A psychological reading of Ahlam Mosteghanemi's thoughts through her book (their hearts are with us and their bombs are against us)

Abstract

Psychological critical studies of literary texts show the interrelationship between the psychological state of the writer and his productive creativity, and discover through them the intentions and ingredients emanating from the same writer. Her psyche is enmity and hatred. We find her in her book “Their Hearts with Us and Their Bombs Against Us” that she practiced depicting the social and political reality of the world, the Arab countries, and Iraq in particular, and she kept calling with all frankness and boldness to make her voice heard to the world and the Arab countries, and urging them with her loud tone to rise up against America, and anger And pain, enmity and despair smelled from her voice. She exaggerates if she wants to be sarcastic or upset. Extravagance overwhelms her mood and exhausts her nerves. Writing mixed with sarcasm is one of the methods she uses to heal her anger and internal hatred. Ahlam's sarcasm reaches the point of obscene satire. This article attempts, through the descriptive-analytical approach, to explore the psychological categories that overwhelm Ahlam's memory and cause enmity, hatred, and obscenity in her words. The easiest thing you can read about her and about her will cast in your mind the strong suspicion that her nerves are sound and the moderation of her senses. Then everything that we read in the folds of the lines of her articles are clues that we do not miss, and the definitive evidence of the disorder of her nerves and her soundness. There are many psychological factors that led to disappointment and fear in Ahlam Mosteghanemi, and planted enmity and hatred in her psyche. Among them: the loss of her father’s health, witnessing crises and assassinations in her country, the martyrdom of all her uncles and cousins in the battles against the occupation, her emigration and marriage in exile, The events of Iraq and its destruction, in which vengeance was sowed against America and the Arab nation
