Abstract

Semiotic Square, as a model trying to analyze and explain the foundation of signification, was ‎firstly developed by Greimas. This model is the logical outcome of the development of binary ‎oppositions, and is based on the primary structure of signification. It was first used in the ‎structural analysis of narratives. However, Greimas, Rastier and some other members of Paris ‎school applied it in the field of semiotics of poetry, as well. Nevertheless, researches using ‎this model in the field of Persian literature are mainly concerned with its application in the ‎structural analysis of either prose or verse narratives, and as a consequence, there is no ‎comprehensive research which analyses the process of signification in poetry according to this ‎model. Hence, after providing the basic assumptions of semiotic model, the present article ‎tries to apply it in a semiotic reading of poetry. Therefore, at first the basic components of ‎semiotic square and their combination methods is explained and afterwards the internal ‎organization of the components of a poem by Attar, Mowlavi, and Hafiz is respectively ‎analyzed. Such a research not only provides the possibility of the analysis of the poem's ‎structure, and brings forth some of its latent perspectives, but also offers a reader-oriented ‎model which indicates how a potent reader recognize and categorize the semantic ‎components of the poem so as to arrive at a better understanding. ‎
