Abstract

Writing history is not a monopoly to the historian ، History is a source of Inspiration for many writers provided that, it maintains credibility of the historical material and is careful to convey it .In this research, we have based on important point of how to merge the history narrative with Biography. The importance of this research comes as it highlights on some several issues: First, the difference between the novelist and chronicler of history narrative, the two writers used history in their literary work and what distinguishes them from the historian, which conveys history in all its precise details in a neutral and objective manner is a mixture of personal feelings and narration of contemporary historical events. The second issue the motivations of writing a novel sourced from history. This issue deals with the project of history narrative and the goals that make both writers (Annie Arnaud and Anaam kaghi) discuss in order to complete the project, overcoming all obstacles and difficulties encountered while writing. Each writer had her own style in gathering historical information, which leads to produce a literary work worthy of reading to be a narrative project full of historical events affecting of both. The last issue focuses on the role of collective biography in the transfer of historical events and social problems in a certain period of time. The biography is not lacking in the novels of "Tasharri" and "the years" of collective autobiography through which the two writers discusse some of the problems of the Iraqi and French society at that time.
