| Summary: | Undoubtedly, the poems of any poet resemble a mirror reflecting the circumstances of his time and illustrate his feelings and reactions to the current events of society. On the other hand, poems too impact social events of their time and may encourage people to perform an action or prevent them from undertaking an activity. The poems of FadvāToqān, a political and committed poet from Palestine, represent the pains, hopes and wishes as well as the struggles and resistance of the people who are treated in their homeland like strangers and invaders.Fadvā is influenced by the pains and sufferings ofher people and society and puts her grief into words; sometimes she thinks it impossible to become free from these problems and sufferings and thus plunges into a whirlpool of despair. This is then followed by her poetry of hope where she chants 'resistance till freedom' and sacrifices allher love, devotion and blood for the sake of her homeland. The present paper, relying on the analysis of Toqān'sDivan, categorizes her poems into three themes of despair and disappointment, hope and determination for changing the future and finally struggle and resistance. Based on this classification we identified a trend in these poems: a trend from despair to hope and struggle. For all the issues discussed above, numerous instances are extracted from FadvāToqān'sDivanand analyzed using completeinduction. |
