The search for Sanctity and Divine Love « The Narrow Door » Andre Gide: À la recherche de la sainteté et de l’amour céleste dans « La porte étroite » d’André Gide.
...Show More Authors

The theme of love has been and still is the interest of authors and writers for it is closely related to people’s lives. That great passion has helped them express genuine thoughts pertinent to that theme that has given rise to many debates, some are vague and others controversial. In his (strait is the gate), (La Porte étroite), André Gide has sought to shed light on his characters perspective of love and its relationship with sacredness and divine happiness. Indeed these characters have found often themselves restrained, chained and exhausted, by tough religious commands that have imposed on them spiritual commitments and duties too hard to break.

André Gide has revealed a protestant deviation from the perfection theme that has caused a misunderstanding and misinterpretation of the Bible concepts.

       The writer has presented this perfection and this ideality through a free hypothesis to make up for the failure that some of the characters have undergone due to this personal misinterpretation.

      All these characters have been united by one goal and one desire to realize love and happiness. However, because of adopting a personal vision in analysis, they were caused to live under a clear illusion. Elissa has always thought that her behavior is ideal. In this way she has destroyed her youth, terminated her existence and disappointed Jerome’s hope who has kept faithful to her love.

     This novel has ended with a family tragedy in the name of sacredness and divine love.

This research is divided into different sub themes; among which are :

1-Two paradoxical ways .

2-Towards holiness and reunification with God .

3-Isolation and Frustration .

This research adopts the objective analysis methodology, through analysis unit ( unity of subject).

Résumé.

Depuis longtemps, le thème de l’amour était et sera lié étroitement avec la vie de l’homme. Au niveau de la littérature, ce thème permet aux hommes de lettres d’exprimer les idées et les pensées les plus originales. Il ne faut pas nier que cette passion suscite d’innombrables définitions et interprétations tantôt ambiguës, et tantôt controversées.

      Dans « La porte étroite », Gide s’efforce de mettre en lumière les points de vue de ses personnages envers l’amour et son rapport avec la sainteté et le bonheur divin. Puisque ces protagonistes sont accablés par une éducation religieuse répressive qui leur impose une obligation et un devoir spirituel dont il faut s’engager.

     Dans ce récit, Gide révèle une déviation protestante de la perfection chrétienne. Il présente ce parfait et cet idéalisme comme une hypothèse gratuite pour remplacer quelques insuccès dans la vie de ses personnages qui ont mal compris et mal interprété les paroles bibliques. Ces personnages ont le même but et le même désir, c’est de réaliser l’amour et le bonheur. Mais chacun d’eux adopte une vision subjective, raison pour laquelle ils vivent dans une cécité complète. Après avoir mesuré l’utilité de sa recherche de la sainteté et de l’amour divin, Alissa est parfaitement convaincue que sa conduite était idéale. Elle détruit sa jeunesse et son existence par un acte gratuit, tandis que Jérôme reste fidèle à son amour.

    Les deux amants sont victimes d’un drame familial où ce récit finit par un suicide volontaire au nom de la sainteté et de l’amour céleste.

Cette recherche est divisée en trois titres principaux :

1-Deux chemins contradictoires .

2-Vers la sainteté et la communion en Dieu .

3-Solitude et désespoir .

Dans ce travail, nous avons recours à la méthode thématique et analytique .

Synthesis and Charactrization of New Schiff Base Derived from PVA and Erythroascorbic Acid Derivative and Study Its Effect on the Activity of ACh Enzyme (In Vitro)
...Show More Authors

Schiff base derived from PVA and Erythroascorbic acid derivative (pentulosono-ɣ-lactone-2, 3-enedianisoate) was synthesized and characterized by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) and FTIR spectra, aldehyde was also characterized by (U.V-Vis), 1HNMR, 13CNMR and mass spectra. The inhibitory effect of prepared polymer on the activity of human serum Cholinesrerase has been studied in vitro. The polymer showed a remarkable activity at low concentration (4.5*10-3 – 4.5*10-8 M).

SiCi_xNxthin films preparation by TEA-Co2 Laser induced Vapor-phase reaction and study of the nature of chemical bonds and some their electrical and optical properties
...Show More Authors

A pulsed (TEA-0O2) laser was used to dissociate molecules of silane ethylene (C2I-14) and ammonia (NH3) gases, through collision assisted multiple photon dissociation (MPD) to deposit(SiC i_xNx) thin films, where the X-values are 0, 0.13 and 0.33, on glass substrate at T,----648 K. deposition rate of (0.416-0.833) nm/pulse and thickness of (500-1000)nm .Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR) was used to study the nature of the chemical bonds that exist in the films. Results revealed that these films contain complex networks of the atomic (Si, C, and N), other a quantity of atomic hydrogen and chemical bonds such as (Si-N, C-N, C-14 and N-H).Absorbance and Transmittance spectra in the wavelength range (400-1100) nm were used to stud

Empirically Measuring the Impact of Corporate Social Responsibility on Earnings Management in Listed Banks of the Iraqi Stock Exchange: The Mediating Role of Corporate Governance
...Show More Authors

The current study is based on previous findings, where corporate governance (CG) significantly increased corporate social responsibility (CSR) to enhance transparency while reducing the tendency of corporate management to engage in earnings management (EM). A sample of 11 Iraqi banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange from 2010 to 2020 was selected. The CG was included in the board size and board independence apart from the variables of Chief Executive Officer (CEOs) gender, majority shareholder ownership, foreign ownership, and institutional ownership. The CSR included the wage growth rate, bank contribution growth rate for social security, training programmes, subsidies, environmental protection, and bank compliance with the law. Specifica

Effect of The CO2 Laser as Surface Treatment on The Bond Strength of Heat Cured Soft Liner to The High Impact Acrylic Denture Base Material
...Show More Authors

ABSRTACT Background: Soft liner material is become important in dental prosthetic treatment. They are applied to the surface of the dentures to achieve more equal force distribution , reduce localized pressure and improve denture retention by engaging undercut . So the aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of different surface treatment by air-abrasion AL2O3 and laser treatment with CO2 laser on improving the shear bond strength of the denture liner to acrylic denture base material . Materials and methods: the 30 specimens of heat cured acrylic denture base material (high Impact acrylic )and heat cured soft liner (Vertex ,Nether Lands )were prepared for this study .They were designed and divided according to type of the s

Teaching techniques due to the Brain-based learning theory among math teachers
...Show More Authors

The purpose of the study is to identify the teaching techniques that mathematics' teachers use due to the Brain-based learning theory. The sample is composed of (90) teacher: (50) male, (40) female. The results have shown no significant differences between male and female responses' mean. Additionally, through the observation of author, he found a lack of using Brain-based learning techniques. Thus, the researcher recommend that it is necessary to involve teachers in remedial courses to enhance their ability to create a classroom that raise up brain-based learning skills.

Investigating the Sensitivity Effect of Actuarial Assumptions on Pension Liabilities in Malaysia
...Show More Authors

Malaysia will be an ageing population by 2030 as the number of those aged 60 years and above has increased drastically from 6.2 percent in 2000 and is expected to reach 13.6 percent by 2030. There are many challenges that will be faced due to the ageing population, one of which is the increasing cost of pensions in the future. In view of that, it is necessary to investigate the effect of actuarial assumptions on pension liabilities under the perspective of ageing. To estimate the pension liabilities, the Projected Unit Credit method is used in the study and commutation functions are employed in the process. Demographic risk and salary risk have been identified as major risks in analyzing pension liabilities in this study. The sensitivity
