Antonyms in the Eulogy Poetry in Sabt Ibn Al-Taawithi Collection (Born in 583 A.H.)
Abstract
Ancient and modern poets have utilized the eulogy as a poetic aim.It is defined by its true emotions and sensations. It is one of the most essential arts that deals with human nature and emotions; it can only originate from a sad person and his or her self-tendencies. The eulogy is a picture painted in a dress of sadness and self-indulgence. Antonyms abound in the poet's eulogy poetry (i.e. life and death, absence and presence, mortality and survival, etc.). The two antonyms come together to generate a lyrical image centered on conflict and controversy. The research is divided into two sections: the first one is about eulogy of parents and relatives, whereas the second one is about eulogy of kings and notables.
