AbstractThe present dissertation investigates the aspects of utopia and dystopia of Gibran Khalil’s TheProphet. Gibran has produced fictional world to condemn his society, and to define whatcould be the characteristics of an idealistic society. He carefully has chosen his main characterAlmustafa, a mixture of all religions and beliefs, to address humanity as a whole. He hascreated imaginary place for his utopian dream, which is the city of Orphalese. Although hecame from different culture, he has tackled common social issues that are still debatable inour modern society, such as materialism and the restriction of individual freedom. He wasconcerned with what constitutes a utopian society and the necessary characteristics of an idealnation. Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis theory of literary criticism has beenimplemented in this study in order to extract all the textual and the meta-textual meanings andthemes in the studied work. The Prophet is a utopian work that is written in dystopian time.Gibran’s dream of utopia, while related to his specific and different background, poses manyquestions. The analysis had demonstrated that The Prophet is the intersection of utopiandreams and dystopian realities.
