The rhythmic structure in the elegy of Jawharat Ibn Hamdis al-Saqilli: A semantic approach

Abstract

The study often stopped at the musical level of the poem, the dry mathematical aspect, and did not attempt to provide
convincing explanations for the set of interrogatives and questions that arise in the reader’s soul about the reason for the
presence of a deletion or addition in one place rather than another, or the occurrence of a certain repetition. The modern stylistic
study provided an objective reading, so some ambiguity was cleared and lifted. Something ofConfusion and deficiency continue to
plague it as long as the reading of the poetic text remains steady. Whenever one aspect is touched upon, other aspects are
revealed, and complete reading remains an elusive matter that is difficult to achieve.
This study will attempt to reveal the aesthetics of the rhythmic structure in some of its shifts and the resulting semantic
impact through the elegy jawharat by the poet Ibn Hamdis al-Saqili
