THE AESTHETICS OF CONTEMPORARY PALESTINIAN ZAJAL: DĪWĀN GHEMĀR AL FARAḤ ‎BY TAWFĪQ ḤALABĪ AS A MODEL

Tawfīq Ḥalabī Palestinian Zajal poet (born in 1968) in the village of Dāliyat al-Karmel in northern ‎Israel. He has contributed to the revival of the Zajal pulpit. He is the founder of the Al-Amal ‎Choir and the Al-Bayāder Choir. This year 2022, the Dīwān of Ghemār Al Faraḥ was issued to ‎him, and it contains a group of his poems and Zajal dialogues. Ghemār Al Faraḥ‏ ‏is a ‎documentation of what Tawfīq Ḥalabī organized over the years in the field of spoken folk poetry ‎and Zajal.‎ This research relies on the material of Ghemār Al Faraḥ through reading it and examining the ‎poetic, rhetorical and descriptive aesthetics and poetic images in it.‎ The research acquires its importance by revealing the characteristics of what Al-Zajal excelled in ‎Ghemār Al Faraḥ. The research also reflects a positive picture describing the poetic level spoken ‎in Palestine in this era. Most of the research objectives lie in highlighting the descriptive and ‎rhetorical aesthetics and poetic images in the contemporary Palestinian poetry of Zajal.‎ The research monitors aesthetics related to social implications, human values, and emotional ‎description on the one hand, and the artistic and rhetorical methods used in the subject of Zajal ‎in the Ghemār Al Faraḥ, and then concludes the research with a conclusion presenting its most ‎prominent conclusions‎.

Keywords: Tawfīq Ḥalabī, Ghemār Al Faraḥ, Zajal, Palestinian Spoken Poetry.
