A Study of the Aesthetics of Advance and Delay in the Opening Verse of "Thi Al-Ramah"

Abstract

This study focuses on the analysis and presentation of the poem "Thi Al-Ramah," which is one of the longest poems in Arabic literature. The research revolves around the poet of the poem, Ghilan bin 'Aqabah bin Nuhays bin Mas'ud Al-'Adawi Al-Mudri. The researchers inquire about the poet's interest in this particular poem and the reasons for choosing it for study. The study emphasizes the motivations that led the researcher to select this poem, including the poet's homeland and its influence on his language and poetic style, as well as the poet's status in his era and his impact on Arabic poetry. The poem is analyzed by examining the presentation and delay in its verses and analyzing its context. The study indicates that the Bedouin language used by the poet presents an additional challenge in understanding the poem. The study is divided into an introduction and two sections that discuss the presentation on the subject and the presentation on the object, and specific examples are analyzed within their context. The complete text of the poem is provided as an attachment to the research.
