    This study aims to explore the use of deixis of persona, time, and place in the novel Sa'atu Al-Baghdad by Shahad Al-Rawi. Understanding the use of deixis in Arabic literary works helps prevent misunderstandings in communication in the Arab world. This research is a qualitative research. The approach used in this research refers to the theory of deixis according to George Yule, which includes persona deixis, time deixis, and place deixis. Data collection in this research uses the listening method followed by note- taking technique. Data analysis technique in this research uses content analysis method. The result of this research shows the forms of deixis in Sa'atu Al-Baghdad novel by Shahad Al-Rawi such as persona deixis, time deixis, and place deixis. In persona deixis, there are uses such as ت (me), ن (us), أنت (you women), كم (you guys), إنها (him), and ون/عوا/هم (them), which describe the relationship between characters and their position in the story. Time deixis includes words like بعد قليل (a little later), هذا اليوم (that day), and أحيانا (sometimes), which provide a clear temporal orientation in the narrative. Meanwhile, place deixis includes تحت (below), هناك (there), أمام (in front), فوق (above), هنا (here), and في هذا المكان (here), which enriches the depiction of the story setting. The use of deixis in this novel serves not only as a linguistic element, but also as an effective pragmatic tool to build narrative depth, emotional connection, and relevant cultural context for readers. This research provides new insights in understanding the role of deixis in Arabic literary works and its importance in intercultural communication

    Narrating psychological realism and time temporality: A critical study of Shahad Al Rawi’s The Baghdad Clock

    No full text
    Psychological realism in contemporary prose fiction focuses on the internal life of characters, emphasizing subjective experiences and memory. Time, in such fiction, transcends its mechanical measurement and is instead understood through psychological perception. This paper examines The Baghdad Clock (2018) by Shahad Al Rawi through the lens of Paul Ricoeur’s theory in Time and Narrative, exploring how the novel disrupts linear temporality to reflect the psychological trauma of war. The study argues that Al Rawi constructs a non-linear narrative where the past, present, and future converge, creating a temporal structure that mirrors Iraq’s national trauma. Utilizing a structural approach and integrating theories of psychological realism and narrative temporality, the study reflects on how memory, trauma, and time shape both personal and collective identities in post-2003 Iraqi fiction. The significance of this study lies in its exploration of temporal disorientation and narrative innovation as responses to prolonged conflict, trauma, and historical rupture in Iraq’s recent past

    Skema aktan dan struktur fungsional dalam Novel Sa'atu Al-Baghdad karya Shahad Al-Rawi: Kajian semiotika Naratif A. J. Greimas

    War and collective trauma often appear in modern Arabic literature, especially in works that reflect the socio-political conditions in the Arab world. Shahad al-Rawi's novel Sa'atu al-Baghdad depicts childhood experiences in Baghdad during war, embargo, and destruction. The narrative of this novel is not only built from the story, but also from the structure and complex relationships between characters. This study aims to analyze the narrative structure of the novel using A. J. Greimas' narrative semiotics approach, especially the actant scheme and functional structure. The method used is qualitative-descriptive with reading and note-taking techniques. The results of the study show that the main character acts as a subject who is driven by past memories to find the meaning of life. The relationship between actants such as family, friends, and lovers acts as supporters, while war and trauma act as opponents that strengthen the dynamics of the story. The functional structure describes the psychological transformation of the main character from an initial peaceful situation, experiencing an existential crisis, to achieving inner stability. Greimas' narrative semiotic theory successfully reveals the depth of the story structure and meaning of this novel. This study contributes to the narrative analysis of modern Arabic novels by applying Greimas' semiotic model, which has never been used before in this literary tex

    Abstract Author: Shahad HassanTitle: The meaning of an ADHD-diagnosis Supervisor: Urlika Järkestig-BerggrenAssessor: Torbjörn Forby The purpose of this study is to show how biographers and chroniclers with an ADHD-diagnosis describe their identity experiences before, during and after diagnosis. The purpose is also to show if these identity experiences can be understood based on deviance and stigma.The result showed that the authors had a negative view of themselves before the diagnose ADHD. The negative views they had come from the environment that negatively affected them. After the diagnosis, the self-image has improved, the authors began to understand themselves much more than before. The results also showed that ADHD- diagnosis gave a confirmation of the identity. Many authors that felt lost said that the diagnosis has led them to being identified. The conclusion of the study is that the authors have different experiences of the diagnosis. But some of them showed that ADHD may have a connection to stigma and at the same time it also confirms the identity.                                                                                         Keywords:  ADHD, ADHD diagnosis, identity, stigma, self image, environmen

    Soft Robots: Implementation, Modeling, and Methods of control

    No full text
    Soft robotics is a branch of robotics that focuses on technologies with physical features that are like those of live biological creatures. Additionally, they have many details that are hard, if not impossible, to realize with traditional robots which are composed of solid materials. This study concentrates on the current expansion of soft pneumatic actuators for modern soft robotics in recent years, with an emphasis on three areas: Implementation of soft robots, Modeling, and Methods of control systems. Therefore, numerous soft robotic designs and ways to make them suitable for medical, manufacturing, and agricultural applications have been presented. Moreover, a set of functional and technological aspects have been given to review models similar to human hand functionality and motions. To realize the advanced soft robotic hand manipulation function, robotic hands must be equipped with tactile sensing, that sensing is required to provide continuous data on the volume and direction of forces at all contact locations. The research examines achievements in material science, actuation, sensing techniques, and manufacturing technologies, as well as how to model and control a soft robot's motion, all of which are scientifically challenging and, more importantly, practical
