Images of torment in Iraqi theater publications

Abstract

The theater is filled with images of torment, and the sentence of torment here is more general and comprehensive than any other expression such as pessimism, sadness and alarm, for example, the torment represents the biggest concern in the Zaidi theater in general, and in the play of martyrs first enter paradise in particular. The idea of the torment inflicted by everyone, the martyr and his mother, without a clear explanation, leads to the idea of general punishment, which seems to some extent acceptable to the mind, especially the feeling of sin, which made both Shahid 1 and Shahid 2 admit that he does not deserve to be a martyr, especially after they were thrown into destructive wars that are useless except for masters with higher interests, Religion has nothing to do with it except an illusion used by politicians to incite war to reap their own fruits. Both martyrs appear to be in a state of permanent crucifixion, criticizing a vague hope to come. Here, Al-Zaidi gets very close to Beckett's theater in the game of thinking about the sin committed, which is the use of the war machine to kill without justification or real purpose. To turn the play into the point of view of its author towards war and the destruction, devastation and illusions it produces, to turn the same point of view into one of the most important forms of torment in the theater of Ali Abdul Nabi Al-Zaidi.
