The Poem of Recognition and Criticism of Authority in Modern Iraqi Poetry

Abstract

importance of the study is to highlight an aspect in which the study is almost limited, as the research is based on tracing the dialectic of political recognition in modern iraqi poetry, which in turn represented a distinct experience in the iraqi poetic space ; because it carries a deep human voice for a self that represented life with all its negative and positive contradictions, the poetic political recognition constituted a fertile field based on the demolition of the barrier of fear and hesitation by breaching the wall of the sacred taboo, which is represented by a person’s sense of authority in the supreme realm. normal to penetrate its air ; because it belongs to the authority at the head of the government, which represents the striking force of its opponents and critics, and for everyone who disagrees with it in opinion and ideology, and at the same time, political recognition has produced a key to revealing the locks of the psychological poetic self, and the introspection of its secrets, its silences, and the special visions it holds. and ideas.

 We have concluded that it is necessary to present the research with an introduction in which we define the concept of recognition within its linguistic and literary dimension, as it is the theme that we are looking for in the product of modern poets in Iraq. Then the research proceeds to reveal the manifestation of political recognition by diving into the textual body and revealing the confessional connotations armed with suggestion, symbol, or diagnosis, or relying on special codes and signs that reveal the nature and significance of recognition; This is in an effort by the poetic self to expose the repressive political methods that the Iraqi people have suffered for many years, and to reveal the twisted ways that the authorities use to falsify and obscure the facts.
