Attention to the position and literary characteristics of women's literature in contemporary literary criticism is similar to the expansion and prosperity of women's writing and topics related to this field, especially women's identity, their dialect style and language, each of which can be examined in the form of more detailed components to know the emotional elements of women and the aesthetic approaches of their speech. Among the contemporary women poets whose words are mixed with the color of affection and dealt with the characteristics of the feminine spirit and adorned them with her eloquent pen, is Ms. Susan Aliwan, the Lebanese poetess. In expressing her thoughts and reflections, she seeks to transform the perspective of the society of her time towards women and to introduce woman as a model of sincere emotion and the source of affection and vitality, and to draw the attention of her society to the hidden abilities and capabilities of women. This article tries to introduce this poet and the dimensions of the language aesthetics in her poems in four levels of phonetic, lexical, syntactic and communicative, using a descriptive-analytical method. More importantly, the personality traits, art of writing and her beautiful and gentle spirit in expressing her intentions should be explained. Undoubtedly, investigating the beautiful literary manifestations of this poet’s work and her speaking style in expressing subjects and introducing culture and beliefs, is a clear sign of her eloquence, artistic creativity and miracle in her words, which she presents to the literary community, especially women, in the form of delicate poetry and heartfelt speech, in order to give status and position to women in society and with a logical approach consolidate society's thoughts with women's intellectual sphere and demands for justice in the form of delicate poems based on feminist views.

The struggle for belief, striving for freedom, and achieving social justice are among the fundamental themes of contemporary Arab poets' poetry. One way in which poets have depicted their desires and dreams is by using figures involved in the fight as examples in their poetic texts. Among these figures, Jamila Bouhaird, an important and influential figure from Algeria, is considered a suitable model by poets due to her experience fighting against French colonialism and enduring torture and long suffering in prisons. Her presence has been appropriated by many poets in their political discourses, including Nazul Al-Malaika, Abdul Moti Hijazi, Badr Shaker Al-Siyab, Nizar Qabbani, and Abdul Wahab Al-Bayati.Given the prominent presence of this figure in the poetic discourse of these poets and the semantic load it carries, the current research aims to qualitatively explore the strategies used to depict this character, as well as the degree of his presence and how he intervenes in the poem. The goal is to reveal how these poets use this character in their poetic texts and analyze its implications in order to gain a more accurate understanding of contemporary poetry.The results of the research indicate that Jamila Bohaird has played a role as a role model and active activist in the political discourses related to anti-colonialism and the restoration of lost identity within the poetry of these studied poets. In the conceptualization process, her presence in the poems was central, with her name specified in those texts to reduce emotional distance with her.

Music is one of the most important elements of poetry, as it brings words to life and gives them meaning. Hafez Rajab Borsi Helli (744-813 AH) was a poet from the Mamluk era who wrote eloquent and touching poems in praise and mourning of Ahl al-Bayt (AS), and music played a special role in his work. The purpose of this research is to explain the semantic function of different types of music in poetry, and to explore Borsi Helli's position as a Shiite poet whose work is characterized by both verbal and structural beauty in service of meaning. Using a descriptive-analytical method, this article analyzes the semantic and aesthetic function of music in visual imagery. The findings show that Borsi was successful in using both external and internal music to enhance his poetry. In terms of external music, he established harmony between his poetic themes and the chosen weight, creating a strong bond between his poetry and its music. He also used rhymes effectively to create different effects on readers. In terms of internal music, Borsi used both the music of sounds (such as repetition and puns) and spiritual music (such as Moraat al-Nazir, hint, and other innovative musical arrays) to create coherence and harmony within his work. He incorporated special musical elements into his poetry that added enchantment to songs and voices, helping audiences experience spiritual pleasure while conveying meaning effectively. Overall, this research highlights the importance of music in poetry, particularly within the context of Borsi Helli's work.

This study aims to analyze the components of magical realism in the Tunisian novel "Waqa'a al-Madinah al-Ghariba" and find out how "Abd al-Jabbar al-Osh," the author of this novel, relies on the genre of magical realism or presents facts through the lens of amazing and imaginary things has been able to express political and social problems and shortcomings easily. The success of this Arabic novel in receiving the Tunisian Kumar Literary Award and the fact that this Tunisian novelist is unknown among the literary and academic community of Iran explains one of the necessities of this research; The next issue is the expression of political and social criticism in this novel, which is not limited to Tunisian society and in some way overlaps with the problems of our society today.The authors of the study, after reviewing the novel "Waqa'a al-Madinah al-Ghariba," found in a descriptive-analytical method that "Abd al-Jabbar al-Osh," relying on components such as the plot of the fantastic events, symbolization, contrast between modernity and tradition, socio-political theme and also expressionist descriptions that are among the standard components of magical realism stories have also succeeded in expressing the depth and breadth of the social and political problems of Tunisian society, In this way, by informing the reader, he encourages him to make a change in society.

Verisimilitude is a significant element of stories and plays, and it depends on the degree of conformity of the work with external objectivity. This correspondence does not represent complete objectivity, which separates literary works from belletristic and historical texts. Verisimilitude means reflecting reality and bringing it back to life in a credible way for the audience. Extra-textual objectivity is a structure that each writer uses in their work based on their approach and literary style. Ashura's drama literature seeks to revive the Karbala incident in the form of a play. Determining the border between objectivity, belletristic, and imagination in these works has been the focus of this research. Many Arabic plays can be found, each dealing with the events of Karbala from a specific angle. Three prominent plays were selected: "Al-Har al-Riyahi" by Iraqi poet and writer Abd al-Razzaq Abd al-Wahed, "Al-Hussein Tha'era" by Egyptian author Abdul Rahman Sharqawi, and "Al-Hussein" by Syrian writer Walid Fazel. This study investigates the conformity of these three works of art with the objectivity of the history of Karbala using analytical-descriptive methods. Based on some findings from this research, authors have used various tools such as factual and historical characters, narration of historical events, use of logical and natural plots to strengthen the truthfulness of their works. However, Abdul Wahed's work has more tools than others. Shargawi's work is closer to narrating the history of Karbala than other two works. The aspect of religious realism can be found in special events in "Al-Hossein's" play.

In terms of meaning, rhetoric, and literature, the term "Esteghaseh" refers to requesting intercession. In ancient Arab literature, a type of poetry with the theme of supplication called "Esteghaseh" emerged, employing two spiritual and material instruments: "trusting" and "bonding," to seek a change in the target society's circumstances. The literary themes of Esteghaseh convey the social responsibility and artistic commitment of the poets, according to research by literature and literary history scholars. To gain a deeper understanding of why this type of poetry is written, it is evident that theories examining society's knowledge and specific people at the time will be useful. In this descriptive and analytical study, an attempt was made to utilize Pierre Bourdieu's sociological perspective. According to this theory, social commitment, action, and reaction reflect society's character. The sociological analysis of this crucial issue will disclose the impact of dominant social structures on the submissive class in society.Some verses on the subject of Esteghaseh led to uninformed behavior in the social structure during the age of ignorance and resistance to compulsions issued by the ruling class. Therefore, during Muslim rule in Andalusia, factors such as constant economic and political conflicts, moral corruption among rulers, attacks, and catastrophes resulting from crusades led to the development of this type of poetry and its evolution into an independent art form. Additionally, investigating why praise does not last as well as gradual disobedience and complaint against ruling laws with time can be done by taking into account praise for ruling class along with requests for help in this type of literature.
