A significant segment of literary theory that is known as
semiotics or semiology in cultural criticism, foregrounds
linguistic relations between the poetics of literary texts and
cultural contexts. To construct a theme in a poem, these
linguistic relationships function systematically in the poetic
text. The text, itself, ensures the choices and chains of those
linguistic units that constitute an organic coherence of a poem.
These linguistic units, according to Semiotics, are the cultural
units which communicate through a system. The serious
concern with semiotics, in contemporary literary theory, is the
reflection of the structuralist truth that a criticism of any
literary text, without incorporating its linguistic and cultural
study, results into overgeneralization in understanding,
explanation and interpretation of the text. A word, in semiotic
study, is not only considered as a structural unit, but also a
unit of cultural expression which plays a key role in the
grammar of textual and socio-cultural relations. Since
Semiotic study also includes structuralist and narratological
studies, the following critical research presents socio-cultural
dynamics of the narrative texts of a modern poem.
