Author(s) Saimina Siddiqui

Abstract Reflection of Nature in the Poetic Works of Pakistani Female Poets Figurative language is one of the essentials of literary works in general, but particularly in poetry, metaphorical expression is key part of the literary stylistics. It not only beautifies the expression but contributes in increasing the depth and shades of meanings. Poets use different ways to reflect nature in different cultures. In eastern poetry it is mostly used to reflect different social, psychological and spiritual themes. The research work under consideration is an attempt to find and critically analyze how Pakistani poetesses used nature to depict their social, romantic and aesthetic themes. In three chapters, each including critical analysis of three prominent poetesses’ woks under each theme, nine poetesses in total have been chosen as representative sample. After introductory and basic discussions in the first chapter, next three chapters includes social, romantic and aesthetic angles of reflection of nature in the poetic works of selected poetesses respectively followed by finding, conclusion and recommendations. Methodology of the research work is based on historical method and content analysis. The research concludes at two basic points, firstly the poetesses have various attitudes in using images from nature ranging from philosophical to mere imagery representation. Secondly, it is different from use of images of nature by male poets in a sense that their expressions are mostly more inclined to philosophical and spiritual aspects.
