Abstract: Unrest marks the instability of any foundation wherever it spreads its roots. It weakens the superstructures and the bases that it integrates. Usually, it is viewed from opinion of big-wigs of society and the people belonging to lower strata who suffer most are ignored. Barthesian Codal analysis of the memoir, The Shell: Memoirs of A Hidden Observer weaved by Syrian Writer Mostafa Khalifa is done in this Research article in order to check the omniscient, focalized and subjective presence of the narrator and impacts of political restlessness on him. In this context the paper focuses on the implications of Barthesian model on the text and therefore, it extends the significance of the narrator in the respective work. This research on Syrian work is done by the utilization Roland Barthe Codal theory as a methodology keeping in view the qualitative mode of analysis. Keywords: Narratology, Focalisation, War Captive, incarcenation. 1. Introduction Socio- Political writings usually generate from the pens of those who are the observer of the system and the strong. When the writings of such significance are produced from the pen of Email: [email protected] Page 1 Literary Horizon An International Peer-Reviewed English Journal Vol. 1, Issue 3 www.literaryhorizon.com August, 2021 those who once have been on the side of weak, the pens bleed. Such people are stronger than the strong and they become the voice of all whom they advocate. The political situation of Syria is really in instability since the decades ago. The whole political system has polluted the institutions and harmed the public institutions to the fullest. The story of the memoir, The Shell: Memoirs of a Hidden Observer, shows the same brutality happening in the cell of Syria. 1.1 The Statement of the Problem This research proposal is based on the research problem keeping in focus, the impacts of torture in imprisonment during the time period of political unrest in special reference to The Shell: Memoirs of a Hidden Observer. It also engages the researcher in deciphering the implications of incarcenation on the mode of the narration in the text by the use of narratological models. 1.2 Objectives of the Study The following are the objectives of the study: 1. To the explore the connection between narration of text and Barthsian codes of narration. 2. To investigate the restlessness keeping in view the narrator of the text. 1.3 Research Questions The following research questions have provided the framework for the present study: 1. What are the grounds that show connection between narration and the Barthesian Codes? 2. What is the impact of incarcenation on the narration? 1.4 Methodology The research has been done by using the Roland Barthes Codal analysis of the text as a methodology. The research will be done keeping in view the narratological explication of the text. It will emphasize whether the novel can be studied under the theory of narratology with specification to Roland Barthes. It will study the following elements in the text.

Semantic Code (Connotational Code) 4. Symbolic Code 5. Cultural Code 1.5 Significance of the Study The significance of the research lies in the fact that it focuses on the geographical area that is marginalized by the rest of the world and people there are pressed as much as they can be. The human rights policies are recalled when such text and its authors become brave enough to give voice to himself and others suffering there or at any other place in the same way. It deals with significance of modes of narration, components of narration and narrator as a way of getting message across the readers. 1.6 Delimitations of the Study Substantial and close to truth works are created from the minds where they actually belong to. There is a huge need for the study of the texts that are born in the places that are mostly disconsolate and dejected there. Knowing what a nation thinks and feels is of utmost importance and therefore, there is dire need to study the thoughts and feelings of people there. It can be only done if the study of the works is done that are produced by the pens that they themselves hold. This research will primarily focus on the study of the translated chapter of ‗The Shell: Memoirs of a Hidden Observer‘ written by a Syrian writer Mostafa Kamal and translated by Ruth Ahmedzai Kemp. 2. Literature Review Email: [email protected] Page 3 Literary Horizon An International Peer-Reviewed English Journal Vol. 1, Issue 3 www.literaryhorizon.com August, 2021 This study will focus on the critical view of the related that have been done on the same work or the writer. An interview of the writer is also added to know how he thinks. It also brings in view the brief introduction of the writer and the text. 2.1 A Review of related Researches Khalifa was born in 1948 in Syria and therefore he spent his childhood in Aleppo. There he began to work in political activities which were in turbulance. As a result, he was sent to prison twice. Upon his release, Khalifa left Syria and made his way towards France. He studied art and film direction there, and was arrested at Damascus airport when he returned from Paris. From 1982-1994, Khalifa was held a captive without trial at various state security prisons, including the infamous Tadmur Prison. The story, The Shell: Memoirs of A Hidden Observer, seems an outcome of those harsh experiences. As in an interview he says, „There is a lot of me in the protagonist, as well as part of a friend whose story has similarities.‟ (Khalifa) In an interview, Mustafa Khalifa explains, ‗I donʹt generally buy into such descriptions; neither do I agree with the notion that this novel is the "bible" of the revolution. The revolution of the Syrian people is bigger than a thousand novels.‟ (Khalifa) Therefore, the novel can be called an autobiographical creation by the writer. He also himself calls the novel a kind of catharsis for the people in Syria who have undergone the same brutality. ‗Some young people who suffered imprisonment are unable to talk about it. By reading this novel, they are able to understand more about their own experience.‟ (Khalifa) The novel, ‗The shell: Memoirs of a Hidden Observer‘ has been called a ‗chilling description of torture.‟ Similarly, in a web-review, it is told, ‗Khalifa (who was sent to a Syrian jail for more than a decade in 1982) captures what a long-term imprisonment feels like, both the Email: [email protected] Page 4 Literary Horizon An International Peer-Reviewed English Journal Vol. 1, Issue 3 www.literaryhorizon.com August, 2021 overwhelming claustrophobia and the stray ray of light. Impressively fictionalizing his own harrowing experiences, Khalifa shines a much-needed light on a war outside the bounds of international law.‘ (Starky) A good deal of research work has not been done on the respective work yet. However, it is originally written in Arabic (Arabic: Al-Qawqaʿa: Yawmiyyāt Mutalaṣṣiṣ (and translated in French (La Coquille: Prisonnier politique en Syrie) by Stephanie Dujols. This study focuses on one of those chapters that have been translated into the English language. 3. Research Methodology This section of research proposal will deal with the explication and application of the theoretical framework and model of Roland Barthes, on the novel, The Shell: Memoirs of a Hidden Observer. 3.1 Theoretical Framework Collins English dictionary defines the term narratology as, ‗the study of narrative and narrative structure.‟ The deep examining of narrative in order to study the inner workings and functions of the literary text helps to decipher the narrative progression and influence. It helps to identify the narrative components that make the text influential. The theory will help in the study by the implication of its models which are discussed as follow: With reference to Barthesian reading of the narrative structure of the fiction by five codes defined by Felluga i.e. Hermeneutic Code (HER.), Proairetic Code (ACT.), Semantic Code (SEM.), Symbolic Code (SYM.), and Cultural Code (REF.), finding chronological and sequential order in the events of the story and paradigmatically, reversible descriptions. The five codes are briefly defined here. 1. The Hemeneutic Code (HER.) this code of Barthes refers to any element in the story that is not explained and not given sufficient account to the readers. Thus, such elements Email: [email protected] Page 5 Literary Horizon An International Peer-Reviewed English Journal Vol. 1, Issue 3 www.literaryhorizon.com August, 2021 remain enigma and need explication and interpretation to the end of the story unless its loose ends are tied. These elements are in Barthes‘s terms ‗snares‘ (Deliberate evasions of then truth), ‗equivocations‘ (mixtures of truth and snare), ‗partial answers‘, ‗suspended answers‘ and ‗jammings.‘ (Dino) 2. The Proairetic Code (ACT.) this code is termed as the second important principle of the textual narrative structure which creates interest and suspense on the part of the reader. The proairetic code implies to any action on the story that leads to another imminent action in the story. (Dino) 3. The Semantic Code (SEM.) being the third code confirms the connotational meaning of the text.

    REVOLUTIONARY NETWORKS? AN ANALYSIS OF ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN IN TERRORIST GROUPS by Bradley J. McAllister (Under the Direction of Sherry Lowrance) ABSTRACT This dissertation is simultaneously an exercise in theory testing and theory generation. Firstly, it is an empirical test of the means-oriented netwar theory, which asserts that distributed networks represent superior organizational designs for violent activists than do classic hierarchies. Secondly, this piece uses the ends-oriented theory of revolutionary terror to generate an alternative means-oriented theory of terrorist organization, which emphasizes the need of terrorist groups to centralize their operations. By focusing on the ends of terrorism, this study is able to generate a series of metrics of organizational performance against which the competing theories of organizational design can be measured. The findings show that terrorist groups that decentralize their operations continually lose ground, not only to government counter-terror and counter-insurgent campaigns, but also to rival organizations that are better able to take advantage of their respective operational environments. However, evidence also suggests that groups facing decline due to decentralization can offset their inability to perform complex tasks by emphasizing the material benefits of radical activism.

  • The Shell: Memoirs of a Hidden Observer (Al-Qawqa'a: Yawmiyat Mutalassis) by Mustafa Khalifa. Published in Arabic by Dar Al-Ad
    1 The Shell: Memoirs of a Hidden Observer (al-Qawqa’a: yawmiyat mutalassis) By Mustafa Khalifa. Published in Arabic by Dar al-Adab, Beirut, 2008 Published in French as La Coquille (trans. Stéphanie Dujols) by Actes Sud Editions, 2012 Contents of this document 1. Short summary 2. Synopsis and review 3. Two sample chapters translated into English Short summary I’ve had this novel in my head ever since I finished reading it, in tears. It’s the astonishing story of a Syrian political prisoner, an atheist mistaken for a radical Islamist, the worst kind of enemy of the state. He is then shunned by his fellow inmates and remains silent and unspoken to for over 12 years of incarceration. The novel takes the form of a diary which Musa keeps in his head and then writes down in later years. It’s narrated in a succinct and well-paced way, with each short chapter often recounting a stand-alone episode. In one of the most notorious prisons in the Middle East for human rights abuses, Tadmur, the mood is naturally bleak at times and yet often very beautifully captured. The narrator, a young graduate at the start, is defiant and stoical, and somehow able to pick out humour and irony in the shocking events and the characters he describes. Yet even the strongest personality cannot hold out under such brutal conditions forever… The novel is something of a symbol of the Syrian opposition in the current bloody civil war and is the focus of many Facebook groups and online discussions aimed at exposing acts of violence and brutality committed by the state.

  • The Impossible Partition of Syria
    Thematic Studies October 2013 The impossible partition of Syria Mustafa Khalifa * The idea of a partition of Syria along sectarian boundaries has been circulating among pro- government circles, reaching the ears of Western commentators, as a way to partially save the Syrian regime, restore peace and protect the Alawite minority from a feared Sunni victory. However the historical, economic, political and, above all, the demographic reality of Syria and those of the neighboring countries indicate that such a solution would lead to a disaster. The ethnic and sectarian composition of the Syrian society and the distribution of the population across the country make the partition of the country impossible. A partition would not only fail to restore peace but it will also be a danger for the stability of neighboring countries. Mustafa Khalifa demonstrates this through a mapping of the ethnic and sectarian composition of the different urban and rural areas of the country. This mapping is inevitably incomplete and based on estimations due to the unavailability of reliable statistics. It provides nevertheless an important contribution to the knowledge about Syria that policy circles need to have when discussing the future of the country. Syrian society is unique in its diversity, with many different ethnic, religious and sectarian constituent groups. In this respect it is equalled in the Arab world only by its neighbour Lebanon, which was created in similar conditions and with which it has an extensive shared history. After the beginning of the Syrian revolution in March 2011, with peaceful protests turning into an armed struggle between Bashar al-Assad’s regime and the different opposition groups, the issue of the composition of Syria’s population was revived locally, regionally and internationally.

ABSTRACT IN ITALIANO Dopo anni di atrocità, solo perseguibilità dei crimini e giustizia potranno ricucire la società siriana, aprendo la strada alla riconciliazione e alla pace. Lo scopo di questa tesi è cercare di capire come ciò sarà possibile, avvalendosi degli strumenti del diritto internazionale umanitario da un lato e del diritto internazionale penale dall’altro. La tesi può infatti essere divisa in due parti: la prima analizza le principali fattispecie criminose dei crimini internazionali commessi in Siria da tutte le parti in conflitto; la seconda esplora criticamente quali sono i possibili meccanismi di repressione di tali crimini. La tesi si articola in sei capitoli: il primo offre una panoramica sulla situazione siriana prima del 2011, sulle radici della rivolta e sulle fasi e gli attori del conflitto; il secondo cerca di
