Abstract

Defamiliarization is considered as one of the manifestations of the modern linguistics that deals with removing the monotony and Defamiliarization from the standard language as well as methods of using language in literary works. Hence, it is considered a Defamiliarization of the speech from its usual pattern, which is crystallized in the composition and formulation of speech Which is subject to the principle of selection which creates different connotations It breaks through the law, where the first signifies the possibility of multiple meaning. Accordingly, not consider just a communication tool, rather, the poet is guided through his employment to the aesthetic and the extension of the significance of the poetic achievement to enter into the circle of creativity and novelty. The present paper is an attempt to analyze the indicative Defamiliarization and its manifestations and reflections in the poetry of the contemporary Jordanian poet, Ayman al-Atūm, who is one of the resistant poets against Zionist Regime. Applying this technique, the poet tries to pass the standard language and to leave it behind; the language that is disable from expressing his emotions and feelings which are mixed with his soul. Relying on the stylistic method, this study aims at analyzing this subject in the poetry of this contemporary Jordanian poet. Finally, the study came to this conclusion that the poet has used this technique within his poems to show his psychological suffering, poetical experience and emotions; accordingly, he has applied Defamiliarization as a strong tool to change meaning, highlighting the concepts, and getting released from the domination of language on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is used to rebel against standard language and the ruling political system his poetic text makes a special language different from the familiar language.The most important representations of indicative Defamiliarization in his poetry include metonymy, metaphor, simile and irony.
