까씨다의 운율체계에 관한 연구

Abstract

The eldest form of poetical speech in Arabia was saj‘as we should say ‘rhymed prose’. Later on out of saj‘was evolved the most ancient of the Arabian metres, which is known by the name of Rajaz. After that Qasi:dah was designed and became the most medium during pre-Islamic period and Islamic period. For 8 A.D. from a study of pre-Islamic and early Islamic poetry, al-Khali:l defined the fifteen meters( and later added one meter by al-Akhfash). Each of the meters dictates a line length which will be unvaried through poem. The line itself, divided into two balanced parts, or hemistiches is the basis of the musical unity of the traditional poem. And each hemistich is divided into an equal numbers of syllables and accents. Patterned repetitions of these syllables and accents compose the poetic foot, or tafilah. Each meter was given a name to designate its nature, for example al-Ka:mil ‘the perfect’ for its satisfying equilibrium, al-Rajaz ‘trembling in camels’ knees’ and so on. And the rhyme completes a musical unit at the end of each line, and plays a significant role in sustaining the music from one line to another. In some cases, the rhyme serves as a binding agent in the completion of an idea.
