The Master's thesis at the College of Art at the University of Basrah discussed the manifestations of "Hijaj" in the performance of theatre actors, between the text and the presentation.
The thesis, which was presented by the researcher Hazem Adnan Aboud, focuses on "Hijaj," a significant linguistic concept that plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of verbal performance. Language serves as the foundation upon which actors base their production of the discourse system, utilizing the power and effectiveness of theatrical performance.
The objective of this thesis is to uncover the foundations of "Hijaj" and explore how these foundations manifest through written text and theatrical performance, as well as the interaction between the two in shaping theatrical discourse.
The thesis concludes that actors employ "Hijaj" as one of the techniques in their theatrical presentations. It is a means by which they attempt to engage opposing voices and establish communicative bridges between themselves and the audience.
