Employing the miraculous characters of One Thousand and One Nights in the Arabic novel

Description

Abstract: Al-Ajabi has a presence in modern Arabic literature, especially the novel. It has been used in many fictional texts in different forms, especially since they have benefited from the Arab heritage, including what is important to us, what it has benefited from from One Thousand and One Nights, and its use in its novelistic project, so much so that it has given it a specificity that takes forms as it is an element. Or a structure in the novel, and the heritage combines with the techniques of the novel in order to produce a new method in dealing with a new vision of the world that is linked to the past and the supernatural, to dignity and miracles. The writer, with this employment, works to renew and overturn the traditional form and search for new laws concerned with a wondrous, irregular world that excites the recipient, and we must address To the concept of the miraculous, despite the many studies that dealt with this concept linguistically and terminologically, in order to reach an understanding of the nature of the employment achieved by the three novelists, Naguib Mahfouz, Hani Al-Raheb, and Wasini Al-Araj, the models chosen for study in which the employment of these miraculous characters was achieved.
