    The Descriptive Analysis of the Stereotypical representations in the Racist Discourse
    (2020-11-28) Oueld Ahmed Fatima
    This article is dedicated to the analysis of the racist ideology in literary discourse. Taking clues from discourse historical approach that explained the required discursive strategies in analyzing discourse, the present research examines the different ways in which stereotypes can be encoded in the language of literary texts as well as it investigates the linguistic manifestation of racist beliefs in the language of discourse. The study provides descriptive analysis of different lexical terms and linguistic structures in the literary text ‘ Heart of Darkness’ by Joseph Conrad to offer insights into the way language affects thought. Doing the analysis, we make an attempt to apply the five discursive strategies proposed by Martin Reisigl and Ruth Wodak (2001) to explain the linguistic manifestation of stereotypes. The results of the study revealed that the text is a kind of discourse that creates and reproduces racism with a view to establish a kind of polarization between the ingroup and the outgroup. This racist ideology that dominates the colonial narrative tends to establish social inequality, power, dominance, and discrimination.

    (مجلة دراسات وابحاث, 2021-04) Oueld Ahmed Fatima
    The current research aims at highlighting the place of cultural stereotypes in teaching colonial literature. Although culture teaching is considered as a necessity in teaching literary courses, it is not yet dealt with in a way that enables learners to be intercultural negociators. To examine teachers‘ pedagogical ways of dealing with stereotypes in teaching literary courses, the study is based on using grid observation as a method of data collection. In observing teachers’activities , questions and students‘ initial reactions , we come to the result that stereotypes have been ignored in foreign language classrooms . Consequently, this will hinder students intercultural understanding.
