Poet Dhu'l-Rumah and his Diiwan

In this study, we will shed light on our poet Dhul Rumah in order to introduce him and his diwan; to be useful for those who do not know him, and to be necessary for those who know him, but it is likely that the latter will benefit from other aspects of the study, even in a small amount, in terms of introducing his life, qualities, personality, and his story with his two lovers: Mayyah and Khar’qaa, and how he died Then the study will shed light on his diwan and its place among the Arabic poetry books. The study posits questions, including: Who is the poet Dhul-Rumah? Where did his class fall among the classes of Umayyad poets? What poetic purposes did the poet explore most? What is the status of his collection of poems? The problem of the study lies in the lack of publications that described the personality of this great poet and his collections. The study attempted to adopt a descriptive, inductive approach in monitoring its information.

Полигенетическая природа поэтики К.Д. Бальмонта и культурные традиции древнего Китая

The article discusses the polygenetic nature of K.D. Balmont's poetics on the basis of underinvestigated materials related to ancient Chinese cultural traditions by using the principles of comparative studies, historical poetics, hermeneutics and the mythopoetic method. The object of the analysis is the “Chinese” cycle, consisting of five sonnets included in Balmont's collection of poems “Sonnets of the Sun, Honey and Moon. Song of the Worlds” (1917). Special attention is paid to the analysis of the mythological images, motives and plots in these poems, identifying their sources and revealing the poet's creative intention. It is taken into account that S.M. Georgievsky's book “Mythical beliefs and myths of the Chinese” (1892) had a significant influence on Balmont's perception of Chinese mythology and it is an important basis for the creation of these sonnets. It is claimed that the source of this cycle is the Chinese treatise “Huainan Tzu” (Philosophers from Huainan, no later than 139 BC), which is essentially a Taoist philosophical work. It is noted that Balmont's reference to “Huainan Tzu” testifies to his continuing attention to Taoism, which turned out to be one of the main sources of the poet's spiritual exploration. The theme of the Eternal Femininity in this cycle is considered as a point of contact between the Silver Age culture and ancient Chinese culture, primarily Solovyov's doctrine of Sophia and Lao Tzu's philosophy. It is concluded that, firstly, Balmont's sonnets can be perceived not only as an attempt to stylize ancient Chinese myths, as researchers often assume, but also as a phenomenon indicating the transformation of the semantics of the myth created by the poet and its deepening on the basis of mythological traditions of ancient China. Secondly, the use of common motifs in Eastern and European mythology and the combination of Chinese mythology with the European poetic form reflects the polygenetic nature of Balmont's poetics and the contamination of traditions.

Фольклорная символика рассказа И. Бунина «Ворон»

The article is devoted to a poetical analysis of Ivan Bunin’s short story “The Raven” (1944), which is a part of the cycle of short stories about love “Dark Alleys”. The research is undertaken in order to comprehend the role of folklore in the formation of the poetic world of Bunin’s love story, to identify the emotional and aesthetic perspectives of the images, motifs, and the central conflict of the short story, which is contextually conditioned and mediated by folklore symbols. The research is novel in that it is the first to analyze in detail the short story “The Raven”, its character system (images of the father, the son, the daughter, Elena Nikolaevna) and to identify the most important folklore components of the central conflict of the story (a love conflict). As a result, it is shown that the active involvement of folklore symbols (the folklorized concept “The Raven”, a color palette of folklore), which were close and understandable to the Parisian community of Russian emigrants, allowed Bunin (who adhered to national traditions, including folklore ones) to bring additional poetic intentions into the text of the shott story, imbued with imagery familiar from childhood and bright fairy-tale emotionality, to bring the perception of the text created in exile closer to the nostalgic memory of the abandoned homeland of Russia.

El catecismo patriótico de Emiliano R. Fernández como invocación política en el Paraguay de posguerra (1936–1937)

Among the variety of verses written by the popular Paraguayan poet, Emiliano R. Fernández, there is a patriotic catechism in support of the presidency of Colonel Rafael Franco. This catechism was a political invocation that did not have a significant impact on the population, as its publication in any written media of the time is unknown. However, it constitutes an interesting document for understanding the political vision of a bard who was distant from circles of power, proposing civic virtues in a post-war, revolutionary, and nationalist context. This article seeks to understand the influence of Colonel Franco's government on the catechism of Emiliano R. Fernández for post-war Paraguayan society as a model of social coexistence. Additionally, it aims to understand the poet's intention in writing the catechism. To this end, its content is analyzed by comparing it with the new government's discourse and the measures adopted. This catechism was the only written political support from the poet towards this president, so it is argued that its purpose was the product of a circumstantial effort to support a government whose discourse aligned with the political ideal he himself idealized.

How People With a Bipolar Disorder Diagnosis Talk About Personal Recovery in Peer Online Support Forums: Corpus Framework Analysis Using the POETIC Framework.

Personal recovery is of particular value in bipolar disorder, where symptoms often persist despite treatment. We previously defined the POETIC (Purpose and Meaning, Optimism and Hope, Empowerment, Tensions, Identity, Connectedness) framework for personal recovery in bipolar disorder. So far, personal recovery has only been studied in researcher-constructed environments (eg, interviews and focus groups). Support forum posts can serve as a complementary naturalistic data resource to understand the lived experience of personal recovery. This study aimed to answer the question "What can online support forum posts reveal about the experience of personal recovery in bipolar disorder in relation to the POETIC framework?" By integrating natural language processing, corpus linguistics, and health research methods, this study analyzed public, bipolar disorder support forum posts relevant to the lived experience of personal recovery. By comparing 4462 personal recovery-relevant posts by 1982 users to 25,197 posts not relevant to personal recovery, we identified 130 significantly overused key lemmas. Key lemmas were coded according to the POETIC framework. Personal recovery-related discussions primarily focused on 3 domains: "Purpose and meaning" (particularly reproductive decisions and work), "Connectedness" (romantic relationships and social support), and "Empowerment" (self-management and personal responsibility). This study confirmed the validity of the POETIC framework to capture personal recovery experiences shared on the web and highlighted new aspects beyond previous studies using interviews and focus groups. This study is the first to analyze naturalistic data on personal recovery in bipolar disorder. By indicating the key areas that people focus on in personal recovery when posting freely and the language they use, this study provides helpful starting points for formal and informal carers to understand the concerns of people diagnosed with a bipolar disorder and to consider how to best offer support.

Take a Chance on Me: Aleatory Poetry, Generative AI, and the External Demarcation Problem

Abstract What is it in virtue of which any poetic output will be included or excluded from the category of art? I will first identify the external demarcation problem, which is concerned with whether or how the cut-off is made between art and non-art. I will then adopt a nonclassical approach to conceptual analysis by relying on a set of examples of poetry generated by aleatory processes to evaluate an intention-based response to the external demarcation problem. I will argue in favor of an intention-based response that is grounded in hypothetical intentionalism. According to this response, a contextually informed audience will form a hypothesis about poetic intentions on the basis of the evidence that a work makes publicly available. Semantic, categorial, and ostensive intention and intention traces may help this audience to determine whether a work counts as art and is worth effortful interpretation. My proposed version of an intention-based response to the external demarcation problem will be based on the p-valued hypothesis-testing approach in science and will be highly relevant to a context of production in which we find human poets, poetry-generating AI systems, and human-AI interfaces.

The Sources of the Image in the Poetry of Ibn Hani Al-Andalusi

Objectives: This research aims to study the sources of the artistic image in the poetry of Ibn Hani Al-Andalusi, such as its influence on the Holy Quran, as well as its reliance on human, natural, and cultural source to construct its artistic images.
 Methods: The nature of the study, in its various parts, necessitated following a descriptive analytical approach, enabling the revelation of aesthetic and artistic aspects in the poetry of Ibn Hani Al-Andalusi.
 Results: The researcher discovered that Ibn Hani Al-Andalusi relied on various sources to construct imagery in his poetry. These sources were evident and apparent in his poetic images. He expressed praise for the Fatimid caliphs and their rulers, and drew from elements of nature as sources in his descriptive poetry, alongside human and cultural sources.
 Conclusions: The study concludes that Ibn Hani Al-Andalusi successfully utilized a variety of sources that aligned with his poetic purpose and semantic goals. By diversifying these sources within his poetic images, the poet was able to express his different intentions effectively.

Description of the Prophet (PBUH) in the Poems of Mahwi

The research is entitled “Description of the Prophet (PBUH) in the poems of Mahwi”, which discusses "description" as a very broad poetic purpose, how it crept into Mahwi's poetic texts. In the holy religion of Islam, the problem of this research is to present the subject of description and reflection in the poetic text of poets and discuss the types of description in Mahwi, especially religious description and description of the Prophet (PBUH). The research is conducted according to the descriptive analytical method. The research practice relies on Mahwi's poetic texts. This research consists of two main parts: introduction, conclusions and list of sources.

بَنُو عَشَرَة السَّلَاویین فِی شِعْرِ مُعَاصِرِیْهِم دِرَاسَةٌ تَحْلِیلِیَّةٌ

This research singled out the study of a Moroccan family, the Banu Ashra who lived in the fifth and early sixth centuries in Sale in Morocco, under the Almoravid state. And it was confined to one of its houses, which is the house of Ali bin Al-Qasim, so this study aimed to track all that was said about the head of this family, Ali bin Al-Qasim, and his sons Ahmed, Al-Hassan, Yahya and Youssef, from poetry and an analytical study that highlights the status of the literary family in that time period. This is done by collecting the poetry that was said about them, and classifying it according to the poetic purposes for which it was organized

ЛІНГВОПОЕТИЧНИ ЙАНАЛІЗ ЛАТИНСЬКОМОВНОГО ПАНЕГІРИКА "ITER LAUREATUM"

This paper presents the linguopoetic analysis of the Latin panegyric "Iter Laureatum" by Hryhorii Vyshnovskyi, dedicated to Josaf Krokovskyi, the former rector of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy. The panegyric is analyzed within the historical and cultural context of that time. The purpose of this study is to give the idea of the structure, poetic means and individual author's performance of the genre in Latin language. The relationship between Ukrainian baroque poetry and antiquity is defined in precedent texts. Precedent texts actualize well-known cultural phenomena, thereby creating the effect of recognition. It is proved that the transfer of the narrative to the mythological plane creates the effect of historicity and legendary nature of the event or personality, which benefits panegyric pathos. The article focuses on lexical poetic means (analysis of poetic interpretation of mythological names) and stylistic means (the amplification, anaphor, use of metaphors and comparisons). The mythological names are classified according to the main thematic groups: geographic names, representing the ancient and medieval realities (Regna Mauri, Regna Lydiae, regna Arabum, Canopus, Thracia, Rhodopa, Troja), personal names of mythological characters (Apollo, Melpomene, Polyhymnia, Thalia, Siren, Echo, Hercules), words of musical art (chorda, carmen, lyra, chorus, nablium), martial arts (Mars, Scipio, trophaeum). The following metaphors were defined for description of patron's dignity: "majorum decus"; "pater Rossiadum"; "patronus pupillae sortis"; "victor cordis"; "princeps pectoris". We direct attention to the realization of author's narrative strategy of the will-expression, which is to exalt the patron's generosity and express the affection and loyalty towards him. It is discussed the poet's intention to cross the time barriers and transfer the mythological realities to the Ukrainian ground (Borysthenes, Siren Kioviensis).

الأسلوب في ديوان "ثمرات الحب في مدح نجل القطب" لبشير بِيْرَيْ: دراسة تحليلية

Eulogy is one of the most important poetic purposes dealt with by Arab poets in their poems, because it is concerned with explaining the moral and ethical aspects of the addressee, as Eulogy inspires in people the spirit of love tolerance and humility among themselves, and these attributes called the attention of the Sheikhs of the Sufi orders, as they showed the morals of the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grand him peace) they also showed the compliance of his Companions and the entire Muslim Ummah to it. That is why Nigerian poets have a great role in emulating this art in their poems, they also have a role in the Eulogy of their Sheikhs in the Sufi orders, which includes the collection of "ThamaratulHubbi fi Madh NajlilQutb" by Bashir Birai, in which the articled aims to analyze the characteristics of the vocabulary and structures used in it.

Navigating Sacred Languages: Paraphrasing the Psalms in Renaissance Scotland

Translations and paraphrases of the Biblical psalms were popular throughout early modern Europe. The Latin poetic paraphrase of Psalm 51 by George Buchanan is examined alongside the Scots-language translation of Psalm 2 by Alexander Montgomerie to illustrate some of the complexities of the Renaissance interplay between Latin and vernacular translation, poetics, confession, and politics. Both poets engage with contemporary debates over the meaning of the Biblical texts, and both display a high degree of poetic and rhetorical sophistication in transforming the psalms according to their own interpretative commitments. Each demonstrates close attention towards and care for correct interpretation, and each shows a high degree of freedom in adapting and recreating the polysemous meanings of the original while also applying new meanings to serve their own liturgical, spiritual, and poetic purposes.

Camilla's myrtle and Roman Ovations

AbstractOne of the perplexing aspects of the depiction of Virgil's Volscian heroine Camilla is her association with the myrtle. Close study of evidence from Aulus Gellius as well as passages from Virgil's epic will reveal the poet's intention to recall the Roman tradition of an ovation in his presentation of Camilla's entry to war.

Alisher Navoiyning lirik asarlarida takrirlarning sintaktik-semantik xususiyatlari

Syntactic repetition is one of the language units that make up the syntactic structure of the text of poetry of Alisher Navai's works. Such devices are not exist in modern Uzbek language (in poetry). Therefore, it is very important to study and know the role, function of their classical lyric art. The syntactic units are specially entered in the structure of the text of poetry by the poet and subjected to his own poetic purposes, so it does not seem as an extra line in composition of the poetic text. The study of such unusual devices used in lyrical works of Alisher Navai – the study of syntactic repetitions in terms of diachronic perspective allows them to scientifically justify their specific aspects and make certain conclusions.

허수경의 시와 산문에 내포된 고아성과 연대성 연구

This study would understand the meaning of orphanhood by analyzing how the poetic self’s self-recognition is defined in Heo Soo-Kyung’s poems, using Richard Rorty’s concept of liberal ironist, reveal the poetic intention implied in the representation of others, the subjects of solidarity and their voice of testimony and examine the complex characteristic and taste of her poetry through the gap and intersection point between these two axes. A liberal ironist refers to a person who would come up with new metaphors for self-creation, pays attention to others’ pain and seeks the possibility of solidarity through redescription. This study extracted ‘self-creation,’ ‘metaphor,’ ‘pain and humiliation,’ ‘imagination,’ and ‘redescription (oblivion and memory)’ as keywords that put Rorty’s discussions and Heo Soo-Kyung’s works together and utilized them as the tools to read Heo Soo-Kyung’s world of poetry. For Heo Soo-Kyung, existential and poetic ethicality lie at the point where her image as an ironist who would express her inner world through a new metaphor and her image as a liberalist who gazes at and internalizes pain and humiliation cross. In other words, it is judged that her responsibility as a poet that she should remember and redescribe others’ situations and painful emotions with her poetic imagination and metaphor led to the solid construction of Heo Soo-Kyung’s world of poetry.

POETRY IN THE SEVENTH CENTURY AH

This research comes to deny the saying that Arabic poetry in the seventh century AH had weakened or apathy, especially since this time period was fraught with serious political events that led to the fall of the Abbasid state, and to accompany this fall was many dangers on the aspects of social, political and literary life in the Arab world. Thus, we find that there is a revival for many poetic purposes, including asceticism, mysticism, describing nature in cities and others, in addition to this, prominent poets appeared in this regard, including Al-Busairi, Ibn Al-Farid, Shams Din Al-Kufi and others who enriched the literary life in their collections and the hunt for their poetry.

Matching Rhyme With Poetic Purposes In Hamid Mizal Al-Rawi's Poetry

The research deals with the relationship of proportionality between rhyme and poetic purposes. We shed light on the texts of our poet Hamid Al-Rawi, as we found there is a clear and explicit proportionality in the poet’s texts. We try to reveal this relationship; As he uses a thousand absolutes in rhymes with poetic purposes from which complaint and pain appear, he also uses broken rhyme in cases of lament and refraction. We find the poet also try to emphasize the main title of the poem and include it or some of it in his poetic texts.

Серийность как принцип наррации в современной прозе (С. Носов, А. Сальников, В. Пелевин)

This paper examines the narrative aspects of the category of seriality based on the novels of contemporary Russian writers. It is stated that, in contemporary literary criticism, the concept of seriality is used to characterize two different trends. The first is a designation of the desire for a repetition of intrigue and characters in works of popular literature. The second is a fundamental feature of the poetics of the avant-garde and postmodernist texts manifested in several ways (fragmentation, stringing of the same type of episodes, or deconstruction of a linear sequence of events). The analysis has proved that this serial structure of narration actualizes the neocumulative intrigue, aiming not to depict a static “imaginary” world or a catastrophic resolution of the initial situation (which is typical for the traditional cumulative plot model) but to multiply a paradigmatic event. This type of repetition indicates a provocation strategy that activates the consciousness of the addressee. Nosov’s novel “The Curly Brackets” uses the potential of the cumulative stringing of episodes corresponding to the occasionalistic artistic worldview and the occupation of the characters (who are magicians). Salnikov’s novels feature the interaction of series of diegetic events with events conditioned by the imagination of the focalizers (“Petrovs’ Flu”) or by the poetic intention of inserted texts (“Indirectly”). In Pelevin’s serial universe, the “self-closure” of the narrated events is never complete: their depiction involves a polyphonic system of interpretations with which to discover the semantic lacunae.
