Abstract

“Figure of speech and meaning in the story The Picture of His Sovereignty by Shukri al-Mabkhout” is the title of the research in Story’s Literary Genre. Contents of his text are a reality that moves to history from the perspective of critical thought of events wanted by Shukri al-Mabkhout in The Picture of His Sovereignty from his short story collection ‘The Chief Lady’. A pun on a major dialectic that is the framework of the discourse in its words and meanings, and in his narrative imagination and critical analysis from the perspective of the writer/thinker, and in reading the text: text and interpretation. Intertwined, issues may illusion the story - with its specificities of the literary genre that limits it - by not absorbing it, but the power of manifestations and possibilities expands the circle of the narrative articulation in the contexts of saying and the positions of reception. It poses problems that do not go beyond the framework of relationships in meaning and semantics deduced from structures of the text and eloquence of the discourse, and can be traced back to: 1. Language in the origins of the lexicon, references to the concept, and power between the illusion of existence and the reality of absence; 2. Manifestations of the fall and the falsity of power in the margin of the axis and the axis of the margin; 3. Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) between whiteness and blackness derives the possibility of semantics from the space of the paper and from the eloquence of the rhetoric in embracing the pun.
