The present study is not only the first comprehensive study about a Kurdish poet using Text World theory, but also the first research of the formation of the location of the text world layer of Chair written by Shirko Bikas which has been done with the descriptive-analytic method and the aim of achieving the location of the text world of Chair based on Text World Theory. The data were selected and collected from Shirko’s work titled Chair. Examining the formation of the text world of Chair using world-building elements and function-advancing propositions showed that the text world of Chair is represented through place names, and in the absence of place names, through the world-building elements of time and character. Also, one part of the representation of the location of the text world of Chair is obtained through the verbal phrases of function-advancing propositions. In addition, the representation of location in the text world of Chair provided cognitive-poetic evidence to support Shirko’s claim that location and names cover a wide range of her works.
