Abstract

Semantic domain is a field researched in semantics realm. Semantics is a branch of linguistics that studies the meaning of words in languages, while linguistics is the study of spoken and written languages that have systematic, rational, empirical characteristics as a description of the structure and rules of language. One of the categories in this domain is cosmic meaning. Cosmic includes objects that are unreachable by humans such as stars. This notion was found in the poem composed by Hamzah Fansuri entitled “The Word owner”. The purpose of this study is to unveil the cosmic representation in this poem. This study employed ethnographic research method with a semantic analysis and grounded theory approach. It seeks to understand semantic phenomena in terms of the field of meaning that occurs in Hamzah Fansuri's poem. The data in this study was obtained from “Sidang Fakir Empunya Kata” poem composed by Hamzah Fansuri. Arabic vocabulary that has been found is recorded in a table specifically prepared for data collection. In this way the data will be easily re-read when needed. The analysis used is to use Huberman and Miles analysis which includes activities (1) data reduction, (2) data presentation and (3) drawing conclusions. The results showed that the cosmic (universe) representation is the level under being or the space of human perception under being. In Fact, words that contain cosmic categories in the book of Hamzah Fansuri include Uryan and buraq mi’raj.
