سيماء العواطف : قراءة في قصيدة (نام الخلي)‎ للأسود بن يعفر

Abstract EN

This study aims to explore the manifestations of semiotics of emotions in “Naamal- khaliyy,” written by Al-Aswad Bin Ya`fur in order to show an important feature and tool that deal with old poetic texts.

In order to critically read this poem, the researcher depends on semiotics of emotions, the semiotics that goes beyond the field of knowledge, pragmatic discourse analysis, and semiotics of work.

Semiotics of emotions, as this study shows, cannot be disregarded because such semiotics enjoys a significant place in literary discourses.

This does not mean dealing with self’s emotions and feelings based on Psychoanalysis discourse but on the basis of concentrating on the semantic connotations of emotions rampant in the text.

The paper also aims at investigating the phenomenon in that jaahilii (pre-Islamic) poem and at studying the manifestations of the emotional cases which are connected to the Self.

The study will rely on the principles of the Semiotics of desires.

These principles are: Formation, Readiness, Fascination, Emotion and Ethics.

And this is what has been pursued by this critical reading so as to prove that the old Arabic poetic text is liable to various readings in the light of modern critical tools.

In the text in question, there have been important stages whose main goal was to discover some hidden cases of desires.

These stages serve to uncover the poet’s vision of the world which was believed to obsessed with insomnia, anxiety, fear of the future.

This means that insomnia and anxiety were two cases that dominate every aspect of the whole text
