Evolutionary Visual-Verbal Relationship in the Concrete Poem of "The Train Moved Again"

The existing studies have often examined concrete poems in terms of the relationship between verbal text and image or with respect to de-familiarization. This article assessed the evolution of the phenomenological and discursive semiospheres in a concrete poem entitled "The Train Moved Again" by Afshin Shahroudi. In the text, the relationship between verbal text and image was not fixed but "spectral". Due to the process of content level, this relationship showed a continuum in the form of discontinuity -balance-fusion at the level of expression. Sign levels also transform from an index to an icon and then to a symbol. The results showed that at the phenomenological level, the Enunciator tried to use the prelinguistic capacities of the verbal phonemes to motivate the discourse. The Enunciator attempted to influence the Enunciate through his sensory system. By responding to the enunciator's invitation by the enunciate, a discursive atmosphere was formed. It was a reciprocal movement and created the process. The phenomenal space of the text required the re-segmentation of the verbal and visual layers in another process. In the re-segmentation, an "evolutionary metaphor" was identified, according to which the relationship between verbal text and image was not fixed but "spectral" and a discontinuity-balance-fusion relationship was established.
