دلالات الرّموز الطّبيعيّة في شعر إلياس أبي شبكة (مقاربة سيميائية)

Natural symbols come in the poetry of contemporary poets to deepen meanings and clarify what is going on in their imagination, and to be codes for what they want to express, covering meanings and emotions in the guise of natural symbols and conveying them to the recipient. This article relies on the descriptive-analytical approach and studies natural symbols and their connotations in the poetic works of the Lebanese poet Elias Abi Shabaka.

Some of the results indicate that in Abu Shabaka’s poetic experience there are many symbols with sensory semantic data in themselves, which he has adopted as a suggestive means to indicate moral states and psychological emotions, in a way that these symbols are unified with what they symbolize. The poet also draws inspiration from the reality of nature for symbols that carry the meaning of the continuation of life, hope, love and death, and within them are different psychological and emotional connotations imposed by the nature of the poetic context.
