The Phenomenon of Sand Dunes in Contemporary Algerian Poetry and their Role in Promoting Literary Tourism: A Discursive Approach

Abstract

Modern linguistics is considered a raw material that has paved the way for the emergence of critical approaches and their crystallization. Each approach has its unique perspective on creative work, based on established mechanisms. Poetic writing is seen as a playground of words and a scattering of poetic alphabets. The discursive pursuit of poetic texts is another aspect. In this interplay, the world of the text unfolds as a mental adventure where the text remains entwined with its meanings, a moment before the analysis and interpretation carried out by the reader, based on the text's various data and codes that seek to solidify literature's relationship with reality in some way. The phenomenon of sand dunes is considered a gateway to local tourism in Algeria. Therefore, Salim Hamdan relies on it as a fundamental feature in building contemporary Algerian poetic texts, expressing the current demands and commitments. Accordingly, to what extent does contemporary Algerian poetry adhere to the tourism dimension? How did the phenomenon of sand dunes manifest in the poetry?
