The master's thesis at the College of Education for Girls at the University of Basra examined "The Phenomenological Horizon in the Employment of Symbols and Myths in Arabic Poetry: A Comparative Study." The thesis, submitted by researcher Hanin Habib Ismail in the Department of Arabic Language, aimed to explore the phenomenological horizon through a comparative approach between poetic models from the pre-Islamic era and modern poetry. The thesis included three chapters, after the introduction and preface. The first chapter addressed symbols and myths as a radical history, in addition to the ideological dimension of myths in modernist texts and their manifestation as a civilizational revival. The second chapter included the concept of motifs as an essential component upon which the poet relies in formulating poetic events. The third chapter reviewed motifs of nature and mythological motifs. The thesis concluded that the phenomenological approach allowed for the consideration of symbols and myths as revelatory structures that express the potential for symbolic and mythical employment based on human consciousness, as they are intentional emitters emanating from the self.
