| Abstract | ||||
| Performance poetry, in general, is a multifaceted field: a varied art form that emerged from many different traditions. The main conception of oral poetry that can describe this poetic technique is spoken-word poetry. Performance poetry and spoken word have to incorporate into groups with much broader definitions of spoken poetry. One of the most visible conceptions of performance poetry is the poet's presence at the place of performance. It is argumentative because the poet assumes authorship and responsibility for the poem by performing it in front of his audience. The following study examines the effect of spoken word poetry on the development of performance. Also, this study reveals that the use of spoken word poetry on the stage impacts the development of the poet's performance. Allen Ginsberg is one of the most well-known poets who innovated in this field. Other poets are changing the genre by using their voices as their medium. The audience finds Ginsberg's feeling of presence to be inspirational. This study explores spoken word poetry's capacity to stimulate transformation by addressing urgent social issues. One conclusion that could come out of this research is that while the spoken word is a tool for creative expression, it may also serve as a medium as a channel for internal representation, which could ultimately lead to social action and change. The spoken word in this research illustrates the poet's ability to integrate performance with poetic literature. مستخلص موضوع هذا البحث يدور حول رؤي ( آلان جنسبرج ) لدور الأداء بمزجه مع الكلمة المنطوقة لبلورة ملامح أسلوبه الأدائي للشعر من خلال دراسة وصفية تحليلية لشرح فكرته الرئيسة التي اعتمدت علي تطبيقه للكلمة المنطوقة من خلال أدائه لمجلده "عويل وقصائد أخري مثل "عويل" (1955-1954), "عباد الشمس سوترا" (1955)، "أمريكا"(1956)، "سوبرماركت في كاليفورنيا" (1956). كما تبين هذه الدراسة قدرة "جنسبرج" في توظيف قصائده مستخدماً الكلمة المنطوقة على تحفيز التحول من خلال معالجة القضايا الاجتماعية الملحة بتأثيره علي المستمع ليضمن تفاعله مع أحد الاستنتاجات التي يمكن أن يخرج بها هذا البحث : هو أن الكلمة المنطوقة هي أداة للتعبير الإبداعي وقد تكون أيضا بمنزلة وسيلة للتمثيل الداخلي ، مما يؤدي في النهاية إلى العمل الاجتماعي والتغيير، كما تتجلي قدرة " جنسبرج " في دمج الأداء في الأدب الشعري مع الكلمة المنطوقة لتشكيل ملامح أسلوبه الشعري بجانب تأثيره علي الجمهور. | ||||
