صورة الحصان بين امرئ القيس و عنترة بن شداد

الملخص EN

This paper aims at studying the image of the horse between two poets: Imru Al-Qais and Antara bin Shaddad to introduce the aspects that distinguished each other, based on descriptive and analytical approaches.

It studied the horse, its importance and position in all aspects of Arab life and discovered the selflessness on other animals and having more favor and affection than family members.

The paper also discussed the poetic image and its correlation with the linguistic expression in the poetry that it has not abandoned because it is its essence, the measure of poetics, and the standard of differentiation between poets for giving them their degrees that they deserve.

In addition, the paper discussed the image of the horse in Imru Al-Qais, and despite his distinction in that, his description focused on the external aesthetic aspects without penetrating the horse's interior, soul, communication, and emotional attachment to it.

As for Antara bin Shaddad, in addition to his interest in drawing an ideal external image for his horse, he did not stop at this point, but he penetrated to his depths, read his emotions, sensed his feelings, sensed his feelings and made him a friendly person who shares the credit for him in every victory that has been achieved.

Hence, Antara surpassed Imru Al-Qais in this section, even though Imru Al-Qais was the head start in many things that Arabs innovated and favored for him and the poets followed, including Antara.
