This rigorous research attempts to decipher the covert rhetoric -ideology of peace and justice-reflected in Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's UNOGA address, 2015. This paper examines the relationship between text and elements of power and ideology reflected in PM's political discourse from dialectical perspective. Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) bases on "social critique and transformative action for change on a critique of discourse" (Fairclough, 2015) and it advances from endoxa (opinion) to praxis (action) to reflect change in existing reality. The researcher employs Fairclough's (1989Fairclough's ( , 1995 three dimensions model that includes text analysis (description), processing analysis (interpretation) and social analysis (explanation). This study also assesses Faircloughian conjecture that "ideologies embed in texts" and "texts are open to diverse interpretations" (Fairclough, 1995). The selected speech of the PM in term of corpus' power and ideological components are critiqued and assessed. It is also attempted to decode how clandestine elements of power and ideology underpin the leaders' discourses and how their linguistic strategies and discourses exercise power and ideologies to shape opinion of the readers or listeners to understand realities better as "using of language involves something that goes beyond the acquisition of structures" (Yalden, 1987).
<p>Present study is based on stylistic analysis of the poem ‘Daffodils” written by a very famous romantic poet William Wordsworth. This analysis is made on the graphological, phonological, morphological and semantic level to analyze what the poet wants to convey by mentioning the memories of a very small, yet important cure for human beings in the form of gifted memories of lovely past. Stylistic techniques and methods are used to unfold the hidden beauty of the poet’s thoughts. Since stylistic is the study of different devices used in language that gives expressive or literary style to any writing so, keeping in view, this article aims to figure out the secret jewels of these beautiful lines. This analysis is helpful in understanding the basic concept that Nature can bring peace of mind to a dejected soul. The stylistic devices used in this poem are the setting of the poem along with the figures of speech. Through this analysis the researcher wants to explore how the social and cultural background of a poet affects on the usage of Nature in the poetry. The researcher will explore how the use of figurative speech enhances the impact of the poetry at the readers mind.</p>
