The ratio of government apparatus to social institutions has a special place in Mahmoud Dolatabadi’s short stories which has often been overlooked due to being in the shadow of Kalidar. Accordingly, by analyzing the actions and reactions of social groups with the state institution that are the Quasi-nation of the nation, one can define and explain this two-way relationship which takes into account the legitimacy of the power institution from the point of view of society. The results of the receipt and explanation of these works reflect the fact that there is a kind of alienation, rupture, and fission between the institutional power and the community that led to the confrontation between the two institution. On the other hand, the reflection of this confrontation is based on linguistic and literary techniques embodied in fictional masterpieces. From the point of view of ideological function, it means the increasing deepening of the discontinuity. In the final analysis, it focuses on a kind of decriminalization of the dominant political discourse of the Pahlavi era.

own self dimensions and delegitimize the others’ elements; legitimation, from the semiotic-discursive point of view, is a process that hegemonizes power through discourse articulation. The authors’ aim in this paper is to investigate and identify the way in which the legitimating mechanisms of gendered discourses function in contemporary Persian story literature. Hence, they provide a deconstructive reading of the methodology of Van Leeuwen (2007) based on Laclau and Mouffe (2001) and Derrida (1983) and take advantage of a variety of linguistic tools. Then, in order to analyze the functions of these mechanisms, they go through the “Solok” and purposefully examine some of its parts. Finally, they respond to the research question about how the legitimizing mechanisms of gendered discourses operate and introduce four structures, i.e. simple, compound, complex, and chain, in those mechanisms. Moreover, they show that after gaining and achieving the legitimacy, the gendered discourses step forward to maintain and fix the legitimacy and delegitimize the other explicitly and implicitly- by the way of recontextualization.

 

The purpose of this research is to reach the dimensions of the meaning and theme of the first verse of Bustan, which, in understanding it, should receive the relation of the text to the social and cultural context in which it was produced. The method of this study is a critical analysis of discourse. In this approach, one of the points emphasized is that context is a social action reflecting the social inequalities in language. In this case, the legitimation or delegitimation methods are considered by Theo van Leeuwen, a discourse critical analysis theorist. In this pattern, critic tries to show how a context on study can represent a discourse legitimate or illegitimate by language satisfactory power. The main four methods of discourse legitimation are: 1- authorization; 2- moral evaluation, 3- rationalization, and 4- mythopoesis. Each method has various forms, and this research analyzes the first chapter of Bustan directly related to the governmental discourse in terms of legitimation methods. The final result of research is that, in the first chapter of Bustan, Sa’di's method for legitimation or delegimation of an issue in governmental discourse is rationalization, as it is natural according to the context audience, mainly including courtiers. The example of phrases Sa’di confirms the legitimation in governmental discourse in his lingual and literal processing is as follows: paying attention to the farmers, the passengers and businessmen for further development, confidentiality in governance affairs, accompaniment with scientists and clever, and such alike. But the world mortality and paying attention to the farmers are more frequent. Cruelty to the farmer has been more emphasized among the phrases delegitimated.

The present essay attempts to accomplish a Weberian reading of Marsha Norman’s Getting Out, ‘Night, Mother, and Third and Oak. The depicted status quo in the selected plays corresponds with the concept of conflict, propounded in Max Weber’s Economy and Society, which is the main concept of this study. Conflict which is a social phenomenon that occurs due to inequality in class, status, and power, can be found through the life of the characters. As class is associated with economy and status is associated with prestige, the level of prestige and economy and its relation to power are examined through the process of conflict. Through this process, while domination appears due to the power, it transforms to authority if its legitimacy happens out of the submission of the other part. This study tries to probe the inevitability of conflict, the reactions of the individuals through the process of conflict, the elements which have a role in this process, and also the types of authority that emerge due to the compliance of the subjects. Through the examination of the mentioned issues, the current study aims to see the different consequences of the conflict. While ‘Night, Mother and Third and Oak convey the negative aspect of the conflict, Getting Out depicts the positive one.
