An Intercultural And Dialogic Analysis Of Faqir’s The Cry Of The Dove

Résumé: ct Literature is a system of representations; it is a way to represent the author’s vision through his/her writings by the means of language. This work deals with the representation of dialogism and interculturality in Fadia Faqir’s The Cry of the Dove since it is a novel where different cultures meet and different languages and voices occur. The aim behind this study is to analyse the ways in which dialogism and interculturality are portrayed by Fadia Faqir as an Arab Anglophone woman writer. This work addresses some questions about the depiction of these literary techniques in the novel and to which extent can they be interrelated, and after examining the hypotheses, the research findings shed light on the ways in which the representation of different cultures and the multiplicity of languages and voices create the dialogic relations in the novel. This work is divided into two chapters; the first one deals with the theoretical part “Dialogism and Interculturality in Literature” in which the main concepts of the title are defined in addition to the introduction of the author ‘Fadia Faqir’, whereas the second chapter provides an exemplified analysis of dialogism and interculturality in The Cry of the Dove.
