Abstract

Semiotics investigates the relationship between symbols and meanings and their formation. Literary semiotics tries to discover the unknown of the world within the text by analyzing linguistic semiotics and understanding the semantic connections between the words of the poem. Charles Peircerevolutionized the semioticsby his three-dimensional model of symbol structure and provided literary critics with a precise scientific method for examining the semantic structure of poetry. Bassam Hajar is one of the poets of modern thought that death is one of the main concepts and themes of his poetry and most of his poems are dedicated to death and death thinking. Based on Peirce''s theory, this article tries to examine the process of making poetic symbols related to the concept of death in Bassam Hajar''s poem and recounts the unrevealed messages in the deep levels of his poems. The results showed that he has used aesthetic, author, temporal, spatial and collocations codes to produce poetic symbols related to the concept of death.The use of explicit meanings of his poems words has helped the reader to choose carefully the implicit meaning appropriate to the concept of death from countless implicit meanings, revealing the poet''s main purpose, ideology and contradictory feelings about death, which are incomprehensible in the first reading and uncovering the secondary layers of the text.
