قصيدة الشيخوخة لأبي الحجاج يوسف بن محمد البلوي: دراسة بنيوية فنية

الملخص EN

The personality of the poet Abu al-Hajjaj Yusuf bin Muhammad al-Balwi al-Maliki has remained obscure and marginalized, as it has not received its needed share of academic studies that reveal the secrets of many figures and poets and the mystery that surrounded their lives.

the present paper thus attempts to unveil this personality by analyzing the best poems in his poetic collection, which can reveal an important aspect of the poet’s life.

accordingly, the researcher used a combination of both structural and artistic approaches, which may help in this type of study.

the structural approach allowed the researcher to delve into the basic organizational units of the literary work and to show their relationship to the poet’s beliefs and identity.

however, the artistic approach helped the researcher to find out the cultural components of the poet’s work, his artistic and musical choices, and to link all of that to the general texture of the poem and the poet’s psychological state.

therefore, the researcher identified the intentions and the motives behind the poet’s choices of those structures and features, and how they serve the purpose of the poem.
