Abstract

The place in the novel performs an important function that the narrator depicts for him as if he were a human being with a soul and life. The place in the novel is not just a decoration or just a place for fictional events to occur - as he thinks - but rather it is a fictional element like other elements that intertwine with each other to form the novelistic narrative.  Sana Abu Sharar wrote the novel “Le anni ashtagho elayke” to celebrate the Jordanian homeland. The novel is spatial, but despite its dominance in the narrative analysis of place, it is no substitute for psychological analysis. This research aims, using the descriptive-analytical approach, to study the mutual relationship between character and place in this novel, the role of place in people’s emotions, and the psychological analysis of the fictional place in light of important components such as place identity and sense of place, as they are two important components in the analysis. The results indicate that there is a relationship between the characters and the place in the novel, and the place is colored by a psychological state that has a significance beyond its usual role, is free from description, and is linked to a range of psychological issues such as place identity and spatial attachment. If we look at the places that constitute the framework of events in the novel, we find that the duality (closed/open) is fundamental. Factors such as the continuation of the individual’s relationship with the place, knowledge and awareness of the place, and memories of the place and their repercussions influenced the creation and strengthening of spatial integration and, at a higher level, the creation of attachment to the place
