The semiotics of the title in a book (Kan Lana.. Awtan) by the poet Farouk Jweideh

Abstract

      The title is the first gateway to the text, and it is part of the text. Rather, it is a text in itself that has a possibility that differs from what the text intended. Because of its importance, the poet tried to take different methods through which he enters the mind of the recipient and attracts him using intentional methods that make the recipient sink into the veil of the hidden text in order to monitor the aesthetics of that text and its poetry. Therefore, this study came as an attempt to reveal the poet's ability to use titles and the extent of its connection in the poetic text. Although there is a study of the poet himself in his other poetry collections, however, this poetical work (Kan Lana Awtan) has been neglected. Through this research, we try to reveal the characteristics of titles and the cultural and cognitive richness they carry, as the title formed a distinguished presence in the poetical work.
