Abstract

Arabic poetry is spatial poetry in its connection to the environment that produced it and the human being that created it. Thus, the literary researcher has to look at the 'place' in poetry in detachment of nationality, which may limit the place to some external features, or may be best lost to overused expressions. The literary critic should therefore dig deep into the depth of the relationships that the place has with different meanings, verbal and practical traditions, morals, and behavior. 

This study aims to reveal Rashed Hussein's relationship with the 'place'. It focuses on introducing an approximate quantitative census of places and their different spaces. In addition, the research examines the positive and negative references to the place in an attempt to explore the poet's motives to refer to these types of places.

The study also examines and analyzes the data according to the dialectic theory and the phenomenon of contradictory dualities in order to understand how to deal with the conflicts that result from historical circumstances.

The study concludes that the 'place' constitutes a fundamental component in Rashed Hussein's poetry, which reflects his personal circumstances, patriotic Palestinian circumstances, and Arab national circumstances. It also argues that the poet carries the place in his thoughts and feelings, which implies that there is a blending of the poet and the place, and therefore, the elements of nature, earth and the human beings combine within him. Rashed Hussein describes trees, stones, plains, mountains, rivers and the sea, the village and the city that live in his memory. This combination of various places creates the internal world of the committed poet, Rashed Hussein.
