الضرورة الشعرية بين النحو و البراغماتية المقامية

Abstract EN

The poetic Necessity is the unconventional use of the standard Arabic language, which is marked in the poetry of the whole old generation of poets and in most of the modem ones.

This Unconventional Language has been a controversial issue among the specialists of language, syntax, rhetoric, and criticism.

Some linguists refer to it as a poetic necessity required achieving sound rhyme and rhythm; others are able to find an outlet in the syntax of the language.

On the other hand, such necessity is accounted by some linguists as a mere source of linguistic weakness, defect, and confusion noticed on some rare occasional instances and therefore cannot be standardized.

All through the linguistic history, the poetic necessity has been a thorny subject of conflicting views seeking justification and reasons of its existence; nevertheless, there has been no satisfactory outcome to define and analyze the concept so far.

Hence, this study attempts to establish a patterned methodology to cope with the poetic necessity in the light of modern linguistics.

The research demonstrates that the poetic necessity means the use of “Particular/Unusual Meanings” formed in new linguistic forms that have clear reference in the language.

They are employed by the poet as imperative and expressive means for his thought, senses and emotions with a view to accomplishing unexpected constructs able to create an unexpected response by the readership.
