Abstract :

Phonetic semantics play a key role in expressing aesthetics, through the study of the characteristics of sounds, the repetition of words, and their relevance with meanings.Contemporary Iraqi poetry was not limited to the care of good systems only. But the concern was with that and before it in the sense. Abd al-Azim Finjan (1955-) an Iraqi poet who sang romantic poetry in contemporary Arabic literatureThe most prominent of his poetry collections is "Angels Return to Work", consisting of two parts. The first is: "A People of Butterflies and Crystal", which is a celebration of love in all its variations. The second is titled "The Legend of the Book Thief" and deals with personal legends of men and women, with an important paragraph called "Gospel". Apocryphal" where wisdom mingles with the everyday poem. In his poetry, there is a kind of music that was not perceived except through a delicate sense and a precise understanding. This inner music hides in the conscience of words, structures and sentences and affects the listener with a special effect. This research pays attention to the vocal aesthetics through the semantics of sounds, and the statement of the characteristics of poetic sounds. We chose the collection of poetry "The Angels Return to Work" because of the abundance of what we saw in it of the sounds' indication of its subject matter and because of the implications of these vocal techniques in the poet's poetry.
