“…In addition, the Arab and Islamic nations at the time of the issuance of the collection have encountered inevitable events that create a world of connection between the old and the modern. There is no doubt that the poet tried to choose from the characters of history what corresponds to the nature of his ideas, issues, and concerns at that time ( Zayed, 2006;Mahmood et al, 2022) Among the most important of these figures that the poet summoned are: the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, "Al-Muthanna bin Haritha", Khalid bin Al-Walid "Saif Allah Al-Maslool", "Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas", "Tariq bin Ziyad", and many others. He says in the poem "Do not prepare my shroud": Do not prepare my shroud; I haven't died yet!…”

INTRODUCTIONIn many of its contemporary experiences, Arabic poetry absorbed the spirit of development and modernization. The contemporary poem, in many of its aspects, was loaded with a new vision that fits the spirit of the age intellectually and creatively. However, it could not dispense with the heritage data that poets adopted. It was given an expressive, suggestive, and semantic energy through heritage sounds, with what it added of artistic originality . Since the 1970s, Arab poets seek to use poetry as a tool for expressing the simple human experience, through possibilities, correspondence of the senses, reliance on symbolic structures and symbolic colors, the images that represent the internal symbol that is sometimes ambiguous. One of the most important stages of it is projecting the old events onto the contemporary. There have been several combined and interrelated factors behind the prevalence of the phenomenon of recalling the heritage character in our contemporary Arab poetry and behind the regression of our contemporary poet to the inheritance in general so that it is not possible to separate them. The heritage, with all its historical dimensions and cultural load, constituted a form of connection to the heritage, and a fertile spring to which contemporary poets returned to be inspired by their artistic images and poetic imaginations to document the relations of the present generations with the previous ones and to develop a sense in the recipient and make him feel that he is not cultivating roots, prompting them to do so by an intertwined set of cultural, artistic and Public factors. It is difficult to definitively separate them and to set precise boundaries for the area of influence of each of them and to be sure of the point at which the impact of this factors ends and the effect of the other starts (Benyo et al., 2022;Khan et al., 2021). Perhaps, the most prominent of these poets in Saudi poetry is Dr. Ghazi Al-Gosaibi whose poems record his influence by the ancient heritage, especially the Arab heritage related to the issues of the nation. He is mixed with the poet's tenderness, leading to deep connotations. We passed on some of what we mourned and shared a sense of his bitterness in remembering the days of immortals and symbols that generations have nourished throughout history. The poet employed symbols as words or narrations, or symbols on which the Arab character was built and developed! In his invocations of traditional characters, he did not summon any of the traditional personalities except those that were related to himself, his experiences, and the issues of his time. These characters were diverse to

Background Especially over the last decades, the use of cinema in the English as a foreign language (EFL) class has been gaining momentum. Although this interest has resulted in a complex body of research, no review to date had aimed to systematically map out (i) the pedagogical guidelines available for English teachers to implement films in class; (ii) the perceptions of EFL teachers and learners on the educational use of films; and (iii) the impact of cinema-based EFL on students’ learning, pertinent aspects as they contribute to deactivate instructors’ reported reluctance to use films as a proper teaching material. Thus, a systematic literature review has been conducted along the three previously-mentioned research questions with the aim of highlighting in a comprehensive manner the robust pedagogical value of cinema in EFL contexts. Methods A systematic search was carried out in Web of Science, ERIC, MLA International Bibliography, Education Database, and Scopus, which were last consulted on 2 December, 2022. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, which covered journal papers written in English, peer-reviewed, published in open-access, and focusing on the exploitation of films for the teaching of English as a foreign language. Following the search and selection stages, a coding scheme was established, and the authors conducted a thematically based qualitative analysis to answer the research questions. Reliability was tested to check the agreement rate among the researchers. Findings Of the 416 sources found, 44 were eligible. Twenty-five percent of the selected references consist of theoretical or practical methodological orientations for the implementation of films in the EFL class, 16% of the sources explore EFL teachers’ and students’ perceptions on the educational use of films, and the remaining 59% of the references tap into the impact of cinema-based EFL on students’ learning. The results revealed that more informed guidelines on the exploitation of this resource are needed, that both instructors and teachers have a great attitude towards this method, and that films provide EFL learners with linguistic, intercultural, and motivational benefits. Interpretation On a general note, scholars have adopted a narrow focus when exploring cinema-based English teaching since they only address some of its benefits and they have mostly concentrated on the University educational context. Specific research gaps are highlighted in relation to each research question, and avenues for further research are proposed. Finally, pedagogical implications for the educational use of cinema in the English class are provided.
