Abstract:
The current study aims to survey a discourse about the Iranian nomadic people within the Critical Discourse Analysis framework using the advantages of Van Leeuwen's model of representing social actors. For this reason, Dar Boyer-Ahmad, written by Mohammad Bahmanbeigi, has been studied to identify how the writer uses the representation of social actors to express his own ideology and viewpoints. The results show that the representation of social actors in this story is purposeful, and serves the writer's social and conceptual attitudes. The writer, using the advantages of spatialization legitimizes the rebellions occurred in Boyer- Ahmad and shows the unity of Boyer- Ahmadi's people. The writer activates all of the Boyer- Ahmadi's social actors from the students to the rebels but passivates the female actors to foreground the oppression of women in nomadic societies. On the one hand, the writer categorizes the social actors to demonstrate them as people engaged in common complications and on the other hand, he nominates them specifically and individually to both picture them as distinguished persons and indicate the cultural norms dominating the nomination of children in the nomadic societies. Avoiding the nomination of female actors, the writer shows the respect the nomadic people consider for women and the appraisements and symbolizations of the text serve to portray the social actors as brave people with long family and historical background.
