Abstract
Semiotics is one of the methods of literary criticism which has a special place in modern literature. Charles Sanders Peirce, an American semiotician, made a frame for semiotic studies by rejecting the two-dimensional structure of the sign and presenting his three-dimensional model. Linguistic signs play an essential role in the production of new poetic texts, so Peirce's semiotics model is considered an accurate and appropriate method for analyzing modern poetry. Abdul Azim Fanjan, a modern Iraqi poet whose main poetic motives are love and romantic themes, has a particular style of expression by his new poetic language and artistic use of linguistic signs. The present study tries to investigate the formation of signs that make up the concept of love in Abdul Azim Fanjan poetry by descriptive-analytical methods based on Pierce's three-dimensional model. It also expresses the role of three components of signs, namely representation, subject and interpretation. From the results, it is inferred that the signs related to love are produced in the form of temporal, spatial, intertextual codes and based on succession and companionship. According to the category of priority, duality and tertiary, representation of each one depicts the qualitative state of the sign, subject shows the practical dimension of the poet's emotional experiences in the real world, and sign interpretation expresses a general concept that is woven in all the verses of the poem, respectively.
