الرمز في شعر سامي مهدي : قراءة في مجموعة (بريد القارات)‎

Abstract EN

Symbolis considered as a mean of referring with emotion through psychological raising not through naming and declaring.

It is considered one of the most famous poetry forms and techniques in Modern Arabic poetry.

The poet intends using the word or phrase to refer to another thing, the symbol is contrasted with metaphor and comparison, lacking to similar and may be described as a kind of mask blinding these ideas.

So the symbolis always a mean to transporting emotions and rare complex conscious cases, and not as a mean of describing an ideology, because ideology has its fixed symbols to express any style of idea.

Man cannot accept that the symbol is calling just by emotions, because each nation's literature has its traditional symbols In Arabic there are Sword, Crescent.

All these symbols bears meanings that all knew but the symbolic poet has his special way in building his symbols .The symbol is a kind of trying to pass the reality that can not talk about in a direct way for different reasons to reflect the reality in a way of expressing.
