Abstract
ABSTRACT Such a study prospects the poetic discourse for the stealth poets in the Omayyad era and emanates from the approaches of the cultural criticism that gives importance to the cultural trends focusing upon the structures of the poetic discourse of them to expose its function and references. As the discourse of such poets purports certain propensities pertinent to the insight of the poet and the milieu around him, the acts of delineating and dissecting the meant propensities need interpretation to manifest the sense of the content employed they exploit. The current study stipulates having a preface and three sections; the preface tackles the cultural criticism and the literary discourse as a cultural counterpoise, the first section takes hold of the authority propensity in three axes: 1. Appraisal culture and the target difference. 2. Beneficence culture and superiority to question culture. 3. Expatriate propensity and the stealth poets portrait of deterioration and loss. Yet the second section manipulates the opposition propensity in two axes: 1. self-identification; “I” of the poet as emphatic. 2. sarcasm and obloquy. For the third section takes lead in elucidating the aesthetic propensities and its nexus with the cultural criticism in the stealth poetry in three trends: verisimilitude, replacement, and proximity. Then the study concludes with the findings.
