Abstract
Thanatos is one of the parties to the structure of Freud's psychological conflict, which is a conflict between two human tendencies. According to this theory, this conflict is based on two types of instincts: the death instinct (Thanatos), which is the instinct that leads man to oppression and destruction, and the life instinct (Eros), which is the instinct whose activities are to preserve egoism and self-protection. Targets. Qasim Mohammad Majid Al-Saedi, a contemporary Iraqi poet, has gone through poetic experiences between life and death. He grew up in the flames of war. Like all Iraqis, he tasted disasters and drank the cup of death, and the actions engraved pain and alienation in his heart. Hence, it is natural for his texts to be known by the scent of death. The Iraq dark situation becomes overwhelming, and death has been obscured everything surrounding it so that death has become a central theme in most of his poems, including “Days of an Extinct Man”. Since, in Freud's view, wars are nothing but manifestations of oppressive behavior, the researcher chose this divan to adapt Freud's theory about Thanatos so that they could reveal the images of Thanatos and its representation and discover the poet's view about death and its angles.
