Narration in the poetry of Bashar bin Burd

Abstract

By using the theory of overlapping literary genres, poems are no longer confined to the poetic column, rhyme, iambic, and meter. Some prose arts and their elements have entered into poetry, such as story, play, and narration. That is, poems can contain multiple prose arts.We are in the process of studying the issue of overlapping narration in poetry with a research entitled “Narration in the Poetry of Bashar bin Burad.” We hope that God will grant us success in presenting and studying it completely. The purpose of selecting this subject is the desire and curiosity to enlarge the knowledge about the theory of overlapping literary genres and take a tour of the Poetry of Bashar bin Burad and the aesthetics of his poetry since he was one of the blind writers.Bashar bin Burd is a brilliant and distinguished poet whose poetry is of high quality and has used many narrative techniques in his poetry. We have mentioned in the introduction that the methodology of the research was based on three topics and the narrative techniques that we introduced are: (narrative forms, narration dynamics, and means of constructing narration).So we studied the forms of narration through the multiplicity of pronouns (the absent, the speaker and the addressee).The third person pronoun was the first in the order because the narrators and researchers believe that this pronoun is the master of the pronouns and the most frequently mentioned in the literary texts, followed by the first person pronoun which is close to the absent pronoun in importance, and the last of which is the addressee pronoun as this is the least frequent pronoun in the texts.The dynamic of the narration includes: (the event and the personality). For the event, we studied its patterns in terms of temporal terms, and for brevity, we took the sequential pattern and the overlapping pattern, so the events in Bashar’s poetry came sequentially and the reader does not find trouble and his mind does not get tired of rearranging the events. For the characters, Bashar excelled in embodying them, so the characters varied in his poetry between the main characters and the secondary characters
