ghassan kanfani symbolic approach to women

ghassan kanafani (1936-1972) is one of the most famous palestine romancers who has created different personality types in four romances of “men in the sun” ,” all that's left to you” ,” returning to haifa” , “umme sa'd”. symbolic personality is one of the most important personality types that he has given more attention to, whether feminine or masculine, they have been used abundantly in his four romances. perhaps it seems that kanafani’s symbolic view to the feminine personalities has increased the content and technical richness in his romances. but the writer’s insistence on highlighting the symbolic dimension of personalities in the two romances of ” all that's left to you” and “umme sa'd” , is a matter that has made difficulties for real dimensions of these personalities in theoretical and technical points of view and has limited their freedom. the origin of this problem refers to this fact that the writer’s commitment and prejudice to palestine in these two romances like his other romances, with enthusiasm and sensation follows to propose his idea about palestine’s daily crisis and problems and their solutions. the symbolic personalities of romances are the tools to propagate and to promote these frequently revolutionary ideas. therefore the main part of narrative and inherent potentials in these two romances, instead of dedicating to enhance the natural and humanism dimensions of woman personalities are dedicated to enhance the symbolic and mythological dimensions of personalities in order to convey the message of the romances completely.
