The semiotics of the untold story in the novel “The Crow’s Leg” by Yahya Amqasem

Resumen

Through our study of the subject of the semiotics of the untold story in the novel “The Crow’s Leg”, we aimed to show the image of the religious, moral and political prohibitions through the intersection of discourses with the social and cultural levels highlighted by the semantic context in the discourse. The study used the semiotic approach that highlights the mechanisms of the narrative discourse operating on the semiotic dimensions and the significance of the untold story through the strategy of the raised issues (religion–politics–ethics). At the end of our study we get to the importance of the semiotic dimensions that extend from the signifier to the signified by devoting the untold story theme more deeply through the significance of the religious prohibition , in which we focus on the centrality of women and the mixing with men in many domains that are considered by the principality as forbidden by Sharia, which we dealt with as a religious prohibition. Also in this study we came to the essence of the semiotic concepts and what is content through methodological tools that study the semantic world of the novel and its basic minor moral units that are only achieved in its relation with the other elements and which are based on a common semantic axis in the untold story and its interpretations in the body of the novel.
