Abstract AR
أفرزت الحرب على العراق عام 2003 الكثير من الجدل و النقاش فضلا عن الكتابات الشعرية.
إذ حاول الشعراء الإسهام عير قصائدهم التأكيد موقفهم الرافض أو الداعم للإستراتجيات العسكرية التي غالبا ما يتبناها الغرب.
فيما يخص النوع الأول، فقد ظهرت العديد من المجموعات الشعرية و أنشأت الكثير مواقع الانترنت التي نشرت و لا تزال تنشر ذلك الكم الكبير من القصائد التي أوضحت موقف شعرائها الرافض للحرب و الداعم للسلام.
يركز البحث الحالي على دراسة هذا النوع من شعر الحرب و الذي أسهم به الشعراء الأمريكيون ديفيد سمث فيري و تشارلز بيرنستاين و ديفيد سيلك.
Abstract EN
The 2003 war in Iraq has generated a great deal of controversy, debate, as well as literature and more specifically poetry.
Ever since, poets have continued to contribute poetry that made clear their refusal and objection to military strategies or even support and encouragement of war practices.
In the case of the 2003 American war in Iraq, the pro-war is highly subordinated to the anti-war poem.
Books were published before and after the war broke and websites team with poems contributed by thousands of conscientious objecting poets all over the world.
This study concentrates on the anti-war poetry contributed namely by American poets.
The selection of poems display viewpoints that are unanimously hostile to the war but various in the methods and strategies these anti-war views are poised.
Poems by David Ferri-Smith but also by David Siluk, Charles Bernstein, and others are tackled in the current study.
