Abstract
The goal of this research, which is titled "narrative awareness of contemporary Iraqi reality, reading in the novels of Mohsen Al-Ramli," is to provide light on a variety of issues pertaining to society and all of its cultural backgrounds. These issues, which are conveyed through the narrative body, helped shape the novel work and define its dimensions. The study's format comprised an introduction, a preface, four sections, and a list of approved sources and references. The introduction covered the key considerations that led to the selection of these novel works, while the preface presented "the concept of narrative consciousness." The first section was titled "narrative awareness of psychological reality towards the other," followed by "narrative awareness towards customs and traditions," "narrative awareness towards open and closed identity," and "narrative awareness towards religious discourse." The research was based on a descriptive-analytical approach based on the procedures of cultural criticism in order to identify the cultural systems that play the game of invisibility and manifestation within the central discourses. Keywords: Consciousness, identity, narrative, habits, duality, reality, traditions.
