The Starling Letters, a semiotic study
Abstract
Starlings constitute a beautiful, comic type of literature, but it is a purposeful type that was known in Andalusian prose in the sixth century AH. The basis of this art is a group of messages revolving around the starling and the various suggestions that its characteristics evoke.It was a starting point for building creative texts carrying fertile connotations. These connotations expanded in their flexible language to modern semiotic readings that were able to identify the signs, icons, and various relationships they contained, which had their own signs.
Studying starlings from a semiotic perspective reveals the hidden content behind the sarcastic tone and humorous expressions. The implication behind this sarcastic and humorous narrative style crystallizes; Because starlings reveal mental activity that was born out of a cultural context that has a specific point of view, and is based on implicit patterns that semiotic tools explore accurately and aesthetically.
The field of starlings is wide; As it was a field of semiotic space that was linked to the contemporary structural linguistic model, according to a Peircean vision, we were faced with the creativity of language and its superiority in openness to everything new.
