الصور الحربية في غزليات الشاعر ابن مطروح (ت 649 ه)‎ : دراسة دلالية

Abstract EN

Love poetry or (ghazal) is a wide domain in Arabic poetry in general and Abbasid poetry in particular.

Love context depended on employing animated and silent nature as a way towards metaphor and onomatopoeia.

Poets compared women's eyes to wild deer’s eyes while her height is compared to a slender bough.

Her colour is compared to sun, moon, and full moon.

What is attracted our attention is that the poet Ibn Matruh, in most of his poetry, violated this tradition and employed the war tools to describe the women’s beauty.

This innovative way has created a stylistic method of this poet, which became worthy to be studied.

He depended on the whiteness of the sword to describe woman’s colour, her height is compared to the spear, and her eyes sharpness to arrow sharpness
