الحمق والجنون في أشعار نزار قباني.

This article discussed the two common consecutive concepts: stupidity and madness in Nizar Qabbani’s collections. There are two reasons for focusing on this topic. The first is the lack of the critical works devoted to the topic despite of the great attention paid to this poet's experience. The second is some interesting poetic meanings through which he could manage to say what has been unsaid before although he created his stupid and mad characters from a heavy literary heritage. Therefore, to approach some of these meanings, we started with some highlights of the most eminent problems and themes which we are going to go through. The aim of this study is to raise three issues. The first one is exploring the textual connection between the two terms: stupidity and madness. The second is identifying the transformations of stupidity in Nizar's poetry. The third issue we focused on is what we called the madness of love/madness of literature . By studying Nizar's writings, we came up with several findings. The most important is that the two terms: stupidity and madness and what is derived from them in addition to their synonymes have common semantic field and connection. However, if we seperate them in use, we can see stupidity meanings have witnessed several transformations which made the ugly looks beautiful and the beautiful looks ugly. In this study, we also found out that there is nothing like the mad love and to madness all the literary works refer. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
