Abstract
The symbolic representations in the fictional work of Malek Haddad.
Maghrebi literature was born in a very precise period in the history of Algeria, that of a
country colonized by France. It is this same socio-historical context that animated the writing
of the committed author Malek Haddad, a passionate author of his country. His commitment
was not only political, but also literary, since history is present in all its forms. To stand out
from the French-language authors, he adopts a very particular style since he chooses to
introduce in his texts, words and expressions of the Algerian dialect. Every word he writes is
a meaningful symbol that can be explicit or implicit and that the reader must interpret while
reading. However, each of his novels tell a different story, but basically, they all converge to
the same point, that of denouncing the atrocity of war in all its forms. In order to avoid
censorship, he uses different symbolic representations to express himself. The author does not
hesitate to use the different linguistic means that allow him to awaken the spirit of the
Algerian population.
