“Post-Nakba, Post-Auschwitz Poetics”: Transcending Narratives of Affliction in Mahmoud Darwish’s and Yehuda Amichai’s Poetry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Palestinians and Israelis are increasingly engaged in a “distasteful competition over who suffered most” (Polonsky and Michlic 2004, 9), producing nationalist discourses that hinge on the heroic sublimation of their victimhood. Mahmoud Darwish and Yehuda Amichai offer alternative (poetic) discourses that transcend historical and social zones of contestation to posit universal humanism as a viable ethical option in face of religious and political divides. The later poetry of Darwish and Amichai transcends the heroic glorification of victimhood into an assertion of the humanity of both enemy and victim; hence, deconstructing the mutually exclusive identity formation of “perpetrator” and “perpetrated” and acknowledging the universality of the human experience. This paper attempts to identify a resonance between Darwish and Amichai over challenging the binaries and exclusive claims generated by victim discourses, and the repercussion of such “political” and “aesthetic” stance.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
