Abstract

Chaos is one of the dual confrontations of meaning production, which today defines the correct understanding of the causes of narration. Lotman believes that chaos is in opposition to order and induces a destructive and negative approach to the text, in fact, this type of destruction is a kind of deconstruction in the content of the text that creates new content. Baha Taher is an exiled writer who tries to portray his inner chaos by reflecting in the mental states of the characters in the story and shows that inner and eternal chaos prevails in the eyes of the narrator. The current research was conducted with the aim of comparative reading of the novel "Love in Exile" and the collection of stories "Winter of Fear" written by Baha Taher based on Yuri Lutman's model of Cosmos and Chaos with a descriptive-analytical approach in the scope of Arab migration literature and culture. The result of the research indicates that the author has explained his inner feelings in dealing with the new atmosphere and culture based on chaos and chaos in the fictional characters of the studied works, as the eternal chaos and the movement of the butterfly wing caused the events to be non-linear and the events based on uncertainty. . Any complex phenomenon such as fear and disorder is affected by other events such as: eternal chaos, self-similarity, dynamic adaptation field, chaos before order and chaos after order, which created disturbances and transformations in fictional characters and caused reactions in these characters. Is. The final achievement of such riots is to arouse the audience's sense of content and effect. What is clear is that eternal chaos and self-identity are very similar in these two novels, which are fear and wandering.
