Diagnostic Frameworks in Arabic Poetry

Abstract

Poets have relied in poetry on metaphorical performance, the effectiveness of which begins with groups of semantic transformations. Rhetoricians often begin metaphor analysis by discussing diagnosis, as it represents the two sides of the basic transformation. It is an advanced stage and an important means of drawing the metaphorical image to discover the poet's inner world and explore his unknown worlds, and his inner feelings with what he possesses of symbolic and psychological rules. The concept of personification overlaps with the concept of metaphorical performance through a set of rhetorical analyses by highlighting the similar graphic relation between these analyses. Metaphorical performance aims to convey the information, knowledge and experiences to the recipient by a productive diagnostic structure within the framework of a successive graphic and rhetorical structure of interconnected images. Thus, every metaphorical performance has its diagnostic units and its harmony in a specific rhetorical context constitutes a rhetorical transformation, whether in poetry or prose. The reader of a metaphorical text becomes a party to the diagnostic text, as the diagnosis is represented in the unnatural language relations, and this matter makes us consider the metaphorical text an achievement of a rhetorical system and a material embodiment of it.
