Abstract

Phenomenological and different dimensions of discourse including sensory, perceptual, emotional and aesthetic dimensions are based on systems. Greimas has divided them into action, action, tension, and action. Semantics studies based on the process of meaning production. This article has analyzed the poem "A letter to Saif bin Dhi Yazen" according to the approach of Greimas' action-oriented analysis. Relying on the action-oriented analysis approach, the authors seek to understand and explain the meaning generation process in this ode. According to the obtained results, the poem begins by drawing a tense atmosphere. The speaker is under the influence of sensory and perceptive conditions and is not receptive to these conditions. He invites Saif bin Dhi Yazen to a confrontation. According to the transcendental system that dominates the discourse, in the course of the narrative, the narrator seeks to make the spoken to move and rise. The poet portrays the reality of the stagnant and distressed society. By using movement and aesthetic schemas, it seeks to transfer the sense and perception embedded in one's existence to the spoken word and create an action stage. The narrative moves from stillness to movement. In the tense stage, the lack of interaction is drawn, and at the end, the active presence of Saif bin Zhi Yazen is established. An action that has brought liberation and life to the homeland and the land and has depicted the repossession of the homeland and the land as a valuable object
