Abstract

   In a global context where suffering is often reduced to fleeting headlines and the voice of the oppressed is increasingly marginalized, Gaza Theory: Writing from Beneath the Rubble emerges as a contemporary literary and critical framework for reading texts produced under siege, occupation, and destruction. While rooted in the Palestinian experience, the theory transcends geography, proposing a universal lens through which literature written from within human catastrophe can be interpreted. Gaza, in this theory, is not merely a location—it is a symbolic and existential condition. The theory introduces key concepts such as "emergency language," "the besieged self," and "explosive realism," redefining aesthetics not as ornamentation, but as the act of persisting in language amid collapse. It affirms that resistance literature is not propaganda but a profound human and artistic expression of survival, identity, and dignity. The theory also deliberately avoids rigid methodologies, leaving space for interpretive multiplicity and encouraging readers and scholars to engage literature from within lived experience and ethical responsibility.

Abstract

Figurative language is not merely an aesthetic ornament, but a means of expressing psychological meaning in literary works. This study aims to examine the form and function of figurative language in Anastasia Aemilia's novel Katarsis through a stylistic approach. By connecting linguistic and aesthetic aspects, this study focuses on understanding the relationship between language, context, and emotional effects on readers. Using a qualitative descriptive method with the Simak and Catat techniques, as well as data in the form of quotations containing elements of metaphor, personification, simile, synesthesia, anatomicia, and metonymy, the data was analyzed based on the stylistic theories of Henry Guntur Tarigan and Gorys Keraf. Data in the form of quotations from the novel containing figurative language elements, such as metaphors, personification, similes, synesthesia, anatomicia, and metonymy, were analyzed based on the stylistic theories of Henry Guntur Tarigan and Gorys Keraf. This study used a qualitative descriptive method with observation and note-taking techniques. The results show that the use of figurative language in the novel Katarsis is very dominant and plays an important role in shaping the characters, building the atmosphere, and describing the inner conflicts and past traumas of the main characters. Metaphors and similes are the most frequently used figures of speech to express extreme emotions, inner turmoil, and tension in the storyline, both explicitly and implicitly. These findings confirm that figurative language in this novel is a medium for conveying complex psychological messages to readers, while also contributing to the development of modern literary stylistics studies in understanding the aesthetic and expressive functions of narrative prose.

Abstract

Using multimodality in teaching second language writing allows English teachers to creatively combine two or modes in describing what goes on at each stage of the writing process. Studies confirmed that multimodality in teaching English as a foreign language could help to activate classroom atmosphere and inspiring students’ motivation. However, studies focusing on multimodality in teaching writing are still limited. Thus, this study aims at exploring the modes employed by the teacher in teaching writing and investigating how the teacher combined those methods in describing each stage of the writing process. By using narrative inquiry, the researchers obtained the data mainly by using the semi-structured interview. The participant of this study was an English teacher in a high school. The findings stated that a teacher employed modes like visual display, classroom layout, voice quality, gesture, and body movement in teaching writing. The teacher then combined those modes in describing stages of the writing process by designing some activities involving students’ active participation and group work. This study has implications for teachers and researchers interested in exploring multimodality in teaching English particularly in writing and generally in other skills, listening, speaking, and reading.

Abstract

This study examines the role of affixes (al-lawāṣiq) in augmented triliteral verbs following the fa‘‘ala (فَعَّلَ) pattern as found in Hadith Arba‘in An-Nawawiyah by Imam An-Nawawi. The main focus of this research is to identify the types and semantic functions of affixes within the verbal structures of Hadith Arba‘in and to explain their morphosyntactic roles. The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach using the distributional method (al-tawzī‘ī) through deletion and substitution techniques. The research data are derived from the original text of Hadith Arba‘in containing verbs in the fa‘‘ala pattern, such as ‘allama, ṣaddaqa, and raddada. The findings indicate that affixes in the fa‘‘ala pattern function to express transitivity (al-ta‘diyah), intensification or frequency (lil-takthīr), and removal or negation (lil-salb), which transform the characteristics of the base verb into stronger, causative, or repetitive meanings. This analysis demonstrates that affixation functions not only as a mechanism of word formation but also enriches the theological dimension of hadith meaning. The study confirms that the analysis of affix functions in augmented triliteral verbs of the fa‘‘ala pattern plays a crucial role in understanding the grammatical and semantic meanings of Hadith Arba‘in, and reveals the close relationship between Arabic morphological structure and the reinforcement of normative messages that are educational, moral, and spiritual in nature.

Abstract

This study aims to answer how prosodic structures specifically the bahr, taf‘īlah, and metrical variations such as zihāf and ‘illah are applied in the poem Ila Tabatal Hasna’ by Kiai Syuhud Zayyadi. This research is grounded in the theory of ‘ilm al ‘arūḍh as formulated by Khalil ibn Ahmad al-Farahidi, the founding figure of classical Arabic prosody, which provides a systematic framework for analyzing poetic meter through rhythmic patterns and morphological changes. The novelty of this research lies in its detailed analysis of a Nusantara scholar’s Arabic poem, an area rarely explored despite adhering to the strict rules of classical Arabic prosody. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the study employs textual analysis, including transcription into khat ‘arūdī, scansion, identification of the governing bahr, recognition of taf‘īlah patterns, and observation of metrical variations. The findings reveal consistent use of a specific bahr and the presence of zihāf, particularly the form qabdl, while no ‘illah is detected in the analyzed verses. These results demonstrate that the poetic craftsmanship of Nusantara scholars aligns with the precision of classical Arabic poetry. This study contributes to expanding prosodic research within the pesantren tradition and opens opportunities for further exploration of Arabic literary production in the Indonesian context.

Abstract

Song lyrics as a form of poetic text not only serve an aesthetic function but also contain a communicative dimension that reflects the speaker’s attitudes, intentions, and emotional states within interpersonal relationships. In the context of modern popular Arabic music, themes of betrayal and disappointment are frequently represented through language rich in pragmatic meaning. This study aims to examine the realization of illocutionary speech acts in the lyrics of “Mathasibnish” written by Amir Teima and popularized by Sherine Abdel Wahab. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, drawing on speech act theory proposed by J. L. Austin and further developed by John Searle, which classifies illocutionary acts into representative, directive, commissive, expressive, and declarative categories. The data consist of utterances in the song lyrics, collected through documentation techniques and analyzed through processes of identification, classification, and interpretation of their pragmatic functions. The findings reveal that four types of illocutionary speech acts are present in the lyrics, namely representatives, directives, commissives, and expressives, while declaratives are not identified. The dominance of expressive acts emphasizes that the song discourse is oriented toward the expression of emotion, particularly feelings of disappointment and inner pain resulting from betrayal. Meanwhile, representative, directive, and commissive acts function to reinforce the speaker’s position and decisions within the relationship.

Abstract

The film Alkhallat+ by Fahad Alammari is a social reflection of modern Saudi Arabian society, rich in human values. This study aims to analyze aspects of humanity, both individually and socially, using Lucien Goldmann's genetic structuralism theory. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative, with a dialectical analysis technique between the structure of the film text and the social context of contemporary Arab society. Previous studies show that the film Alkhallat+ a study of lucien goldmann’s genetic structuralism has been analyzed through various approaches, such as structural functionalism, pragmatics, and gender deconstruction. However, there has been no study that specifically focuses on the human aspects within the framework of genetic structuralism. Therefore, this study makes an original contribution by revealing the relationship between the individual conflicts of the characters and the collective worldview of society. The results of the study show that this film contains human facts that include moral conflicts, family tensions, gender bias, and social pressures that represent the reality of modern Arab society.
