The Semiotics of Movement in Jabour Al-Duwaihy’s Novel Matar Haziran

Abstract

The essence of movement in a novel constitutes of a semiotic given that it is inseparable from the novel's events, characters, and other elements. By studying the semiotics of emotions, we can deduce the essence of structural movement in the novel, devoid of detail, guiding the novel's overall narrative. This movement emerges through semiotic sequences that are foundational to the novel's structure. Jabbour Douaihy's novel, Matar Haziran, contains within it an essence of movement forming the basis of most scenes, and this movement is only disrupted by a significance related to the novel's world itself. The researcher concludes that a novel can carry a semiotic message that gives the work an aesthetic dimension. This message appears through the emotional sequences that the analysis reveals, revealing the nuclei of the constructive emotional movement that forms the novel, and reflects the feelings of the creator and his deep goal in constructing the novel.
