Aesthetics is one of the fundamental concepts in the study of poetry, highlighting
the beauty of poetic texts and their interaction with social and psychological
contexts. In the poetry of Abbas Baydoun, this beauty is manifested through the
use of symbols and modern techniques such as irony and deviation, reflecting the
depth of human experience and illustrating psychological and social complexities.
The socio-psychological impact is evident in Baydoun's ability to portray social
reality through a psychological lens, where he addresses issues of identity,
belonging, and internal conflicts, enriching the text and reflecting the tensions and
paradoxes experienced by individuals in their communities. The beauty of
symbols is evident in their use as expressive tools carrying multiple meanings,
while paradox serves as an effective means to create clear contrasts between
superficial and profound meanings. Deviation is also apparent in the poet's
manipulation of traditional texts and their reworking in new ways that reflect
changes in reality. This study employs a descriptive-analytical approach to
understand these elements and explore their interactions, further emphasizing the
depth of poetic texts. The study's findings indicate that aesthetics in Abbas
Baydoun's poetry is significantly influenced by psychological and social realities,
where the poet demonstrates a unique ability to explore the human psyche and
depict complex social relationships, providing readers with a profound and
impactful experience. Baydoun's poetry represents a rich model of poetic
aesthetics that intertwines psychological and social elements, allowing readers to
delve into the depths of human experience and the struggles of individuals in a
changing world.
