Abstract

this research discusses parallelism in Marthiyatul Ghubar (Arabic for Mourning of Dust) a poem by the Lebanese poet Shawqi Bazie. It also links between the structure and the repetition contained therein, as well as the intended rhetorical relationship resulting from that parallel, i.e. an attempt to link poetic formation with poetic vision. The research highlights that the Mourning of Dust contains many forms of parallelism that are not just a filler to complete the speech, but rather serve the poet's vision, ideas, and beliefs. The research also concludes that the phonetic and syntactic parallels are the most present in the poem. The poet focuses on parallelism, in particular, to say what he wants leaving the areas of interpretation open to the reader, and he thus wants a critical thinking reader, not a neutral one who does not dig into the text or interact with it. The poet wants his idea to last and for other people to believe in it.
