Language is an important means through which one can construct one's social world. Accordingly, the way we view ourselves and the world is basically formed by language use whereby identities, relations, and values are constructed and maintained. Most discourse analysts consider narrative not only the locus of construction and enactment of identity, but also a distinguished genre for its analysis.The present study is concerned with how identity can poetically be informed, hence exploring the way black poets use language when reflecting their identity and culture. The poem, right on: white america by the black American poetess Sonia Sanchez, is chosen to be analyzed based on Simpson's stylistic model (2004). In this model, the analysis of the levels of language shapes and organizes the stylistic analysis whereas discourse is situated above the central levels of language. Stylistics and discourse analysis aim to show how and why the text means what it means linguistically. The study concludes that poetry is a potent creator and an enforcer of identity. The stylistic analysis casts light on the linguistic deviations, especially on the graphological level used by the poetess Sonia Sanchez. Such a level expresses the poetess' resistance and rage against the white. Besides, Sonia Sanchez’s use of Black English transmits her belonging to the oppressed Black.
This research is devoted to investigate the behavior and performance of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with externally bonded Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) laminates under the effect of torsion. In this study a theoretical analysis has been conducted using finite element code ANSYS. Six previously tested beams are used to investigate reinforced concrete beams behavior
under torsion, two of them are solid and the rest are box-section beams. Also, two beams are without CFRP reinforcement, which are used as control beams for the strengthened one, and the other four beams are strengthened with CFRP laminates with different number of layers and spacing. Numerical investigation is conducted on these beams, and comparisons b

It is no secret to anyone that studying and investigating books of jurisprudence, despite their suffering, is a pleasure that cannot be compared to pleasure, and it has benefits and importance that cannot be limited and summed up, and it has great fruits that researchers and students of knowledge reap, as well as enriching libraries with jurisprudential material, after dusting them and taking them out to the light of libraries to be seen. Researchers and scholars, generation after generation, so that this nation can benefit from this pioneering intellectual and scientific product that was written for us by our first ancestors of working scholars who enriched human civilization with this scientific material, which has become a beacon guid

In this paper we define and study new concepts of fibrewise topological spaces over B namely, fibrewise closure topological spaces, fibrewise wake topological spaces, fibrewise strong topological spaces over B. Also, we introduce the concepts of fibrewise w-closed (resp., w-coclosed, w-biclosed) and w-open (resp., w-coopen, w-biopen) topological spaces over B; Furthermore we state and prove several Propositions concerning with these concepts.

The definition of semi-preopen sets were first introduced by "Andrijevic" as were is defined by :Let (X , ï´ ) be a topological space, and let A ⊆, then Ais called semi-preopen set if ⊆∘ . In this paper, we study the properties of semi-preopen sets but by another definition which is equivalent to the first definition and we also study the relationships among it and (open, α-open, preopen and semi-p-open )sets.

Graceful labeling of a graph with q edges is assigned the labels for its vertices by some integers from the set such that no two vertices received the same label, where each edge is assigned the absolute value of the difference between the labels of its end vertices and the resulting edge labeling running from 1 to inclusive. An edge labeling of a graph G is called vertex anntimagic, if all vertex weights are pairwise distinct, where the vertex weight of a vertex under an edge labeling is the sum of the label of all edges incident with that vertex. In this paper, we address the problem of finding graceful antimagic labelin for split of the star graph , graph, graph, jellyfish graph , Dragon graph , ki
