The first section investigates the case of the returnees from the war and their experience, their trauma and final presentation of that experience. The article also investigates how trauma and fear is depicted to create an optimized image and state of fear that could in turn show Iraqi society as a traumatized society. Critics such as Suzie Grogan believes that the concept of trauma could expand to influence societies rather than one individual after exposure to trauma of being involved in wars and different major conflicts. This is reflected in Iraq as a country that was subjected to six comprehensive conflicts in its recent history, i.e. less than half a century; these are the Iraq-Iran war, the first Gulf war, the economic sanctions, the second Gulf war 2003, the civil war, and the wars of liberation against ISIS. The second section investigates Franco Moretti's theory of the Dialectic of Fear and the ...

The paper aims to uncover his view of war and his historical traumatic testimony on the events in which he was involved and hence recorded in his poetry collection. War poetry of the 20 th century as defined by Elie Wiesel is a specialized poetry that is described as a literature of memory, a poetry that stimulates people to speak "for others and to others" about their stories a memory Wilfred Own called "The Truth Untold" (Mahmoud: 2016). The poems of the collection reveals a postcolonial perspective which the researcher investigates where the poems portrays a bridge that helps transfer culture, principles, language, manners, history and tradition applying Homi K. Bhabha's coined literary theory of Hybridity. Turner as viewed by Jason Shaffer in his paper An Education in Arms: Brian Turner's Here, Bullet" is a learner from that war, a war that teaches hard lessons of combat duty as he points out (Shaffer: 33), a war, therefore, shaped his memoir of human reaction and culture connection to that place where he had this experience "there are gaps in memory that creates issues and problems, and that is part of what I was studying when I was putting these pieces together" (Hicks: 2015), Turner adds in his epigraph to his first poem quoting Ernest Hemingway that "this is a strange kind of war where yiu learn just as much as you are able to believe"(Turner: 2005).

The peak spectrum of plasmon resonance (SPR) at 415 nm confirmed the formation of silver nanoparticles. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) test obtained a characteristic functional group vibration spectrum in Lamtoro Pods. A shift of wavenumber was distinguished by comparing the FTIR spectrum between Lamtoro pods extract and silver nanoparticles. This indicated the involvement of phenol and flavonoid compounds found in the Lamtoro act as a reducing agent of Ag + to Ag 0 (silver nanoparticles). The X-ray diffractometer (XRD) pattern showed that the material synthesized as silver nanoparticles. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) characterization showed that the nanoparticles have an average size 15.70 nm. The color intensity of silver nanoparticles decreased to be colorless after being contacted with mercury ion, indicating its potential for mercury metal ions detection.

As far as pragmatics is concerned, it means an important means of communication within a context, and it is a culture dependent. As for silence in literature, it offers the example in which silence is not only present and comprehended but also a substantial part of communication that encapsulate a sender and a receiver. In novels, it is considered as a new humanistic tactic through which a writer would force the reader to feel words rather than reading them plus more intensity and strength. Novelists tend to use silence in writing their novels as it is an integral part of voices and a revelation of so many hidden things, but it mistakenly might be understood as a refusal for communication. Finally, the notion of 'silence' in poetry offers the readers many examples where the poet invites the readers to hear "silence." In some cases, it is even personified and is given a physical being.
