These concepts is symbols of realities in Arabic societies. Adonis described the society in vortex of leeway, inaction and absolute death. Considering phoenix as a symbol of revolutionary human, Adonis tried to back to glorious period (civilization of Fynyqy) and revolted against current Arabic civilization.
Two usages of phoenix were considered in Adonis’s poetries; first, summoning (the role of a human or as poet himself) and second, eminent noun (clearly expressing the word of phoenix).
