Abstract
God Almighty has used various methods to guide mankind. One of these methods is to tell the story of the prophets in the form of Qur'anic stories. The story of Prophet Adam (P) is one of the short stories in the Qur'an that God has beautifully and eloquently portrayed in various surahs. The semiotics of discourse is a directional process in which the signs have a special position according to their existence. This makes the signs emotional, cultural and sensory-perceptual, and finally the collection of these elements in the space of discourse provides the process of meaning transfer. In this article, using the sign-semantics approach, we have analyzed and applied the emotional dimension in the sign systems of the verses related to the story of Adam (AS). The present paper seeks to examine how the process of emotional discourse is formed from the point of view of semantic sign with a descriptive-analytical method. The aim of this study is to receive meaning at different levels of emotional discourse and the interaction between sensory-perceptual and emotional dimensions. as a result; Semantic-semantic analysis of the emotional discourse of the verses of the story of Prophet Adam (P) shows that the most important emotional mechanisms that can be seen in the signs of this story are effective actions, melody and appearance, emotional scenes or emotional staging and activation. The interaction between the effective verbs in the discourse of this story provides the way to create an emotional atmosphere or produce an emotional burden. As a result, we see the formation of an emotional atmosphere of sorrow, regret, rebellion and seduction. Also, the musical beating that we encounter in this discourse creates a feeling of heaviness and sorrow in the conscious body, and as a result, it is this feeling that creates the emotional atmosphere of sorrow that dominates the discourse.
