Abstract

This study examines the scenario of “ Café Setareh” movie through discourse analysis of Laclau and Mouffe and critical discourse analysis as well as linguistic analysis. This study reveals the discourse formation of both traditional and modern views in interaction with each other in order to approve the semantic system and describe how and by which means this process is done.It clarifies how traditional and modernism as hegemonized nets and naturalized discourses are articulated by persuasion and other linguistic devices . One of the most fundamental points in this essay is the real situation of women in all social status and the inner effectiveness power of women as active people in discourse which tries to represent and articulate the discourse nets particularly traditional dimension.In this study we describe that there is no challenge among them to deconstruct antagonistic discourse perfectly. In other words, although traditional discourse is a kind of dominant discourse, there is no way to be marginalized perfectly by antagonistic discourse so, it is claimed that modernism forms under the shadow of tradition.
