الملخص

The paper opens with the introduction which presents a background about the reasons behind the appearance of certain characteristics for Modern Poetry as a literary genre in Modern World. It discusses the circumstances and environment of the movements that absolutely have the great impact on developing this genre. The introduction also sheds light on the role of some Modern Poets who have participated , through their writings , in promoting Modern Poetry. Then , section one comes to define Modern Poetry , discussing Modernism and its influence upon Modern Poetry ; how the modern reader perceive Modern Poetry by the modern writers'  themes and messages for the public. Some examples are also given in order to reinforce what has previously been discussed. As for section two , the main characteristics of Modern Poetry are analyzed as far as Modern Literature is concerned including poetry. This section revolves round how Modern poets focus on applying the elements of some features to their poetry appropriately in a common way ; so the reader, later, becomes conscious of the messages of the poems. Modern Poets identify these characteristics for a purpose. They study their reader's mind and the way he or she judges ideas  , which is accordingly a good base for poets in order to write manageable poems to such readers. Mind plays a decisive  role in writing poems for the technological evolution of the modern world and people's changing life system. This does not , necessarily,  mean that Modern Poetry goes far beyond traditional techniques. Many Modern poets are still holding the traditional style and mixing the modern to the old in one poetic form. Emotions  and imagination , on the other hand , have a position in some modern poems too. Sometimes  , poets gather mind , heart  , imagination , sensibility , and materialism in one place for a certain message in the poem. Some poems are selected for analysis in this section. Finally, the conclusion sums up the result of the study. Going through the characteristics of Modern Poetry may cause confusion because of complexity , however , it is a reliable source to tackle and discuss serious issues. In fact , Modern Poetry is found to be a good means to change society and heal many wounds that many modern societies suffer from.
