"Monseira" is a play that exposes the brutality of the Western invaders

Emmanuel Robles is a French poet who believed in man against Western racism.

Heinous racist crimes committed by whites

Racism is not hidden in the Western view of other peoples, in order to establish the false theory of the superiority of the white man, which has left many tragedies that emerged after the invasion campaigns led by Western countries against other peoples, which is what many Western writers and creators themselves are trying to strip, including the French Emmanuel Robles.

There are many literary works that reveal the black or dark face, at least, of Western civilization in its dealings with the other, highlighting the vast gap between claim and practice. 1914 and died in France in 2008.

In his play referred to, Emmanuel Robles presents the scale of the brutality and abuse practiced by the "Contisador" conquistadors against the indigenous people of South America. The priest in the play justifies the shedding of innocent blood using biblical texts, so he calls on the poor actor to accept his death calm and reassuring. The actor answers him, “But I am innocent,” and the priest replies to him, “And who is the innocent?”

Western racism

The most deadly form of terrorism is religious terrorism before ethnic, although ethnic terrorism is also no less than the first obsession and madness. The wonderful Algerian writer Mohamed Dib, in his brilliant novel “The Fire,” cites a disgusting expression uttered by a French centenarian, warning his young son, “Sleep, or I will bring you the Arab.” The priest does not waver if he kills millions of non-Christians. What pity for these beings, who insist on setting up their idols and worshiping them in secret, those fanatics who refuse to frankly acknowledge the greatness and glory of God.” blunt.”

I have come across a recording of Pope Shenouda from a series of recordings. I think its name, if I don’t remember, “Years with People’s Questions,” in which he responds to someone’s question about the interpretation of “Whoever slaps you on the right cheek, turn your left cheek to him” by saying, “This pertains to Christians regarding only between them.” This medieval answer is not matched in its barbarism except by the approach of the ISIS in their understanding of the texts and their dealing with the different.

The danger of Shenouda's racist sentence and the dangerously insane approach of ISIS is represented in the destruction that emerges from such a way of thinking. After all this dementia, which can only come from an exclusionary and hysterical psyche, the priest says in the play, "Christ was all love." Would it not have been more useful for the priest to exhort himself before others, but how could he do that, for what he and Eschiardo, the cutthroat officer, are but as Shawky said, “But we are all in the east.”

So Eschiardo and the priest are two sides of one racist human group. "What were you saying, Morales?" Eschiardo shouts. I browse! Do you seem to me the foolishness of a man who can sympathize and forgive? Start".

Eschiardo is the perfect embodiment of the arrogance and hatred of a kind of wicked Westerner, whose bodies are inhabited by black spirits filled with hatred and anger. "I do not think Esciardo is the man who forgets a failure even after twenty years," Monserra declares in the play.

 This brings to mind the image of Captain Ahab in the novel "Mopedic", which talks about the frightening spirit of vengeance suffered by the white American man: "Let not me Ahab, but call me the avenger."

In a phone call that took place between George Bush Jr. and Jacques Chirac, which was hacked and broadcast by Al-Jazeera, if I remember, Bush says to Chirac, "Come and join the Army of the Holy Cross. This Saddam Hussein is the grandson of Nebuchadnezzar."

Eschiardo has failed in love, being rejected by a young countess in Spain before he comes to Venezuela. From here, I can say: The failure in love generates sharpness and ferocity in nature.

Unheard voices

Eschiardo and the priest in the play are two faces of a single racist human group that reveals an exclusionary and exclusionary psychology

Emmanuel Robles is not one of the writers who referred to the brutality of the white man, as I mentioned in the course of my article. There is also John Steinbeck in his novel “The Pearl” and how white men chased that red Indian with the aim of robbing him of his precious pearl, and they were the cause of the death of his infant son, until In an hour of despair and despondency, the Indian casts the pearl into the river.

It also refers us to Foster's "Journey to India" and Arthur Miller's "View from the Bridge", which speak of the rampant hostility between an important segment and a large segment of Americans to the less civilized nations, "We are all human beings, so why are we arrogant toward each other?" And it reveals the falsehood of the slogans that the Americans chant, and claim that they are defending it, so here is Eddie Carbon telling Catherine, “You have the beauty and purity of the Virgin, Kitty, so you should not show off, this does not suit you, you are the closest you are to the Virgin,” while he He wanted her for himself, and even tried to rape her, had it not been for Rodolfo's intervention.

In sum, Monsera, the hero of Robles, is one of the Western voices that believe in man, and have no influence in Western decision-making towards backward and weak countries. “.

The cries of truth from great men such as Chomsky, Jose Saramago and Tzivitan Todorov, the French-born Bulgarian philosopher and grammarian, whom Boniface called the most respected thinker, Todorov, who speaks of the end of Western democracy, are like the words of the mourning mother in the play “The Mourning Marriage” of the writer Irish John Singh said, “What good is the wonderful tales I know, if I find no one to listen to an old man like me, except for a girl who is afraid that her death will come, or a small child who does not sleep, because he is hungry on a cold night.”
