Abstract:
The prose poem of the 1990s is considered one of the important
contributions of the Iraqi poetic scene. The poem found a position in the Iraqi
poetry because of the favor of a group of youth poets who lefty clear traces.
Their linguistic techniques often violate the domain o9f language, significance
and image.
The poems of those youth poets moved the verse towards reality to
drink from its abundant springs in order to stand on a rigid ground. Their
linguistic traces are characterized by paradox and astonishment that are used
by the poet to construct his poem.
The paradox was considered an ideal means for constructing a
poem by some of them. The poem moved towards definitions and these
definitions gave the poem strength to break the horizon of writing for the
listeners.
From another side, the poets of the 1990s were gown wearing the
gown of the old through the spread of wisdom in the poem, while they were
youth. Furthermore, the pot included some of the philosophic views which do
not go out of the subject of philosophy and searching for reality through the
subject of life and death. More details are given in this study.
