Abstract

This study seeks to monitor the semiotic structure and describe it in the poem "Children of Shatila" by the Palestinian poet Ahmed Al-Rimawi, in two axes: the horizontal axis, in the phonetic, structural, lexical and semantic levels. The vertical axis touched on the three structures: similarity, contradiction, conflict or tension. We concluded that the poem has a deep structure embodied in the sounds that make the children of Shatila confront the negative enemy of life and spatial existence, leading to the heroism they achieved for man and place. Thus, the poem embodied the pain of the entire Palestinian people, but the new reality changes the equation, and there becomes a dialectical situation between the past and the present, existence and nothingness, space and no-place, and thus the poet communicates his conscious intention full of hope and renewal.
