Abstract

It is not possible to imagine narrative without the presence of the temporal element and its relationship to the narrative structure of the narrative. The other narrative elements find their entity through their relationship with time, and narrative time embraces the events, and the storyteller makes it a narrative center in which all narrative elements are common. The narrative systematic study of a group of temporal sequences or temporal paradox, a study in narrative discourse, and awareness of time within narrative discourse have a deep understanding of it and other narrative elements. This seeks to develop this specific approach, studying the poem “The Epic of the Military Creature” by the contemporary Jordanian poet Jamil Abu Sabih. The poem is considered a new poetic experience in which different topics are mixed in a single poetic work. A lot of research and critical consideration, and also this research are an important step in identifying his new poetic experience. In this research journey, we aspire to approach his poetry and achieve awareness of him and his vision and ideas through studying the temporal element whose presence dominates the poet’s poems, which express his high narrative awareness of the importance of this narrative element. We also notice that the poem is charged with temporal paradox, and time represents tools, and the poet, with his high narrative awareness, uses the technique of retrieval and temporal anticipation, and in some narrative scenes, the lens of the narrative camera go back and recounts the past experience of the character and its relationship to the past events that occurred from the character, where he tampered with life. With its physical tendencies, temporal interruption, and the use of temporal anticipation in a poetic scene in which the poet draws the glow of the soul and the presence of the poem on a winter night, an emphasis on the inevitability of life’s effectiveness after getting rid of futile, murderous tendencies, waging war, confrontation, and confronting the other.
Keywords: Chronological structure, Jamil Abu Sabih, modern Jordanian poetry, the epic of the warlike creature.

Introduction

The text cannot be understood and understood in every new creative experience without paying attention to time. According to the expression of Siza Qasim, the narrative element and the main component of the narrative discourse and the fixed and important structure on which the novel is built and enhances the presence of the narrative elements and is considered the important narrative incubator on which the other narrative elements perform their function by relying on it. This research, in its critical journey, follows the descriptive-analytical approach in studying this poem, which enjoys the early spaces that deserve research. And the study. What concerns us in this study is the temporal element and its relationship to events and other elements and understanding the poet's ideas and familiarity with them. Among the questions that concern us in this critical journey are: What are the most important temporal characteristics in this poem that is in our hands? What is the role of the temporal element in the movement of the poetic text in Jamil Abu Subaih? How does the temporal process take place in Jamil Abu Subaih's poetry? Such questions push us to delve into the world of this poem and critically examine it through research and study to find clear answers to them through a systematic study that reveals the details of this poem in the multiple temporal levels and addresses the temporal network of the poem in light of its relationship to the overall meaning of the poem.

Materials & Methods

Time does not proceed in a single straight line, but rather, in many cases, it is subject to tension and disruption. In the text of the novel, the narration of events does not take place in a single temporal path, but rather the novel departs from its temporal path and the hierarchy or linearity of time is broken and the narrative path deviates with the presence of the past and a return to it or an exit from the narrated present time to the future and the future time that the character in the text of the novel looks forward to, with its events and transformations, which makes the text of the novel a temporal paradox with the presence of the past and the temporal future or the ascent, as Hamid Lahmadani calls it, and he calls the return to the past and the return to the past the temporal descent. At this stage of the study, we demonstrate the temporal effectiveness in Jamil Abu Subaih’s poetry by studying this narrative element in light of a look at the meanings and their relationship to this element and what we aspire to in this critical journey that is like the first critical adventure in the poet’s poetry, getting to know the poet, his ideas and his poetry by critically dwelling on the element of time that we notice has an overwhelming presence in his poetry.
 

Research findings

The specific temporal summary in the word winter and not going into the details of this time period, is an attempt to spread faith and certainty in the inevitability of the end of this heavy time and a sign of the arrival of the end and drawing the positive time period in this time context, in detail and depth, a narrative attempt to urge the recipient and encourage him to resist and struggle and plant hope in the souls of the masses with what the poet spreads of signs that herald a bright and beautiful tomorrow with the confrontation. The other time period begins in which the character spreads singing in the land and the homeland. The temporal deletion in this narrative scene expresses the lack of continuity of the previous negative time and suggests the cancellation of the events in that time period and the speed of their salvation without condensation. In the subsequent time period, the narrator mentions the events in detail and depth and narrates the denial of the gazelle who stole the shells from him. After that stage, he went into war and conflict, and with his death and martyrdom, he spreads singing in the land.

Discussion of Results & Conclusion

The world of this poem is an appeal to get to know the poet, his thoughts and his positions by projecting a critical vision onto his poem and addressing the temporal element whose presence dominates the poet’s poems with its various styles and manifestations. Time is the basic element in the poet’s poetry and the temporal process does not take place in a single temporal line, but the poet often uses temporal techniques in his poem. These narrative temporal techniques create a temporal paradox in the poet’s poetry and through them the poet breaks the temporal monotony, such as the flashback technique. The poet, through flashback, evokes the time in which the Arab person drowns in his pleasures and materialistic physical tendencies and forgets his land and his cause. Through the use of the temporal anticipation technique, the poet evokes the future moment full of life, continuity, ecstasy and immortality for the land and its people, as we notice the temporal acceleration in this poem. The poet, through this temporal technique, suggests the end of the current negative stage and the beginning of a new life after waging war, conflict and confrontation.
