Abstract:
We have chosen the term "eternity" in the poetry of Abdul Hamid Al - Samawi because of the indications of awareness of eternity it carries and the way of employing it, in addition to the role it plays in engineering the text : a process which is considered one of the most important streams of the poetical experience of the creative person whie it is on the threshold of producing a new text. The nature of the topic has required that it be divided up into a preface and two parts preceded by an introduction and followed by a conclusion containing most of the findings arrived at Finally, a list of references has been added.I have followed in my research the inductive descriptive approach.The preface has been given the title" Eternity between Philosophy and Poetry", while the first part has been devoted to the" Objective Study". As for the second part ,it has been devoted to keeping an eye on the artistic factors by mean of the tools of the aesthetic molding.The research has arrived at the following findings : *It has become clear the Al - Samwi's poetry has mixed between imitation and innovation at the same time. That is to say, his collection of poetry has included the traditional topics and the modernized ones which appeared in modern Arabic poetry. It has become clear that the subject of "eternity" was conspicuous.*It has become clear that the main motive behind composing poetry was the society in general and the Samawa environment in particular. This is considered one of the most important outside attitudes to which the motive responds. The influence of the environment has been apparent in Al - Samawi's poetry as a result of how he viewed it. The influence of religious occasions has been also clear which has made the poet long for contemplating the landmarks of eternity as represented in Ahlul Bayt(AS) lofty edifices.The third motive has been represented in in Al - Samawi's pondering over life and death.Life in all its troubles and pains imposes on him pains and sufferings which makes him criticize its leisure. He has ,therefore, kept a close eye on all its manifestations. As for his pondering over death, the poet launches into mentioning death prolonging contemplating it. He has also expressed his delight upon seeing graves and casted long looks on them. He has also pondered over universe and existence.His existential concern has been clear which was its main motive to think of the other world and the eternal rest.*It has become clear that Al - Samawi's has penetrated the language looking into it as deep as his emotions using its styles in line with what he deems convenient for his psyche and doctrine. He reclines once on the eternity expressions of the heritage while in other times uses simple expressions , but the language of eternity which has taken a distinctive feature is the easy and simple language. His poetic lexicon has been characterized by the domination of the eternity expressions and their derivatives. They are considered the most dominant expressions over the poet's vision. Through these dominating expressions , he has been able to express cases struggling in his mind whether in reality or in imagination.*It has been apparent that Al - Samawi made manifested the linguistic structure in the poetry of eternity in more than one meaning as deemed convenient according to his poetic experience. The poet , therefore, has subjected for this purpose expression and constructions which he thinks they can achieve this objective. These style have varied and they have been controlled by his poetic feelings and emotions.*Al - Samawi has adopted the traditional criteria in the metrical structure of his poem. Examining carefully and employing the Arabic metres , he has revealed to us the intensity of his use to specific metres as used by ancient poets such as the metres of the Kamil, Tawil, Khafif, and Basit. He has intentionally resorted to metres diversity in texts where homogeneous and heterogeneous metres are used for the sake of waving movements among feet. As for rhyme, it looked as though it were a rich multidimensional sonorant action which has contributing to granting the text sobriety and stability.in addition to shedding light on the semantic dimension of texts.*The internal music for the poetry of eternity has reflected in alliteration and bringing the reare to the fore to express what Al - Samawi feels of. it has also been found that he resorts to repetition in its being one of the styles of expression. The poet had recourse to creating his own internal music through repeating a group of sounds which have a specific type of phonetic characteristics. He has repeated letters, utterances and constructions to perfect the meaning and fix it alongside phonetic effects to achieve musical harmony.*Al - Samawi has found in the Glorious Quran an inexhaustible fountain of meanings and utterances which have been absorbed by his mind and filled the depths of his soul. So, he started to drink of this sweet fountain living with the verses of eternity to such an extent that his texts were formation of many texts rephrased to meet his poetic attitude and vision.*The role of the religious symbol in the poetry of eternity has become apparent and the most outstanding symbol has been that of religious and historical heritage. The poet has been in the habit of recalling his immortal religious characters whichreflects his feeling that such characters were of great richness especially when we take into consideration that his look is in accordance with his psyche and poetic experience ; thus he has cared a lot for his doctrinal thought which formed later on a discourse specific to him in order to achieve cohesion between his experience and the symbol of eternity because he has expressed what he has inside himself by means of subjective motives.*The study has revealed the domination of personification in an imaginative context adopted by the poet in more than one poetic image. This personification has emanated from the passion and psyche of the poet. Imagination has extended over a huge space as regards his depictions especially after he has made the inanimate possess the qualities of the human being which has made the recipient understand and grasp the meaning more clearly ; hence the poet has been able to construct a multitude of new unrelated depictions.
