The Narrative Structure and its Relationship in Constituting the Poetic Vision of Al-A'sha (Gaffyiah and Lamiyyah) as a Model

Abstract

Objectives: The research aims to analyze the elements of the narrative structure in the poems of Al-Asha, namely Gaffyiah and Lamiyyah. It aims to study art painting, as an aesthetic stylistic phenomenon, through which the anecdotal narrative structure is formed. It also aims to reveal the connotations of this structure and its role in achieving (organic text unity) and shaping the poet's vision.

Methods: The study relied on analyzing the elements of the narrative structure in the two poems of Al-Asha (Gaffyiah and Lamiyyah), revealing its aesthetics, and linking its symbolic connotation with the parts of the poem; to prove the poet's vision.

Results: The research concluded that the narrative structure in the poems consists of the elements of the artistic story: event, characters, setting, dialogue, plot, and solution. The study also concluded that the poet relies on two stylistic techniques in constituting the art painting, namely the rhetorical technique (representative analogy) and a narrative-story technique. The analysis found profound moral implications in the narrative structure, representing the poet's psychological struggle in the first poem, and serving as an objective portrayal of the poet's journey toward a new life in the second poem. Establishing connections between the narrative structures and poem components contributed to developing and conveying the text's overarching idea.

Conclusions: The research concluded that the narrative structure represented an advanced stylistic and aesthetic phenomenon for Al-Asha. He creates a growing graphic scene, encompassing elements of the story. It can also represent an effective new reading of the poem.
