الثنائيات المتضادة وأثرها في شعر زياد الأعجم, د. مسلم عبيد الرشيدي
Midad AL-Adab Refereed Quarterly Journal
تعد الثنائيات المتضادة من الركائز المهمة التي يعتمد عليها الشعراء في بناء قصائدهم منذ القدم، وفي بداية عصر صدر الإسلام جاءت هذه الثنائيات المتضادة واضحة في قصائد الشاعر زياد الأعجم الذي عاش معظم حياته في القرن الأول الهجري، واتخذ منها لوناً وطابعاً يستحسنه في بناء قصائده مثل: الحياة والموت، والخير والشر، والغنى والفقر، والصدق والكذب، وغيرها من الثنائيات المتضادة الأخرى، كما تنوعت مضامين هذه الثنائيات المتضادة وتوزعت بحسب حاجة الشاعر والمناسبة التي تُقال فيها، وقد بيّنت دراسة هذا البحث أن الشاعر يتكئ بشكل واضح على هذا اللون، وهذا يظهر جلياً لمن يقرأ قصائد الشاعر، وكذلك نستطيع القول إن الشاعر جعل …

إنَّ طبيعة المرء يحاول إخفاء ما يقوله أو يكتبه، ولا يفهمه في بعض الأحيان إلا من كان موجهًا إليه الخطاب مباشرة، ومن ثمَّ يشكل النص الملغز أسلوبًا حواريًا ذا قيمة فنية، ولعلَّ عزوف الباحثين من دراسة الألغاز الشعرية، يعود إلى فهمهم إليها بأنها تزويق بديعي، غير أن لغتها الشعرية ومضامينها المعنوية تدلُّ على أسلوب التلاعب بالحروف أو الألفاظ ما تكشف عن قدرة الشاعر وتمكنه من أدواته الفنية، ولعلَّ تطبيق منهج نظرية جمالية التلقي على فنٍّ من فنون البلاغة العربية إنما يعطي إشارات عن تحديد المعنى؛ لأنَّ جمالية التلقي لا تنظر إلى النصوص إلا بوصفها بنيات لتوليد المعاني، وإدماج القارئ بالنص؛ …

تبوأت الاستعارة منزلة كبيرة في حقل الدراسات البلاغية لما تؤديه من فعالية في تشكيل الخطابات وهيكلة انسجتها وتحقيق جماليتها فهي ليست مجرد وسيلة لغوية يستخدمها الأدباء ، وإنما هي جزء أساسي من الأسلوب الذي يستخدمه الأديب للتعبير عن كثير من مكنوناته بأسلوب بليغ جميل مؤثر وهذاماوجدناه في خطابات الشيخ الكيلاني الوعظية حيث أسهمت الاستعارة وبشكل فاعل في التعبير عن كل ما أراد الشيخ طرحه في مجال الوعظ و الإرشاد حيث شكلت خطاباته الوعظية بأسلوب الاستعارة لوحات فنية ناطقة غرضها التأثير في المتلقي بياناً و وعظاً وإرشاداً وتذكيراً لذلك رأيت من المفيد أن أُسلط الضوء على بعض من هذه الخطابات بالشرح …

يهدف هذا البحث استقصاء فن الاستعارة في شعر ابن الجياب، وقد تضمن تعريفاً بالاستعارة، انطلاقاً من علاقتها بالمجاز، وتطرق لأقوال العلماء وتقسماتهم للاستعارة، وتناول قضايا التشابه والاختلاف بينها وبين التشبيه، ثم تطرق إلى تقسيماتها، بحسب زوايا النظرإلى مكوناتها، وقد عرَّج على طريقة استعمال الشاعر لهذا الفن، وذلك من خلال إجراءات التحليل والشرح، وكانَّ مصبُّ البحث باتجاه إيجاد العناصر الفنية التي من شأنها بناء الصورة الشعرية المتفردة في شعر الشاعر.

محاولة البحث الجمع بين نظرتين مختلفتين اتجاه المحسنات اللفظية لعلم البديع, وإظهار المنزلة الرفيعة التي تليق بهذا الفن البديعي, وذلك بتسليط الضوء على وظيفته الفنيّة, وقيمته الجماليّة, داخل النص الشعري, والتي لا تقف عند حدود التحسين والتزيين, وإنّما تتعدى إلى إبراز دوره في بيان المعنى, وجمالية اللفظ, وما ينطوي عليه من ايحاءات ودلالات, التي يبثّ الشاعر من خلالها تجربته الشعريّة إلى المتلقي .

يتناول هذا البحث دراسة جزء من الصورة الشعرية في نظم الشيخ الشاعر العلاّمة مرعي بن يوسف الكرمي (ت 1033هـ)، وهو شاعر عالم وموسوعي لديه ما وجدنا من المؤلفات ما فاق المئة مؤلف في مختلف العلوم، فكان له ديوان (الغزل المطلوب في المحب والمحبوب) الذي كان مخطوطاً حتى أصبح ديواناُ شعرياً في عام 2021 بعد تحقيقه. فكان لنا نصيب في دراسة ديوانه في رحاب الأدب وبين صفوف الأدباء وبدورنا كباحثين نتناول ونتفحص ديوان الشاعر ونبرز الفاعلية الصورية والإيحائية في شعره؛ لأنَّ للشعر لوحات من الصور كما للرسام، من خلال الدلالات اللغوية والسياق النصي والبنائي الذي يعرض لنا الصور، فيندمج هذا العلم …

الكرم والبخل في شعر ابن الخياط الدمشقي, أ.د. محمود شلال حسين القيسي, الباحثة/ ميامي حسين جسام
Midad AL-Adab Refereed Quarterly Journal
شكلت دراسة ثنائية( الكرم/البخل), اهمية كبرى, كونها تعد قيمة أقتصادية مهمة, مما عبرت الثنائيات المتضادة عن عمق الواقع الذي عاشه به الشاعر, فقد اتخذت من التضاد وسيلة في منح النص الشعري قوة جمالية وأسلوبية, كاشفاً بذلك عن ماهو مضمر في ذات الشاعر, واظهار علاقات المجتمع المتناقضة, وقيمة المتباينة, لذا, فقد تناولت في هذا البحث ثنائية الكرم والبخل في قصائد الشاعر ابن الخياط, فهي واحدة من اهم الصفات والقيم الخلقية الرفيعة, التي امتازوا بيها العرب عن غيرهم من الامم الاخرى, من اجل تثبيت وتعزيز قيمة الكرم والجود في المجتمع ,وفي المقابل ذلك نفي وترك كل ما يتعلق بقيم البخل المنبوذة .

تأتي أهمية البحث من كون الشاعر مرَّ بأوضاعٍ اجتماعيةٍ مختلفةٍ وعاش حياةً اجتماعية بائسة تحتاج الى تسليط الضوء عليها، وهذا جزء من غاية البحث، وجزء آخر منها هو الوقوف على أهمية وأثر تلك الحياة الاجتماعية على قول الشعر، فالشعر مشاعر وعاطفة وواقع يتأثر به كل شاعر.

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog
Mandatory arbitration clauses in employment contracts are standard, limiting legal remedies available to employees who are sexual harassment and sexual assault victims and serving as a potential barrier to justice. However, the rise of the 2017 #MeToo movement revealed the prevalence of sexual harassment and assault, triggering lawmakers to focus on legal reforms for these areas in the workplace.

Domestic violence incidents impact the daily activities of the law enforcement agencies responsible for responding to these calls for service. Legislators and law enforcement leaders have expended countless hours, staffing, and finances to adequately protect the victims of domestic violence. In Virginia, an essential component of protecting victims of domestic violence involves the referral process, used by law enforcement officers to connect victims of domestic violence to domestic violence advocacy groups. The Code of Virginia and law enforcement agencies receiving accreditation through the Virginia Law Enforcement Professional Standards Commission (VLEPSC) require these referrals. There is available research regarding the referral …

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog
New York’s Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum is currently in litigation regarding the Blue Period painting “Women Ironing” by Pablo Picasso. The painting was originally owned by Karl Adler and his wife Rosi Jacobi. Their heirs filed a suit in New York Supreme Court last week arguing that the painting would not have been sold but for the owner’s duress due to Nazi persecution. The family seeks return of the painting or compensation at the painting’s current market value, estimated at up to $200 million.

What's Love Got To Do With It? Redefining Domestic Violence To Close Federal Firearm Loopholes, Cecilia Shields-Auble
What's Love Got To Do With It? Redefining Domestic Violence To Close Federal Firearm Loopholes, Cecilia Shields-Auble
Maine Law Review
Closing the “boyfriend loophole” by expanding the definition of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence to include the abuse of “dating partners” further entrenches the law into an unworkable quasi-marital framework rooted in an antiquated understanding of domestic violence. The federal firearm prohibition would more effectively target high-risk offenders if 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(33)(A) were revised to eliminate the quasi-marital framework and reflect a modern understanding of the power and control dynamics involved in intimate partner violence. This Comment begins by summarizing the emergence of federal domestic violence law and describing the limitations of the Lautenberg Amendment. It then examines …
Your Biometric Data Is Concrete, Your Injury Is Imminent And Particularized: Articulating A Bipa Claim To Survive Article Iii Standing After Transunion V. Ramirez, Kelsey L. Kenny
Maine Law Review
Biometric data is a digital translation of self which endures in its accuracy for one’s entire lifespan. As integral elements of modern life continue to transition their operations exclusively online, the verifiable “digital self” has become indispensable. The immutable and sensitive nature of biometric data makes it peculiarly vulnerable to misappropriation and abuse. Yet the most frightening is the unknown. For an individual who has had their digital extension-of-self covertly stolen or leaked, the dangers that lie in the technology of the future are innumerable. The Illinois legislature recognized the danger associated with the cavalier collection and handling of biometric …

Our Biggest Fans: Nuisance Immunity For Grid-Scale Wind Energy Projects In Maine, Andrew D. Hersom
Maine Law Review
Global climate change and its attendant impacts threaten to change life on Earth as we know it. The sea level rise that comes with rising temperatures is an issue of particular importance to coastal states like Maine. Thankfully, continued investment in renewable energy technology is beginning to make certain renewable energy sources competitive with their nonrenewable counterparts. This Comment highlights wind energy as a particularly effective option for meeting Maine’s energy needs while significantly reducing the harmful greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. Despite its many benefits, wind energy technology still has its detractors. Wind energy projects (especially …

Contracts For Cohabitating Romantic Partners, Bailey D. Barnes
Maine Law Review
Marriage rates in the United States are at record lows; meanwhile, more couples are choosing to live together outside of marriage. Despite the changing landscape of romantic relationships, the law of nonmarriage has not kept pace. Rather than having a coherent, majority rule approach, the individual states have employed differing methods of providing for property distribution at the end of a long-term unmarried cohabitation. Unfortunately, absent the formal protections offered by marriage for both parties following a divorce, many cohabitants are at risk of suffering inequitable property distribution following the termination of a cohabitation. This Article proposes that states uniformly …

Dabus, An Artificial Intelligence Machine, Invented Something New And Useful, But The Uspto Is Not Buying It, Trevor F. Ward
Maine Law Review
U.S. patent laws are designed to promote science and the useful arts. They grant temporary monopoly rights to inventors in order to incentivize inventive activity. In the United States, patent rights revolve around the inventor. However, what happens when an Artificial Intelligence (AI) machine invents? Who deserves monopoly rights to the invention? Who will be incentivized by such monopolies? Do U.S. laws protect companies’ investments in AI? In 2019, for the first time in history, an AI machine called DABUS was listed as an inventor on two U.S. patent applications. The United States Patent and Trademark Office denied the applications, …
Governance Of Ocean-Based Carbon Dioxide Removal Research Under The United Nations Conventions On The Law Of The Sea, Wil Burns
Maine Law Review
There has been a spate of research in recent years indicating that achievement of the temperature objectives of the Paris Agreement can only be effectuated through both aggressive decarbonization of the global economy and large-scale deployment of so-called carbon dioxide removal (CDR) approaches. While much of the early focus of CDR research was on terrestrial options, such as afforestation, direct air capture, and bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, more recently, many in the scientific and policy community have increasingly focused on potential ocean-based approaches, including ocean fertilization, ocean alkalinity enhancement, macroalgae harvesting, and ocean upwelling and downwelling. However, while …

Primacy In Theory And Application: Lessons From A Half-Century Of New Judicial Federalism, Catherine R. Connors, Connor Finch
Maine Law Review
In his 1977 article, State Constitutions and the Protection of Individual Rights, Justice Brennan famously reminded jurists that our governmental system includes two constitutions applicable to each state, and New Judicial Federalism was born. Since then, state courts have applied their own Bills of Rights using different approaches with varying degrees of enthusiasm. The primacy approach, requiring state courts to consider the state constitution first, and turning to the federal constitution only if needed to resolve the case, is theoretically optimal but inconsistently followed, even in the few jurisdictions professing to adopt that approach. This Article posits that the reason …

Lyria was one of a small handful of women who graduated from a Louisiana law school in the 1930’s. Despite the employment barriers facing female attorneys, she went on to become one of the first female law clerks in both the federal and state judiciary. To date, Lyria’s story has not been told. I have recently discovered, however, that Lyria’s children and grandchildren preserved her letters to her family. They are a treasure trove of information about a woman whose career took her from rural Louisiana to Louisiana’s highest court as well as the post-war ruins of Nazi Germany. The …

The Role Of Legal Studies In Undergraduate Business Curricula And Its Impact On Students' Problem-Solving Skills, Olivia Martucci
Honors Projects in History and Social Sciences
Although the presence of legal studies within undergraduate business curricula is continuously growing, there seems to be a lack of understanding and appreciation for the value that legal studies coursework brings to undergraduate business education. This research aims to determine whether legal studies courses provide undergraduate business students with transferrable non-legal skills, such as problem-solving skills. The goal of this research is to explore the importance of legal studies in undergraduate business curricula by trying to determine if it provides students with valuable skills that can be utilized across disciplines.
