Abstract

This study analyzes social criticism in Yusuf Idris's short story Hikayah Mishriyyah Jiddan using a sociology of literature perspective. The focus of the research is to identify social criticism and its connection to the social reality of Egypt. The method used is descriptive qualitative, employing Karl Marx's theory of social criticism, which encompasses issues of economics, politics, culture, and morality. The findings reveal criticism of economic inequality, systemic corruption, cultural shifts eroding empathy, and moral degradation. This criticism is conveyed through the interaction between the taxi driver and the beggar, representing the social dynamics of Egyptian society. The short story not only presents a fictional narrative but also reflects social issues relevant to its time. This study affirms that literary works play a significant role as a medium of social criticism to raise public awareness.

Abstract

Social criticism in literary works functions as a medium for authors to highlight various societal issues, particularly deviations within social reality. The short story Anā Sulṭānu Qānūni al-Wujūdi by Yusuf Idris exemplifies this by presenting social criticism through animal symbolism. This study employs a descriptive-analytical approach consisting of three stages: data collection, data analysis, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal four forms of social criticism based on Soerjono Soekanto’s classification, namely criticism of youth (apathy and resistance), poverty, bureaucracy, and crime. These forms of criticism are expressed through the figure of a lion in the circus arena, interpreted as a symbol of various social issues within society.
