Abstract	:	This thesis is an analysis of performance, linguistic repetition, and silence in Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's March 30, 2011 speech to the People's Assembly given 2 weeks after riots erupted in the Syrian province of Deraa on March 15, 2011. Various types of repetition including syntactic parallelism, word strings, lexical repetition, and phonological and morphological repetition particular to Arabic syntax and its root and pattern system of morphology are analyzed along with manipulative silence and performance aspects of the speech.
