Dramatics Placement in Rita’slong Winter Poeme by Mahmoud Darwich

Abstract

This study deals with two important stylistic issues, namely: intertextuality and displacement as two effective tools in the hands of the researcher through which he can approach the studied text and identify its artistic dimensions and backgrounds that he wants.

Hence, intertextuality was an important topic and one of the components of the text for researchers since ancient times, and if its names differed, the ancients talked about it and called it plagiarism and quotation, and they had different opinions about it.

  In contemporary Arab poetry, we find Mahmoud Darwish among the poets who interact a lot with the Arab and international heritage. It employs the religious, historical, artistic, mythical and popular heritage in addition to the political aspect. We were not able to cover all these aspects, so the choice fell on one of Mahmoud Darwish's contemporary poems, which is "Rita's Long Winter".

  The problem of the article is based on a set of important questions, which are mainly related to what is aesthetic, historical and political heritage with the Jews, and from here we ask: What prompted the poet to interact with the Jewish heritage? Are there purely aesthetic reasons? Or are political reasons justified in the poem?
