Abstract
This study addresses the phenomenon of structural displacement in the poem of Lamiyat Al Arab by Al Shanfara. Four aspects of this stylistic phenomenon are addressed:
· Advancement and deferment
· Ellipsis
· Tense and Pronoun shifting
The study used the analytical descriptive methodology to explore stylistic displacement in the aforementioned aspects, based on Stylistics. The aim is to show the clear influence of qualitativism and displacement on the poem in terms of its aesthetics, semantic structure, and poetic imagery.
