Abstract: (1069 Views) |
One of the most important high-level documents in the political life of the Islamic Revolution of Iran is the statement known as the second step statement. Despite the undeniable importance of this statement, there have been less theoretical studies to analyze its linguistic components for a better understanding of its discourse. Therefore, this research with a descriptive-analytical method, using the role-oriented linguistic approach of Halliday and Matthiessen (2014), will analyze the ideological and interpersonal trans-roles of this statement in order to find out how the writer's experience of the statement is represented in the real world and also to reflect the way of exchanging the meaning between the writer and the audience better. The results obtained from the study of intellectual and interpersonal trans-roles based on the dominant frequency of material, relational and mental processes and the dominant material construction of clauses with absent subject, present tense, positive polarity and predicative aspect indicate a clear, decisive and realistic discourse. |
