الشاعر الفلسطيني محمود درويش ومفهومه في أدب المقاومة

(Palestinian Poet Mahmoud Darwish And His Concept In Resistance Literature)

Abstract

Mahmoud Darwish was one of the most important poets whose names are associated with the poetry of the revolution and the homeland. Resistance literature is his main priority that comes first for him in terms of expressing his spirit, culture, and intellectual direction. He mixed within himself the bitterness of the experience, the harshness of pressure and terror, and the depth of the injustice feeling towards the enemy; hence this helped him in forming a special psyche for a new Arab poet in the occupied land, which we call as the resistance poet. This research aims to look at Mahmoud Darwish’s life and poetic experience and the concept of resistance literature. The methodology employed in this research are mainly description and analysis, as they present an overview of the poet's life at the beginning of the study. Then, his concept was analysed in the literature of the resistance in order to reach the desired results. The result of this research illustrated that Mahmoud Darwish grew up on the tragedy of his homeland and suffered a lot from injustice and oppression. As a result, it is noticeable that Mahmoud’s resistance literature expresses the reality of feelings and demands of the occupied land people, and bears humane and emotional character, with the sincerity of experience and originality in depicting the human struggle. This poetry may often begin with an expression of pain, injustice, protest, anger and rejection.
Keywords: Resistance literature, Poetic experience, Occupied land, Mahmoud Darwish.
