ABSTRACT Azzahra, Qonita. 2018. "Meaning of the Matsu Symbol (マツ) in the Anthology of Haiku Issa And Being Human Semiotics Study". Thesis S1 Japanese Language and Culture Program, Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Diponegoro University. Supervisor Nur Hastuti, S.S., M.Hum. This study examines the meaning of the pine symbol found in Kobayashi Issa's haiku and the relation between the pine symbol and the background of Issa's life. The author will analyze five haiku which contain pine symbols, from the anthology of Issa And Being Human Haiku (Lanoue in 2017). This study aims to find the meaning of pine symbols and how they relate to the background of the life of Kobayashi Issa. The method used in this study is literature study. Whereas to analyze the meaning of the pine symbol found in haiku, uses the semiotic theory of C.S. Peirce. After knowing the true meaning of the pine symbol, the author then relates it to the background of the life of Kobayashi Issa. This way is to find out if there is a connection between the pine symbols and the background of the life of Kobayashi Issa. From the analysis, it is known that the symbol of pine could mean strength, fortitude, kindness, longevity, and a bright future / luck. While the relationship between the pine symbol and the background of the life of Kobayashi Issa is as a description of the properties that Issa has or wants. Living side by side with pine trees makes Issa very understanding of the true characters of pine. That is why he put a lot of pine symbols into his haiku to describe his own nature. Keywords: semiotics, Kobayashi Issa, symbol of pine, Issa's life
