ABSTRACT

The poetic methodology of Raw image poetry is a metonymic principle of anti-metaphor. The language system of Raw image poetry is a narrative because it is a language system based on metonymy. Objects appearing in a work are proximate things to time and space. Each of those objects is not borrowed for the explanation of a certain notion (object), but it is an associative product of one phase. These objects have metonymic meanings that are not as a confrontational notion but as an associated notion. The metonymic system of such Raw image poetry is different from the existing concept of metonymy. The existing concept of metonymy involves the indicating function while harboring a proximity concept. The indicating function may be rather more dominant than proximity; however, metonymy in Raw image poetry has lost such an indicating function and has only proximity. To put it differently, whereas an existing metonymy indicates an object through a characteristic image selected by an author, metonymy in Raw image poetry is to prompt a reader to materialize the characteristic view of an object through various enumerated images.
