The duality of life and death in the poetry of Dr. Mijbel Al-Maliki

Abstract

The concept of the duality of life and death is one of the important topics that resonate in modern research studies. The researcher highlighted it within the literary studies, which made the researcher pay attention to studying it and determining its dimensions for the poet. The poet Mijbil al-Maliki is a contemporary poet. And the depth and smoothness of the style, capturing the vocabulary, broadcasting through it his feelings and emotions, in drawing what he faced from the ordeals of alienation and the separation of loved ones, so he made his poetic paintings with a distinctive stylistic feature, which made his poetic experience of a special aesthetic color, and a clear objective line, sublimating his poems towards the realms of the spirit. Invisibility, in his desire to escape from the physical grip of the body, transcended with his words the repetitive chant, which poets are accustomed to in writing free poetry, through the pictorial and symbolic properties of high intensity, and the suggestive semantic shades.
