Methodology

Fowler considers literature as a discourse and in his opinion, literature should be considered as a mediator between language users that has a communication function and the literary text is no longer an object and becomes an action or process that serves communication. Paul J introduces discourse as a meaningful body. In his approach, he analyzed the role of language in discourse and considers language to have a discourse function. In other words, the analysis of critical discourse according to Paul J means the analysis of language in its functional dimension. Paul Gee's approach in discourse analysis is a process based on the action-oriented analysis of discourse and the study of language in its functional dimensions. Gee 's approach can be seen as a developed approach from Theo van Leeuwen's critical approach, which examines linguistic functions, social actors and their representation in political discourse.
