Read More Language is present in all areas of human societies and has long been the organizer of human relations at all levels of human life and the basis for the formation of relationships, reflecting the beliefs, views and experiences of human beings. Critical discourse analysis, which developed in the context of sociological ideas, has a social approach to language. The present article, based on Van Dijk's socio-cognitive Analysis Discourse method, deals with the discourse of exploring the poem"Al-arz,va Al-Jorh Allazi la yonfatah " by Amal Danqol, a poet committed to the Arab society.This research uses ideological square elements, a satisfied discourse ode. Considers social and considers it as a social structure and seeks to discover social inequality and the negative points of the dominant discourse and how to redefine the meanings and the content of the audience and explain the poet's ideology.considers the text of the poem as a socio-political discourse and considers it as a social structure that creates its own discourse through the superstructure elements of language and attention to the context of the dominant discourse in society. Redefining the meanings and contentment of the audience and explaining the ideology. He considers the literary work as a kind of action that is socially formed and instead of considering it as a kind of ideal and aesthetic harmony, he considers it as an example of a variable literary institution which is marked by words, indexing, syntactic constructions, rhetorical applications including metaphor and metaphor, engages in polarization and breaks the hegemony of the dominant discourse, thereby reflecting the unequal distribution of power in current society. As a result, it became clear that in this poem, the poet relies more on alienation to show the face of Israel and other colonialists and internal enemies (the Arab ruler) to the people of his society and to institutionalize the ideology of struggle in the minds of the audience. he tries to focus the audience on the reality and the world that exists, not the world that the poet wants to create

Read More Carnival, the dynamic center of joyful spirit of debate and libertarianism of people, always shows power in the face of the absolute thoughts, with its solubilization and making solutions. Literary representation of carnival tradition and the anti-ban spirit of folk festivals, later in the Caniavalesque literature in the form of several techniques such as parody, relativity and binary opposition, crowning/uncrowning, lower urban language, the Themes of Death and mask, and banquet imagery were manifested, each of which was an artistic carnivalized response to the spirit of one-sidedness and self-sufficiency of the authoritarian party. Bakhtin's narratology project in the analysis of Novel-tendent prose considers carniavalesque as the keyword of modern novel developments by emphasizing the exploratory method of this idea in beliefs constructed carnival. The importance of paying attention to carnivalesque literature from the perspective of Bakhtin's critical approach lies in its ability to study and re-read the strategies of these works in objectifying the Liberal tendency of anti-dogmatic modern narrative discourse. Relying on the method of descriptive-analytical research, by observing the examples of carnivalesque of the novel "The-Game-of-Forgetting" in the form of the above components, we try to measure the success of the Moroccan "Mohamed Berrada" in dialogizing his work and promoting the spirit of polyphonic democracy in Arabic novel writing. The study of the novel from the perspective of carnivalesque literature indicated That: Berrada, with methods appropriate to each of the components such as: desecration, degenerating the transcendent enumerated concepts, inversion and replacement of oppositions, refutation of perfectionism and pre-recognized bases of rulers; It overturns hierarchical norms and seemingly inviolable rank-oriented relations, and by emphasizing multipolarism, will centralize rejected discourses once again. It'll leads the audience to the status of subjectivity and knowing the state of polyphonic nature of the universe, in the shadow of democracy, and has ultimately made his novel a successful example of global carnivalesque literature with a local twist.

Read More Criticism of literary works based on archetypal criticism is one of the types of psychological criticism based on the theories of Carl Gustav Jung. He considers the products of the collective unconscious to be examples of archetypes, which appear in cases such as self, shadow, anima, animus, etc. Finds; The manifestation of the mental and psychological aspects of the characters of the play and the place of the inner unconscious in the play of Al-Harr al-Riyahi caused this article with the aim of analyzing the archetypes in this work based on Jung's theories and using the descriptive-analytical method with a new approach to this Ashurai work. to study The archetype of the self, the shadow, the feminine element (anima) and the use of different colors are among the archetypes in this play. Analyzing the play of Al-Harr al-Riyahi based on Jung's theory is one of the ways to penetrate and deeply understand the content of the play, and the knowledge of the unconscious of the characters of the play leads to the recognition of the hidden secrets and deep concepts of this type of works. Among the archetypes used in this play, we can mention the self and the shadow, and the contrast between two mental states in this play represents the contrast between these two archetypes. Har Riahi is a symbol of self-awareness and awakening (self), and Shammar bin Dhi al-Jawshan is a symbol of neglect and submission (shadow) to the self, that is, the opposition of good and evil, which has been the focus of many religions throughout the world. In this play, the archetype of color is also reflected in the characters of the play. The use of black color has been used to express certain concepts such as turbidity and hostility, which the archetype of the shadow is frequently involved with, and the color white evokes the concept of purity and innocence, which is observed in the expression of states related to the archetype of the self, and finally the color Red is an indescribable expression of eternal life and immortality, which finds its meaning in the pure blood of Imam Hussain (peace be upon him).
