Wahab Issawi, which stopped at the French invasion of Algeria and the expulsion of the Ottomans from it. This study aims to shed light on the combinations of history and memory at the theoretical and applied levels. In the first part, we touched on the narrative nature of history and the historical novel, and we came to adopt the term “historical imagination” to express the fragility of the boundaries between history and the novel. On the other hand, the redefinition of history led to an escalation of interest in memory in historical and literary studies, as the novel became an important medium of memory. In the second part, we analyzed the recall of memory and historical reference at the level of threshold discourse, and the polyphonic narrative structure that allows for multiple memories, and we allocated methods of allegorical intertextuality (diaries, letters), historical intertextuality, and marginal memory. The contemporary world is witnessing an increasing interest in history and memory's issues, and this was reflected in a novelist way of writing that questions history and digs into the corridors of memory. The Algerian novel has become involved in this direction, as we note recently that novelists have focused on recent and less close history with different visions of the perceptions about the past, such as the novel “Addiwan al-Isparti” by Abdel-Wahab Aissaoui, which stood at the time of France’s invasion of Algeria and the expulsion of the Ottomans from it. This study aims to shed light on the interactions of history and memory on both the theoretical and practical levels. The adoption of the term "historical imagination" to express the fragility of the boundaries between history and the novel, on the other hand, the redefinition of history led to an escalation of interest in memory in historical and literary studies, as the novel became an important mediator of memory. In the second part, we analyzed the recall of memory and historical reference. In the narration studied at the level of thresholds discourse, and the polyphonic narrative structure that allows multiple memories, we devoted methods of intertextuality (Diaries, Letters, etc.), historical intertextuality and margin memory.
