It also incorporates Craps and Beulness' ethical direction of trauma to understand how war can shape and influence the antihero's transformation, and to position the existential Arab antihero in Hage's novel in the field of Anglophone Arab war fiction. This research is theoretically framed using The Archetypal Antihero in Postmodern Fiction (2010) by Rita Gurung to scrutinize the character's evolution and transformation into an antihero, and trauma studies including Cathy Caruth's readings of traumatized literary figures and her findings of trauma in her Trauma: Explorations in Memory (1995).

It also dwells on the representation of the antihero's psyche reflecting the complex nature of the antihero figure in times of conflicts. The representation of the antihero in postmodern Anglophone Arab war fiction is of paramount importance as it reclaims the past through depicting historical events. The crafting of postmodern antiheroism in the context of war has become a medium to voice out the traumatic experiences of this individual around whom events of death, loss, destruction, and chaos are centered. Abstract : This article aims at investigating the transformation of the contemporary Arab protagonist into an existential antihero in Rawi Hage's Beirut Hell Fire Society (2018) which is set during Lebanon's civil war.
