Read More Iconicity which represents the aroused link between a significance and a signifier, considers the language structure influenced by human's emotional perception from the outside world as a metalanguage factor. This principle is considering the sign of a cognition from the most important beautification elements and the most main tools of transmission of meaning in Nizar Qabbani's poem. In this regard, the present research is accomplished aiming to be characterized different levels of phonetic arousal in the poet's poems on an appendix from the highest to the lowest degree of clarity in the framework of phonetic symbolism theory by Hinton & et, al.The analysis of Qabbani poems based on the continuum proposed by Hinton and his colleagues is important because by relying on this method in an objective and coherent way and based on modern scientific principles, we can examine the phonetic significance of signs and determine their degrees of arusal. Explained the linguistic forms with their examples in real world; therefore, in the present stydy, we try to examine different types of arusal from the highest to the lowest degree of clarity in Qabbani poems according to Hintonˈs phonetic symbolism pattern and answer these qustions. Be: what are the types of principal signs in Nizar Qabbaniˈs poem? Can signs be placed on a continuum from the ultimate arusal to the ultimate symbolism? Dose the imagery of Qabbaniˈs signs and poetry contradict the principle of optional words? The research results represent that different kinds of phonetic symbolism in Qabbani's poem are: objective, imitative, combinational and conventional. The objective signs in the poet's poems include emotional sounds and expressions of interjection, surprise and ... contain the most level of iconicity. Then, sequentially, imitative symbols in the form of words, onomatopoeia, combinational signs which are observed in the form of vowel repetition or special correspondency, and conventional symbols which are formed with sequence of certain phonemes, are ranked in second, third and fourth position of the continuum.

Read More Research "Semantics of Place in the play of “kharej-al-serb”by Mohammed Al-magout" Using a descriptive-analytic method based on Farzan Sujoudi's theory, he has studied the layered element of the place and has examined how it is related to other symbolic levels. The semantic analysis of the place in the play is important in that respect that Based on this method one can examine the explicit and implicit function of the place element in identifying the hidden talents of the text and the secondary concepts related to the cultural, political and economic values of society. In addition, by presenting a new reading of the literary work, he expressed the influence of this element in explaining the possibilities of textual creation and by examining how it relates to other levels, it has played a role in shaping dramatic discourse. The purpose of this study is to explain the most important Symptoms of place and how they are organized, Describe the function of the cues mentioned in the formation of text encryption systems such as scene, personality, conflict and time. On the other hand, the impact of this system in place of the representations is described. The purpose of this study is to answer the following questions: How has the place code been linked to other markup levels? What characteristic and structural components do these passwords have in the aforementioned play? The results of this research indicate the place is formed in the form of a cryptocurrency layer consisting of numerous surfaces and deep-level structures. This layer contributes objectively and abstractly to the creation of dramatic discourse and the representation of social cultural meanings, sometimes it manifests physically on stage, sometimes its objective function is weakened and its mental aspects is enhanced. It can be said that understanding and interpreting space as a semiotic process is possible by studying how it correlates and interacts with the branding layers in the play. There is interplay between location and other layers. On the one hand, Place explicitly and implicitly promotes surfaces such as decor, light, sound, and so on. On the other hand, those levels have a great impact on the organization and selection of Place components.
