Discourse is a speech of communication. It is conceptual frameworks which enable some mode of thought and deny or severely constrain certain others (Foucault p.6). Discourse Analysis has introduced a new methods of research, new avenues of conceptualizing research questions, new ways understanding and looking at the nature of literary texts. Analysis of such discourse deals with the producer that are writer and speaker; and the consumer that are reader and audience, in which language is invested in a specific way of talking about and understanding the world. This include all text and talks in the form of fiction (poetry, novels, plays, graphic narratives such as comics, graphic novels, memoirs, movies etc.), non-fiction, conversation, blog, interview, newspapers, magazines, essay, advertisement, notice board, engraved word, and all such possible medium of speech communications. Discourse Analysis is a general term for all the possible approaches use to examine and understand in relation to social interactions.
