Syrian child ‘mental ideas about war in Hossein Habash's rssistance poem

The components of resistance in children's literature are the most influential literary genre of any culture and nation. Children are one of the most vulnerable members of any society. Currently, due to the situation in Syria, Syrian children are facing many crises and social tensions; Hence, contemporary Syrian literature is also tied to it, and every poet puts freedom, resistance and oppression of children at the center of his poems. Hussein Habash is one of the Syrian poets whose beating heart could not stand the invasion of the souls and bodies of children, and he immersed the pen in the essence of his poetry to reflect this oppression in his poems. In this article, We intend to use a descriptive-analytical method to analyze the mental ideas of the Syrian child about the war and its effects on his soul and psyche in the collection of poems "Malak Tayer" based on the most characteristic concepts of resistance. The findings of the research indicate that the poet has reflected the element of child and the psychological effects of war on the child in the most artistic way in his poem, using the thought of time and with his leap towards the future. It illustrates a bright future for society by relying on the next generation. Another consequence of this article is that the poet depicts the psychological trauma that the child has suffered in the form of ironic words and concepts. Secondly, in depicting the oppression of the child and the pure world of children, he has used symbolic games and overturning the interpretation, and also the characters present in the poet's poetry are more of an external example than their unreality.
