Department of English at the College of Arts Organizes a Seminar Titled "Shifts in Modern Critical Discourse"

Dr. Hamid Mardan Al Samir examined the most important shifts in the modern critical discourse. He showed that critical discourse has achieved a long epistemological span in its journey of approaching the text, analyzing its formal and contextual structure and the attempt to localize the text within the prevalent social culture.

This session aimed at showing the potentiality of discourse transference between the contextual curricula, the textual ones and interactional curricula that dialectically and epistemologically interact with the text theses that are manifested across the active productive reading. This contributes in producing an open critical view that is slipped off the normative methodology.
