這篇文章將以符號學的角度來分析Umberto Eco的第一本小說－玫瑰的名字。身爲一位符號學教授，Umberto Eco在書中精巧地運用了各式的符號技巧，描述一連串發生在十四世紀北義大利教堂中的謀殺案。本文將針對指涉謬誤這種技巧，在小說中扮演的角色做分析。分別指出指涉謬誤如何引導出小說中的第二個故事（見註一），如何誤導小說中的角色，以及如何誤導小說中的偵探。

In this paper, Umberto Eco's first novel The Name of the Rose is investigated through a semiotic point of view. As a professor of Semiotics, Eco subtly applies a variety of semiotic tactics in his novel and weaves a tale of mystery and suspense. The investigation is focused on the function of referential fallacy in the novel-how it leading out the story, how it misleading the characters and how it misleading the detective.
