Abstract :
Deviation from the normal standards of a language is a technique of foregrounding the discourse that is used by the literati. Deviation is a benchmark for evaluating the literary aesthetics. It also consists of the use of the terms and structures that are not common today, and has different types such as phonological deviation, typographical deviation, temporal deviation, etc. This paper attempts to study the temporal deviation (archaism) in Ghazaleh Alizadeh’s With Ghazaleh to Nowhere .Temporal deviation consists of lexical and syntactic types. The results of the study show that the writer has used the temporal deviation in her stories by using archaic and low frequency words, old names of jobs, poetic borrowing, proverbs, old forms of verbs, deletion of verbs, adjective forms, alliteration and anastrophe. This is a descriptive-analytic study and the researcher has tried to discuss the theoretical underpinnings as well as the writer’s style in the use of temporal deviation.
