Interfigural And Intertextual Relationships Between Tayebsalih’s Season Of Migration Tothe North And William Shakespeare’s Othello
Authors : Azzoug Fatima .
Abstract
Tayeb Salih‟s character, Mustafa Sa‟eed refers to Shakespeare‟s Othello saying „I am Othello‟. „Like Othello‟, „I am not Othello‟. This declaration to look like and differ from Othello creates a literary interfigural and intertextual link between Mustafa Sa‟eed and Othello. This link indeed goes further to include Hasna, Mustafa Sa‟eed‟s widow and Desdemona, Othello‟ white wife. Thus, this article will highlight the interfigural and intertextual relationship between TayebSalih‟s and William Shakespeare‟s characters to defend the idea that such a literary relationship implies the persistence in the twentieth century of the institution of Otherness that oppresses the Black, the African and the woman who find ease only in death.
