Abstract

Purpose: The novel "Daryas and the Corpses", one of the works of the prolific writer "Bachtyar Ali", is a type of social-philosophical novel that ranks among modern novels. The main goal of this research is to describe and analyze the components of Bakhtin's polyphonic theory.
 
Method and Research: In this study, assuming that in the present era another reading of the novel "Daryas and the Corpses" can be presented, the authors have investigated and analyzed the novel based on Bakhtin's theory of dialogical logic in a descriptive-analytical method.
 
Findings and Conclusions: In this novel, the transition from magical realism to a kind of social realism, the variety of voices, characters, worldviews, and discourses of different classes of society about one of the most important concepts of modern Kurdish human life, i.e. the phenomenon of "Revolution" are well recognizable. "Polyphony" which is the basis of the analysis of the present novel, is one of the most basic concepts in the critical opinions of the Russian writer and critic, "Mikhail Bakhtin". In the novel, plural voices are present, each of which has its own position. All voices, parallel and single are in motion and not necessarily the narrator in the exclusive speaker. We are faced with a "Polyphonic" work that Bachtyar Ali artistically created by using several distinct narrative characters with distinc educational, political, societal ... characteristics, in a multi-dimensional novel.
