Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to uncover the unique aspects of Al-Taremmah bin Hakim's poetry, specifically in the realm of satire, within the context of the Umayyad era. It seeks to shed light on his poetic compositions, which engaged in battles of wit with renowned poets such as Al-Farazdaq, triumphing over them. One of the notable distinguishing features of Al-Taremmah's satire—unmatched or incomparable by any other poet—is his skillful use of animals to mock and deride his targets. Methods: The study employed a descriptive approach, analyzing the phenomenon through an examination of the poet's body of work. Results: Al-Taremmah's poetry demonstrates the incorporation of more than twenty different animals in his humorous compositions, ranging from birds and reptiles to savage creatures and pets. In fact, in his Diwan (collection of poetry), every satirical poem I encountered prominently featured an animal, with the creature assuming dominance over the scene's details. This represents a novel approach to satire within Umayyad poetry, surpassing the extent and intensity of animal usage exhibited by any pre-Islamic or Umayyad poets before him, to the best of my knowledge. Conclusions: This study emphasizes the importance of exploring the poetic collections of various authors, discerning the artistic phenomena that distinguish each poet from others, and identifying the distinctiveness that sets them apart.
动物在讽刺作品中的运用:Al-Taremmah
目的:本研究旨在揭示Al-Taremmah bin Hakim诗歌的独特方面,特别是在讽刺领域,在倭马亚时代的背景下。它试图揭示他的诗歌创作,他与著名诗人如Al-Farazdaq进行了机智的战斗,并战胜了他们。Al-Taremmah的讽刺作品有一个显著的特点——其他任何诗人都无法比拟——就是他熟练地使用动物来嘲笑和嘲弄他的目标。方法:采用描述性研究方法,通过考察诗人的作品体来分析这一现象。结果:Al-Taremmah的诗歌在他的幽默作品中展示了二十多种不同的动物,从鸟类和爬行动物到野蛮动物和宠物。事实上,在他的《Diwan》(诗集)中,我遇到的每一首讽刺诗都以动物为突出特征,动物占据了场景细节的主导地位。据我所知,这代表了倭马亚诗歌中一种新颖的讽刺方式,超越了在他之前的任何前伊斯兰或倭马亚诗人对动物使用的程度和强度。结论:本研究强调了探索不同作者的诗集的重要性,识别区分每个诗人的艺术现象,并识别使他们与众不同的独特性。
