Description
Summary:Algirdas Julien Greimas, French semanticist, had made a lot of efforts to provide a coherent model for studying the narration. According to him, what is important in recognizing literary text, is not an effective mechanical analysis, but we must look at the process of producing the text up to the transfer and reception of meaning. That is, we should study the discourse systems of the text, which include three types of intelligent, emotional and eventional. In this study, we will examine the process of producing the meaning in the narrative discourse systems based on the model of the study of Greimas by analyzing the semantics of the novel “and if it was true” written by contemporary French novelist Marc Levy, and we are going to answer the question: How action, state and unexpected flows create the discourse of “and if it was true” and create a variety of intelligent, emotional and eventional systems. This novel, due to it’s narrative logic,can be analyzed from the point of view of intelligent, emotional and eventional discourse systems.
