Analysis of the discursive role of woman and discursive appeasement in the story of jalal AL-Ahmaeds Lak-e-surati(pink Lacquer

This research examines the woman’s role as a hero and one of the semiotic actants in the story of Lake Surati (Pink Lacquer) written by Jalal Al-Ahmad. In addition to identifying the semotic role of woman, the researcher intends to address the issue of whether woman has discursive appeasement against man and also whether man has discursive appeasement against woman. According to the definition of discursive appeasement that is surrendering of a character in the game of the other we see that the woman enters the role of an appeaser and ignores her desire under the influence of appeasement. Also, appeasement between two discourse agents, i.e. man and woman, is not two-way, and only woman ignores her presence and is under the command of man through appeasement. The woman in this story dissatisfied with her own Dasein, seeks the transcendence. She is also considered an actant who is looking for pink lacquer in a completely planned way, which is considered a valuable material object.
