Abstract

Abstract: This article aims to raise an important issue that touches upon contemporary poetry, which intertwines between the poet's awareness with his cognitive, intellectual, and spiritual reality. From this awareness emerge attempts to simulate emotional states characterized by questioning and interaction. At some point, the relationship between the self and these emotional states is constructed, with its multiple and diverse factors. This is evident in the poetry of "Othmane Loucif," which carried these intellectual and artistic variations in sincere attempts to express that spiritual transcendence. This artistic and intellectual depth is reflected through his precise choices of Sufi symbols and artistic imagery, embracing the values of beauty and wisdom. Keyword: Contemporary poetry, Sufism, Sufi symbols, interpretation, Othmane Loucif
