    Commitment and Exile in some Algerian and Irish Selected Poems
    (Mouloud Mammeri University, 2019) Mohamed Mariche Zohra; Fentazi Hakima
    Our comparative study focuses o examining Irish and Algerian poetry, both emerging from histories of colonialism, political conflict and lost homelands under the respective works of William BulerYeat's "Easter 1916" and Muhand U Yehya's "Nunember" in terms of political commitment, then moving to AssiaDjebar's "L'exilé" and Eavan Boland's "The Lost Land"in terms of exile. The main issue centers on the way poets from these diffrent nations channel their political struggles and yearning for homelands into their work. To achieve this goal we applied Julia Krestiva's theory Intertextuality, and Jean Paul Sartre' concept Politics and the engaged Intellectuals. Our study is divided into two chapters. In the first chapter we have discussed commitment in both works of William Butler Yeat's and Muhand U Yehya, in the second chapter we have dealt with exile and the effects it left on people who have experienced it through the works of AssiaDjebar and Eavan Boland. The present comparative study depict the universal struggle of the oppressed people demonstrating how political commitment and exile are present in the works of Irish and Algerianpoets.
