Abstract:
The topic of my thesis (The Other in the Poetry of Ibn Hani' Al - Andalusi(died 362A.H)) which is one of the topics that emerged as a result of the evolution of life and its expansion . The subject of the other which is prominent these days is the most widely researched among scholars . After the expansion of the Arab ego , it began to aspire to the non - Arab other. Comparisons have been conducted between this ego and the other especially the Roman and the Persian ones.The term , therefore, has emerged as a relative changing concept; its connotations were varied : it denoted all that which was different from the self such as man in contrast to woman, Arab in contrast to non - Arab and the slave in contrast to the master.This study has dealt with the other in the poetry of Ibn Hani' Al - Andalusi. The latter has addressed the other whether hostile or friendly, agreeing or differing with that other. The image of the other has , therefore, been coloured according to the multiplicity of colours of the life of the poet who touched upon the manifestations of the hostile other since the very beginning of one's life as represented by the Omayyad other ; consequently , his sect and religious belief lead him to clash even further . He has faced the Abbasside and Persian other. It was not only this : the poet formed an image for the other different from the hostile image which is the image of the other compatible with his ego or self . The poet has crowned all this with various meanings the most conspicuous of which were the praised other , the woman and the lamented other .The poet did not stop at this point ; rather he tried to form an image for the other through his self because the cultural heritage stored by his self and which was the best aid for him in highlighting the image of the other through the technique of symbolization and mythology which have been employed to uphold the image of the praised. These mythological symbols have represented the other for the poet's self.The research have arrived at the following conclusions : 1. The images of the other in the poetry of Ibn Hani' Al - Andalusi were varied in their being human and non - human and this other may agree or disagree with the self because the self composing poetry has varied as regards acceptance and rejection and reflected the psychological aspects as represented by the ego of the poet.2. The image of the praised other has occupied a wide space of the poets product and this image has carried meanings with numerous forms which became apparent in describing the other/ the praised through epithets revealing the poet's admiration of this other and in which the other embraced the self on the one hand and a close contact and solidarity between the characteristics of the other/ the praised and its religious sect on the other. Therefore, the ego and the other the praised representing the religious faith became compatible .3. The poet depicted one of the levels of the other compatible with the ego and that depiction was the woman in contrast to man . This woman was not separated from him (the man) and the concentrations of the loved woman the other was predominant in his poems whether in his introductions or within his poems and may be a felt reality or imagination . The other depiction was of the mother as in his lamenting of J'afar's and Yahya's mother and it seemed it was an influencing factor in the ego of the poet because he saw in her the mother of which the poet was deprived throughout .4. The research has concluded that the other , the lamented has been represented by the poet through Imam Hussein( peace be upon him) : an expositions which had a dimension for the individual and the Shi'a collective ego because he has depicted the dimension of the Omayyad hostility for the Shi'a aspect of self through depicting Karbala calamity which carried a positive landmark or fingerprintsss in the poet's product , thus it was an expression of the ego or the self
