Abstract This academic research paper investigates the aesthetics of the poetic image across selected models of Arabic popular and classical poetry. It seeks to elucidate the manifestations of these poetic images by examining diverse rhetorical tropes and devices as warranted by the scope of this inquiry, including metaphor, simile, metonymy, figurative tropology , rhetorical repetition, rhetorical partitioning, and intertextuality/quotation, in addition to the polished scientific-literary style.The central problematic of this study revolves around the following inquiry: What are the fundamental functional mechanisms of the poetic image in selected models of popular and classical Arabic poetic discourse, and what are their literary and linguistic effects? The study concludes that the poetic image maintains a powerful, pervasive presence across both popular and classical poetic traditions, significantly amplifying their aesthetic resonance, suggestive force, and rhetorical impact.
