Revolution and Country Revelations in Kamal Nasser’s Poetry

Abstract

The country concerns and anxieties, Palestinians’ tragedy and its major holocausts in the modern history with various dimensions of: humanitarian shred, compulsory negation, the “prophet” commando, the “god” martyr, and calling for the Arab Union so as to promote and confirm the identity and advocating the Arab revolutions as being an embodiment of the Palestinian “Ego” meeting and uniting with the revolutionary one.; all of them contributed to the formation of poetic pivots and intellectual revelations in Kamal Nasser’s poetry; who registered exploiting creative language the history of the Palestinian people and the living reality of the nation, hence,  founding a provocative vision that endeavors to combat ugliness and hideousness in this world, change its face and enlighten its soul with righteous, justice and freedom.

The poet’s attentiveness of the reality’s facts and commitment toward expressing his country and nation’s issues reveal intensive poetic bursts with evocative dimension sometimes and other times a oratorical tone; but in both ways, it exceeds the expression of the individual dimension to the humanitarian one.

This research is exploring the dimensions of the poetry experience in the Poet’s work from two aspects: observing the substantive phenomenon and its patriotic, national and revolutionary manifestations so as to get the reader reach the phases of the intellectual awareness in Kamal Nasser’s life and its practical impacts in his attempts to link work with strife, as he pictured it in his poetic experiences. Second, the stylistic critical side that studies the poetic scripts-profoundly- to disclose its linguistic structures, artistic components and then producing the meanings derived from their depth without forcing them to say what they do not have.
