    Intertextuality: Raising the Issue of Originality
    (Journal maqamat, 2023) Zoulaikha Elbah
    Abstract: Every text exists within a network of relations with preceding, surrounding, and following texts of the same or different authors. Even at the level of the same text, one cannot escape intertextual relations. This study aims to shed light on intertextuality in relation to originality issue. In other words, admitting the unescapable intertextual character of all texts, one might question whether we can still assign originality to a given text in spite of being based on other ones. To answer this question, we refer to two important notions credited to a post-modernist understanding to reality: pre-existing reality and emerging reality. Accordingly, meaning is defined as a constructed reality that signals both a pre-existing aspect (an intertext) and an emerging one (a new perspective). It is at the level of an emerging reality that one can look for potential originality at the level of both form and function. ملخص: يوجد كل نص ضمن شبكة من العلاقات مع النصوص السابقة، المحيطة، والتالية لنفس المؤلف أو مؤلفنٌ مختلفنٌ. حتى أنو لا يمكن تفادي ىذا النوع من العلاقات بنٌ أجزاء النص الواحد. تهدف ىذه الدراسة إلى إلقاء الضوء على ظاىرة التناص فيما يتعلق بموضوع الأصالة. بعبا رة أخرى، مع الاقرار بالطابع المتداخل لجميع النصوص، قد يتساءل المرء عن امكانية الحديث عن أصالة نص معنٌ كونو قائمًا على نصوص أخرى. للإجابة على ىذا السؤال، نشنً إلى مفهومنٌ مهمنٌ يُنسبان إلى نررية ما بعد الحداثة: المعنى الموجود مسبقًا و المعنى الناشئ. وفقًا لذلك، يتم تعريف المعنى على أنو واقع مركب جزء منو يشنً إلى جانب موجود مسبقًا )نص بيني( و جزء اخر يشنً الى جانب ناشئ )منرور جديد(. انو على مستوى المعنى الناشئ يمكن للمرء أن يبحث عن أصالة النص في ما يخص الشكل والمضمون.

    Speech Act Theory: The Force of an Utterance
    (Ichkalat journal, 2022) Zoulaikha Elbah
    Abstract: One of the most important theories in early Pragmatics is that of Austin’s Speech Act Theory. In How to do things with words (1962), which was published posthumously, Austin uncovers the power of language in getting things done. Calling this power the FORCE of a speech act, Austin situates language within a larger enterprise of human actions. Speech Act Theory is the level of analysis that goes beyond naming entities or judging linguistic structures. By focusing on the nonliteral meaning that arises in language in use, Speech Act Theory fosters a third level of analysis to language in use. This article attempts to trace the main claims of Austin’ Speech Act Theory, with much focus on the difference between constatives and performatives. A major distinction states that while the former are either true or false, the latter are either happy or unhappy
