Abstract
Heterogeneous Behavioral Activity Activists with the Situation of "Self and Other" in Surah Youssef
Semiotics studies with different approaches, including up-to-date knowledge in the contemporary world. Cultural semiotics is one of the most important approaches to this science. Yuri Lutman is one of the founders of cultural semiotics who has developed the "self and other" paradigm. According to this model, whatever is not "insider" is inevitably "other" and vice versa! Today, utilizing up-to-date knowledge is an important way of analyzing religious texts. Analyzing the stories of the Qur'an using this model helps to better understand the text. The story of Yusuf (as) in the Qur'an is one of the most important Qur'anic stories. This study attempts to analyze the behavior of different actors in this story based on the "self and other" model based on the descriptive-analytical method and show that it is possible that the behavior of the actors is not in accordance with their sign position. . In other words, for one reason or another, an "insider" may behave in a manner proportionate to the "other" and vice versa. In this regard, the interactions between Yusuf and his brothers, Yusuf with his beloved Egypt and his wife, as well as Yusuf's interaction with the prisoners, as well as with Jacob and his children are examined
