Title

The Shift from Masculine to Feminine Identity in La Nuit Sacré e Novel by Tahar Ben Jelloun

Pages

  33-36

Abstract

 1. Introduction The main theme of La Nuit Sacré e is the life of a Moroccan women under the influence of patriarchy that is dominant over the Moroccan society. In this story, Ben Jelloun portrays the turbulent, frustrating life of a girl named Zahra whose femininity is not even acknowledged by her father. Having imposed his Masculine Identity on her, the father deprives the girl of her femininity. After twenty years spending a hellish life, the girl’ s father finally confesses to his sins at his deathbed, recognizing the femininity of the girl who had been covered with men’ s clothing until that very moment. Accordingly, the main subject of La Nuit Sacré e and the present study deals with exiting the limbo of being a man or a woman and stepping into a paradise-limbo atmosphere of femininity. Having been called Ahmed to that day, Zahra was raised as a man; she had never been seen as a women not only in the society, but also among her family members and even her mother. Her only taste of femininity was her feminine body that was hidden underneath men’ s clothing; and her emotions were considerably suppressed. She had to test and learn being a women, and her femininity was formed through such trials. Following her father’ s funeral, Zahra/Ahmed leaves her family home while she possessed nothing with respect to her Feminine Identity except for a few pieces of clothes and a name. She then attempts to nurture her femininity by living amid the society as a woman and recover her lost identity. Accordingly, La Nuit Sacré e is the story of Zahra’ s attempts to find and recover her lost gender; the present study is an examination of the heroine’ s metamorphosis process from masculinity to femininity. . . .
