Al sayab has been a distinguished phenomenon in modern Arabic literature, and
it has been illustrated in many ways, however, the most affective one is the power of his
creative poetry and its incredible sensitivity.
However, this thesis discusses
the semantic creativity that creates the metaphors in
the "Anthem of the rain' revealing the muse fighting with words in the battle of existence.
The analysis has created a portrait to an inner conflict of a soul seeking salvation
with a vision of loyalty to art and life, done by the poet. Sometimes , she suffers injustice ,
slavery and harsh reality that restricted the human , and at the same time ,she is the
revolutionary and ambitious one to create an alternative world of freedom , justice and
brotherhood .
This research is based on the study of metaphor and its impact in Arabic language,
and we have begun our work identifying the concept of metaphor linguistically and
idiomatically, then we indicated its multiple divisions that we have found mentally
, and
linguistically divided into metaphor, and expedite metaphor, then we moved to talk about
its impact on the language, which manifests itself into two types: direct rhetorical, and
indirect linguistic as a factor of linguistic expansion through its contribution to the
formation of semantic relations, in addition to its role in the semantic evolution of the
language words and their meanings to cope with the requirements and developments of
life, by addressing some examples on the base of mentioning but not limitation, and we
studied some words analytically showing the effect of metaphor on their development, and
how we currently use them, then comes the findings of the research.
The research deals with the aesthetics of the artistic image in the
prose text of the Umayyad period and how did it add more poetry to
prose;
This is because of the large number of images analogous and
metaphorical and canonical.
This research tackled the attitude of interpretation towards the issue of metaphor,
especially the French philosopher's view Paul Ricuor. It also dealt with the nature of
metaphor as suggested by him via critiquing the attitude in which he finds a
mere aesthetic
and substitutive ornament from the one hand, while taking it as innovative means to touch
reality on the other hand. Consequently, it is a cognitive value with the aim of contacting
the outside world and getting to know it then the research proceeded to discuss the
intellectual basics of metaphor according to Ricuor. He noticed that there is no way to
understand the nature of metaphor without understanding its basics. This has made it
possible to handle the knowledgeable and innovative function of metaphor be it the present
side always in language; that which never fades. So, it was not possible to handle metaphor
inside language without wondering how thinking works. Here Ricuor differentiates
between living and consumed metaphor on the basis of the ability of innovation and
knowledge provided by each one of them. Additionally, he has stated that metaphor is
there inside interpretation as it is through it. Such a presence of metaphor inside the field of
interpretation is the reason why one can tackle this polysemy. This polysemy results in this
on the one hand and in its openness on the world of human act; work and practice on the
other hand. This way, metaphor in interpretation is presented as a future language. The
research has ended up with a bunch of results through questioning the concept of metaphor
in a philosophic interpretative way.
