Yasmina Reza’s literary style offers two options for conveying the unspoken: the first is through the use of typographical devices such as silences and pauses to indicate a lack of verbal expression, and the second is through the use of empty spaces within words themselves that remain without a full meaning. It is crucial to note that Reza’s theatrical works are not intended to have a singular, explicit meaning throughout the reading, but rather comprise layered explorations of both the expressed and unexpressed. It is the reader’s task to read the text carefully, to identify and reveal the various forms of the unsaid, including presuppositions, implicatures, underlying messages, references, suggestions, and more. The present article, therefore, seeks to examine presuppositions in the verbal interactions among characters in Yasmina Reza’s plays. Drawing upon both pragmatics and conversation analysis, we aim to uncover the extent of the unsaid within Yasmina Reza’s plays, while highlighting the significance of presuppositions as rich, informative pragmatic tools.

A man-nature relationship is as old as the existence of humanity on Earth. Obsessed by his ambitions, Man has built an inequitable relationship with nature, thinking that it exists to ensure his survival and prosperity regardless of its right to survive. The result was an apocalyptic change in the ecosystem, whose protection has become inescapable. Thus, many attempts by theorists and writers, beside scientists and ecologists, have been devoted to such a purpose. Although they sometimes vary in their premises, they have the same aim, namely the survival of the ecosystem. Cheryll Glotfelty’s Ecocriticism and Arne Naess’s theory of deep ecology belong to such a category. Ecocriticism is an interdisciplinary movement that asserts the responsibility of literature towards the environment through the analysis of literary works about environmental issues. Notably, the diversity of approaches and multiplicity of interrelated waves are among the core features of Ecocriticism. Arne Naess represents such an ecocritical approach through his theory of deep ecology, which attempts to reconstruct the man-nature relationship from anthropocentrism into ecocentrism. Such a sense of environmentalist commitment is echoed in the Climate Change Fiction. Therefore, this paper aims to study Naess’s theory of deep ecology, as a representative of the ecocritical approach, to elucidate the influence of the climate change crisis on anthropogenic fiction. In addition, it examines diverse perspectives of novelists from different settings towards such a catastrophe, showing how these perspectives vary between hope and

The main objective of this study is to highlight the concept of secularization in contemporary literature. In this light, this paper seeks to conduct a comparative analysis in two literary texts from different cultural backgrounds: Almudena Grandes' Kisses on the Bread and Nawal As-Sadawi 's God Resigns at the Summit Meeting . Although both writers utilize similar and shared concepts, they showcase some differences influenced by their cultural backgrounds. This comparative analysis will follow the principles of the American school of comparative literature combined with the sociological approach. The main aim is to examine features of secularization and reflect on the social contexts, represented in both texts. Furthermore, the study highlights some similarities and differences between the two writers.

The fact of manmade prompted global warming and climate change is incredibly evident, yet the required universal action to handle this existential problem is still indolent. The growing need for an instant reaction to the current environmental emergency becomes a necessity and forms a new reality nowadays. There is an imminent threat that will overwhelm the entire realm if major preemptive actions are not taken in response to peoples’ repulsive behavior towards the environment. In this respect, the present paper intends to illuminate the ability and intent of Green Theatre in redirecting the course of the universal conduct towards nature in a path that can result in a constructive ecosocial reformation. Following this argument, the ecocritical theory is applied in analyzing Lucy Kirkwood’s The Children (2017) in an attempt to figure out the play’s ability in meeting a ‘Green’ agenda amidst a terrifying disorder of manmade and natural disasters. Kirkwood’s cautionary disaster play succeeds in making a tense drama out of the catastrophic results of human meddling in the natural sphere. Thus, patronizing this kind of eco-friendly Theatre and placing it into the frontier in the noble fight for the sustainability of natural and human existence can foster a collective potential awareness to actively indulge in ‘Green’ morals and practices that can lead to environmental safety and integrity.

This paper focuses on employing ecological discourse analysis (EDA)in studying presidential political discourse. The paper aims to investigate the discourse and significant ecological elements in the political address given by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi, at the COP27 opening session on November 7 th , 2022. With a focus on the language utilized, the study placed these subjects discussed in the speech in their respective social and cultural settings. The speech is analyzed using EDA as a theoretical framework. The data obtained were analyzed using a variety of resources. The analysis depends on an explanatory framework that offers an outline for analyzing discourse and demonstrates the discursive and aesthetic techniques used to convey the intended meanings. This study attempts to contextualize the current state of the world by focusing on the global topic of “climate change” as it is being addressed by world leaders within a speech community and enclosing linguistic and discursive issues within. Presidential discourse is globally critical, therefore approaching it from an EDA viewpoint is significant. The results of the study revealed that the language of the speech was used tactfully to arrive at the intended goals of the speaker. Regulative discourse is widely employed in the speech of the Egyptian president to achieve different ecological ideologies. The study’s findings demonstrated that this speech had its distinctive characteristics, and that language was skillfully exploited to achieve the speaker’s desired
