The critical discourse on the short story in beginnings and endings according to Dr. Thaer Al-Adhari

Abstract

The critic's study of defining the short story was characterized by an evasion that does not settle on a specific form. Although many critics deal with the story in terms of the novel, the vision of this art has been obscured; He resorted to discovering the aesthetics of the short story that the reader and student feel, but they cannot talk about it unless there is a corrective system specific to the story. So, Al-Adhari shows that the function of the modern critic is very different from its function in traditional criticism, as it is no longer the function of the known one of explanation and interpretation as is known, or that it serves as a link between the text and the reader as is known, but in modern criticism he represents the creator (the second or third text). According to the text subject to criticism, it is like a thinker or philosopher who reveals its contradictions and multiple readings. Al-Adhari resorts to the title, beginning, and end on which the short story is based. It consists of analysis and scrutiny by providing texts explaining the technique for each of the types he referred to
