The goal of the poets Lafontaine and Shawki to
employ ridicule and humor in their tales on the tongue of animals,
is to create moral values related to the spirit of the times and events,
and provide the sermon and the lesson resulting from experience
and depth of suffering, and enjoy the reader and entertain himself.
The research refers to the artistic and stylistic features of the story of the animal Lafontaine's poetry, which is the multiplicity of sources and diversity of stories, spirit of humor, the varied rhythm of music, the story and its relation to social
criticism.
This study attempts to investigate the tale of (Tawaddod, the
Maid), one of the tales of Thousand and One Nights. It is an educational
tale that is different in style from the tales of the entire collection, such an
educational ballad and a variety of knowledge embedded in a book of
poetry of a good quality. The study is twofold: the historic part that
highlights the tales of Thousand and One Nights, as of the name, history
and origin, the views of Arab historians and orientalists, and the impact
of the Persian, Greek and Arabic on these tales. The second one is the
applied part that introduces Tawaddod, the maid, as a model. The
researcher presents a summary of the tale, its history, objectives, narrative
structure, language, and technical means used in it.
This research studies an important aspect in the poetry of Yahya Bin
Alhakam Alghazal, one of the most brilliant poets in the Andalusia
literature.
This research discusses:
- Subjects of the tale in the poetry of Alghazal.
- The main artistic el
ements in his poetry.
The subjects in the tale revolve about the poet's experience and his
own life and the things in his community.
The tale in his poetry depends on dialogue, simple action, satire, and
folk language.
This poetic tale found approval from all the people in its own time
because it depends on simplicity and discusses daily problems like
bribery, justice and hypocrisy
These cases are very important that Alghazal had studied in his
poems.
