ABSTRACT
The speech is not necessarily pure knowledge, but it sees the world through its use of knowledge, so that knowledge becomes part of the world’s vision, and the vision of the world in turn appears as the other part of the same knowledge, and through this blending, the authority of the discourse is generated, as the discourse is closely related – in this sense – to the concept of authority ( Authoity) in its social and political sense, as a set of relationships that do their work in the world, as power and knowledge are articulated in the discourse, so that power leaves an impact on the discourse, and so that the same power also generates knowledge and establishes discourse in an endless series of exchanging roles.
Keywords: discourse, opposition poetry, discourse authority, religion, politics.
