Reader's eye. Eye of the critic. Painter's eye. Photographer's eye. Artist's eye. Journalist's eye. Many other eyes have become part of the dictionary of terms used in this era, and it happens that a person tells himself or others to read a specific text with the eyes of the reader, not the critic, or vice versa.
How many eyes do we have?
Is the eye the first key to receiving, understanding and interpretation? Or is it just an intermediary?
There is no doubt that the interpretation of texts cannot take place without reading them (hearing is a form of reading), and that a text that is not read or heard cannot be interpreted. Therefore, these parties overlap so much that it is impossible to do without one over the other.
Existential thought in Ali Abu Al-Rish’s novels:
What is noticeable about these scientific and written productions is that they differ in terms of depth, depth, methods, and formulations. Among those great pioneers, Professor Ali Abu Al-Rish stands out, who paved his way steadily, creatively, since the first novel by Professor Abu Al-Rish, which was “The Confession” in 1982, which won among the 100 best Arab novels and ranked 33rd among them at the time. We must take into account that this victory was the first novel his mind wrote, and the first novel his mind came up with, so it comes within the appropriate choice. This is strong and clear evidence of creativity from its beginnings. I believe that Professor Ali, in many of his writings and narrations, draws from the treasures of heritage, accompanies the events of history, looks at the past with a positive outlook, addresses the issues of the present, and looks to the future with his thoughts. That is why you find all these spaces in his publications, many of which revolve around deep philosophical thought that enriched and influenced his intellectual production. Among the aesthetics of the image according to my friend, Professor Ali, is its impression of the local character at times, while highlighting the features of Arabism, the effects of morals, and the manifestations of customs and traditions within the general framework of socialization. Drawing from the stock of heritage is in itself a kind of nostalgia, or what is known as nostalgia, for the past of grandparents and parents, but in its positive, creative, renewed form.
