اللون الأسود، أشكاله و جمالياته في شعر أبي العلاء المعري : دراسة تحليلية سيكولوجية

Abstract EN

Numerous studies in psychology have appeared in the modern era, which are investigating the significance of color, its importance, and its psychological and aesthetic role in understanding human thoughts and intentions.

Especially when color is used by a genius writer with a delicate sense; at that time, color was not less important than words, musical structure, and style, and it was considered one of the most important ways to reveal the intentions and purposes of the text.

As for when the blind poet uses color in his poetry, this employment has another wit and great importance, because despite his blindness he uses color with his perception and mind, so color is more important and connected to his mental perceptions and the most important way to understand his idea and style.

Of these colors, black is the color that the blind see the world with and is more important and frequent in blind poetry.

One of the prominent Arab poets who has a great genius in Arabic poetry is Abu Al-Alaa Al-Maari.

He is, despite his lack of eyesight, the understanding of matters and affairs, and an understanding of the major humanitarian issues in a profound and fundamental way.

So, I have no doubt that he uses colors in their subtleties and important connotations in his poetry, especially the black color that the poet has dealt with repeatedly throughout his life.

So this study, given the importance of employing color in Maari poetry, especially the importance of black and its leading connotations, envisages to study the aesthetics and functions of this color in his poetry collection through the descriptive-analytical approach.

The result concluded that the poet used this color in different forms, such as crow, eye, zinj, etc.

, and displayed negative and positive binary aesthetics on it.
