Visual image of AbuAla-Almari


This research deals with visual imagery the famous poet Abu Al- Alaa L 'Mari, who lived during the Abbacy period, uses in his poems. At the age of four to five he suffered from smallpox which made him loose his eye sight. Most of the blinds can't remember anything and no images remain in their memories. But this poet admits he remembers the red color, because he wore red dress during his disease. But if he could remember the red color, he should also be able to remember the images of other colors, which are saved in his subconscious memory. He had referred to them when he needed. This research tries to prove this theory through his poems and use of the following rhetoric devices: Similar (The image of sparkle, image of night, image of eye and the image of location), Metaphor of (Nostalgia and the image of light), the image of colors (black and white and other colors), Metonymy (Repetition and Hint).Finally, if no images remained in his subconscious memory, how could he be able to portray this huge amount of visual images in his poems and outperform the sighted?
