The writing of novels and stories in a way stems from a history whose unpleasantness and harms people try to reject, transforming it into a more desirable form within stories to find solace. This way, a narrative emerges containing elements of historical and supra-historical/idealistic discourse. Such a study in the field of textual analysis of stories is conducted through the approach of New Historicism. New Historicists meticulously and critically explore literary texts to extract valuable historical data.
New Historicism is one of the latest literary criticism approaches that emerged under the influence of Michel Foucault's theories, generally addressing the relationship between literature and society. Naguib Mahfouz's works, due to their precision and keen insight in narrating events, are worthy of discussion and examination through the lens of New Historicism, as the oppression and disillusionment in Egyptian society during his era are significantly noteworthy. In this article, the author has attempted, using a descriptive-analytical method and the New Historicism approach, to examine the relationship of the novel "Kifah Tiba" with the events and discourses of the author's time. In other words, this research aims to investigate the conditions under which the text is formed and how it creates discourse either to reinforce the dominant discourse or to oppose and protest it. The results indicate that the novel "Kifah Tiba" is one of the successful and famous novels by this author, symbolically and metaphorically addressing the social crisis of his society. The title, characters, and setting of the story serve to advance the main idea of the story, which is anti-colonialism and nationalism
