Authors: Zohreh Taebi Noghondari ,Abstract
The clash of two different nations with major cultural backgrounds and differences is a start of a storm of violence to a disintegrated society. This study is investigating the issue of being a victimized inferior, oppressed and resistant victimizer of the main character of Tayeb Salih’s Season of Migration to the North. Numerous writers and critics have written about Season of Migration to the North such as Christopher S. Nassaar, Danielle Tran, Patricia Geesey, Yosif Tarawneh and Joseph John. Previous studies have primarily concentrated on colonial and post-colonial discourse found in the novel. To date however, no one exactly, explained the victim and the victimizer and concepts of violence in the Novel. The gap that this study fills; is to present an exhaustive review of these studies and suggest a direction for future developments by explaining the colonial elements that affected the protagonist of the story to organize sexual attacks against the British women, depending on Edward Said’s theory of Orientalism to prove that Mustafa Said is a victim of the British Colonial system and Homi Bhabha’s Resistance to prove that Mustafa Said was a victimizer made by the British colonial system. Furthermore, this paper on the one hand, connects all the information about the novel to decide the reasons that stands behind the unprecedented violence that overtaken the major characters of the story, on the other hand, it seeks to find out whether Mustafa was a victim in the story or a victimizer as well as expressing the novelist’s point of view whether he accepts or does not accept what Mustafa has done, in terms of speech and context.
