Abstract

The power of style in the literature is derived from the complex grammatical, aesthetic, and syntactic potential elements of words. The written language is considered an important point as a literary style. A.Bozeman, a German theorist, has done many researches about literary style versus non-literary style; finally, he introduced the statistical equivalent in his own name. Bozeman equation; describes the amount of descriptive and literary versus non-literary vocabulary and the type of writing for women and men, and it emphasizes the literary nature of the text. Heyffaa Bitar's story "Amr'a Man Tabaqin" is one of the novels in which the author deals with women's legal issues and their rights violated by men. The present research tries to examine the female style in the story of "Amra'a min Tabaqin" according to the theoretical views of women's writing and the degree of literature and feminism of Heyffa Bitar with the help of statistical evaluation of the role of statistical theory of the German scientist; A. Bozeman analyzes and in this regard, a descriptive-analytical method is used which shows, that the feminine language is observed in many components of the writing of the story, to the extent that the most used categories are: pronouns "I" and "you", absolute and restricted words, and short questions. Bozeman's statistical style indicates a high rate of verbs with 6609 compared to adjectives with a rate of 2734, which is about 2.41 percent, and this rate weakens the story in terms of literature and the type of female language of the story.
