Naturalism and its Nature in Hardy’s Works
Alaidarous, Arif Abdulatif Alrayah
The English novelist Thomas Hardy tends to some extent to the tendency of naturalism within certain literary features. In addition to the features of naturalism in his works, he has some other features, though not contradictory, but is interwoven with literary works with an uneven rate.
This paper aimed at the literary style of hardy novels in terms of naturalistic tendencies that tend to present their subjects with objective scientific positions and with detailed documents, often including frankness and almost hovering around the activities and physical functions that are not usually mentioned in the literature.
The paper assumes that these novels do not tend to give great weight to the psychological complexity of characterization, i.e., an idealistic direction, a fictional form, or a presentation of an individual personality with a free will to find a very clear literary message. This is the same impression with the novels of Thomas Hardy in one form or another at least with the novels of Emile Zola and some writers of naturalism, later such as Frank Norris, Stephen Crane, Theodore Draiser and James Farrell.
In contrast to these books, the book of naturalistic tendencies, Hardy tends to show these unnatural tendencies along with his natural characteristics, but in a balanced manner, where his modern literary sensitivity, which expresses itself in the depiction of loss, alienation and revolution, seems to be a literary enhancement Clearly in the works of Hardy.
The paper sees Hardy's reality as a way of looking at life from its real perspective and portraying it with sincerity and objectivity, in contrast to the romance in which the writer portrays life as he wishes. It is a kind of revolution against the self, idealism, and sometimes ambiguity towards the romantic, but is also a kind of pursuit of literary objectivity and the employment of narrative work through the tendency of naturalism.

The Effect of Using Literature in Improving Communicative Competence
Mohammed, Salih Ahmed
This paper reviews a study that attempts to investigate the effect of using literature in enhancing the communicative competence of EFL learners. The study is a descriptive in nature. It tries to x-ray the beliefs and attitudes of the stakeholders of both parties to the teaching/learning process. Capitalizing primarily on the communicative value of literature, the study depends essentially on the best practices of the reflective practitioners on the ground; trying hard to make its conclusions both knowledge-based and evidence-based with the ultimate aim of offering a feasible solution that allows the two ends of the form/function dichotomy to sit comfortably with one another. The tools used for data collection were rigorously developed to ensure both aspects of reliability and validity. The samples were randomly drawn from the targeted population in order to be as representative as possible. The collected data were statistically analyzed and objectively discussed to arrive at the best possible results. The study came up with the main conclusion that using literature has the potentiality of enhancing the communicative competence of the EFL learners. The findings of the study correlate with the results of the previous studies carried out in situations that are similar to the context in which the present study was conducted.
