Saqi Books An Introduction to Arab Poetics
Book SynopsisPoetry is the quintessence of Arab culture. In this book one of the foremost Arab poets reinterprets a rich and ancient heritage. He examines the oral tradition of the pre-Islamic poetry of Arabia and the relationship between Arabic poetry and the Qur''an, and between poetry and thought. He also assesses the challenges of modernism and the impact of western culture on the Arab poetic tradition. Stimulating in their originality, eloquent in their treatment of a wide range of poetry and criticism, these reflections open up fresh perspectives on one of the world''s greatest - and least explored - literatures.Trade Review'As important a cultural manifesto as any written today.' Edward Said, Independent on Sunday 'The Arab world's greatest living poet has cultivated a garden of language.' New York Times 'Adonis is a writer like Neruda or Marquez.' Geoff Dyer, The Independent ' ... Introduces the reader to a new way of interpreting all poetry, and to many marvellous words that do not have an English equivalent.' Arts Letter

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Poetry
Book SynopsisComprised of contributions from leading international scholars, The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Poetry incorporates political, cultural, and theoretical paradigms that help place poetic projects in their socio-political contexts as well as illuminate connections across the continuum of the Arabic tradition. This volume grounds itself in the present moment and, from it, examines the transformations of the fifteen-century Arabic poetic tradition through readings, re-readings, translations, reformulations, and co-optations. Furthermore, this collection aims to deconstruct the artificial modern/pre-modern divide and to present the Arabic poetic practice as live and urgent, shaped by the experiences and challenges of the twenty-first century and at the same time in constant conversation with its long tradition. The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Poetry actively seeks to destabilize binaries such as that of East-West in contributions that shed light on the interactions of theTable of ContentsPrefaceArabic Poetry in Late Antiquity: The Rāʾiyya of Imruʾ al-QaysPamela KlasovaParody and the Creation of the Muḥdath GhazalAhmad AlmallahDescription of Architecture in Classical Arabic Poetry from the Perspective of Interarts StudiesAkiko SumiAndalusī Heterodoxy and Colloquial Arabic Poetry: “Zajal 145” by Ibn Quzmān (d.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Early Islamic Poetry and Poetics 6 The Formation
Book SynopsisThis volume brings together a set of key studies on classical Arabic poetry (ca. 500-1000 C.E.), published over the last thirty-five years; the individual articles each deal with a different approach, period, genre, or theme. The major focus is on new interpretations of the form and function of the pre-eminent classical poetic genre, the polythematic qasida, or Arabic ode, particularly explorations of its ritual, ceremonial and performance dimensions. Other articles present the typology and genre characteristics of the short monothematic forms, especially the lyrical ghazal and the wine-poem. After thus setting out the full poetic genres and their structures, the volume turns in the remaining studies to the philological, rhetorical, stylistic and motival elements of classical Arabic poetry, in their etymological, symbolic, historical and comparatist dimensions. Suzanne Pinckney Stetkevych''s Introduction places the articles within the context of the major critical and methodological Trade Review'... the collection succeeds and will prove indispensable to those who would venture into this field... there is no gainsaying that usefulness and convenience of having it all in one place, not to mention the expediency of the select bibliography and index. More significant, though, is the impact of this collection: the reader is left with a sense of the immense cultural wealth of the early islamic world, an impression that stands in stark contrast to much of what is said about Islam nowadays. We would do well to remember these aspects of Arabic and Muslim cultural life more frequently. Suzanne Pinckney Stetkevych and the editors of 'The Formation of the Islamic World' have done us a great service in helping us to remember.'

Palgrave MacMillan Us The Poetics of the Obscene in Premodern Arabic Poetry Ibn alHajjaj and Sukhf Ibn alajjj and Sukhf Literatures and Cultures of the Islamic World
Book SynopsisThe book is the first study of the 10th century Iraqi poet Ibn al-Hajjaj who popularized a new genre of obscene and scatological parody (sukhf) and is considered the most obscene poet in Arabic literature. Antoon traces the genealogy of this fascinating genre in and examines its rise by placing it in its sociopolitical context.Trade Review"Exciting and vital to the unearthing of new trajectories for the Arabic literary tradition . . . [Antoon's book] is a timely and uplifting work, which must be taken seriously and built upon." - Journal of the Society for Contemporary Thought and the Islamicate World 'Sinan Antoon is among the few scholars who in recent years have embarked on the unprejudiced study of what in Arabic is called muj?n or sukhf. It is not surprising that until recently in the West, and still in most Islamic countries, the study of obscenity and scatology was hampered by moral and religious scruples, aided by aesthetic prejudice. This makes the present study all the more welcome and important. Scholarly and thorough, it is also readable (if one can stomach the poems with their unstoppable outpouring of filth), written in an accessible style, neither marred by the excessive use of jargon nor suffering from being clothed in a straightjacket of Theory. The numerous translations of poems are reliable and accompanied by the Arabic text in transliteration.' - Geert Jan van Gelder, Laudian Professor of Arabic, University of Oxford, UK "This groundbreaking study opens up for the first time an important and fascinating, but heretofore studiously avoided, aspect of classical Arabic literature." - Everett K.

Penguin Books Ltd Islamic Mystical Poetry
Book SynopsisWritten from the ninth to the twentieth century, these poems represent the peak of Islamic Mystical writing, from Rabia Basri to Mian Mohammad Baksh. Reflecting both private devotional love and the attempt to attain union with God and become absorbed into the Divine, many poems in this edition are imbued with the symbols and metaphors that develop many of the central ideas of Sufism: the Lover, the Beloved, the Wine, and the Tavern; while others are more personal and echo the poet''s battle to leave earthly love behind. These translations capture the passion of the original poetry and are accompanied by an introduction on Sufism and the common themes apparent in the works. This edition also includes suggested further reading.

C Hurst & Co Publishers Ltd Poetry and Politics in the Modern Arab World
Book SynopsisThe representation in poetic form of political events and ideas in the Arab world since the nineteenth century is this book's principal theme. Atef Alshaer demonstrates an integral connection between poetry and politics, reflecting the holistic character of Arab culture as well as the longstanding embodiment of poetry in the socio-political life of the Arabs. The shared Arabic language and common cultural heritage that Arabs have encompass and mirror widespread Arab concerns about their societies and their cultural and political development. Poetry as the essence of language served as an illuminating, and often mobilising, medium of expression which brought the tensions and aspirations of each age to the fore. Beginning with the colonial empires and their colonisation of the Arab world, Alshaer illuminates the perennial concerns of major Arab poets with their societies. He discusses the poetic representation of the end of the Ottoman Empire, the onset of Arab nationalism, French and British colonialism, Palestine and the struggle against Zionism, as well as Arab inter-relationships, the emergence of Islamism and Islamist movements, and finally the Arab Spring.Each chapter high- lights the mainstream historical, political and intellectual currents of the time and interprets them alongside poems and poets that evoked and consecrated them.Trade Review'By reading Alshaer's analysis of poetry under the Ottoman Empire and colonialism the reader can draw many parallels between the Arab World then and today ... [the book] offers not only a detailed insight into the poets of the time, but the politics of the time.' * Middle East Monitor *

Everyman Arabic Poems
Book SynopsisThe Arabic poetic legacy is as vast as it is deep, spanning a period of fifteen centuries in regions from Morocco to Iraq. As a unifying principle, editor Marlé Hammond has selected eighty poems reflecting desire and longing of various kinds: for the beloved, for the divine, for the homeland, and for change and renewal. Poets include the legendary pre-Islamic warrior 'Antara Ibn Shaddad, medieval Andalusian poet Ibn Zaydun, the wandering poet Al-A’sha, and the influential Egyptian Romantic Ahmad Zaki Abu Shadi. Here too are literary giants of the past century: Khalil Jibran, author of the bestselling The Prophet; popular Syrian poet Nizar Qabbani; Palestinian feminist Fadwa Tuqan; Mahmoud Darwish, bard of occupation and exile; acclaimed iconoclast Adonis, and more. In their evocations of heroism, nostalgia, mysticism, grief, and passion, the poems gathered here transcend the limitations of time and place.

University of Notre Dame Press The Hunt in Arabic Poetry
Book SynopsisAmong the world's major literary traditions, Arabic poetry is perhaps unique in that the theme of the hunt runs in a continuous, if uneven, current from the pre-Islamic, oral tradition, dating as far back as the fifth century CE, through the coming of Islam in the seventh century and the Umayyad and ''Abbasid caliphates, ultimately serving as a classical substrate for the radical Modernism of the twentieth century. This striking continuity of theme and motif of the pursuerthe hunter, companions, his steed, hounds, or falconand the pursued, whether the prey be oryx, onager, gazelle, hare, quail, or fox, is subject to dramatic transformations of poetic genre, structure, and sensibility throughout the arc of Arab cultural history. Through elegant translations and compelling interpretations, Jaroslav Stetkevych brings this dynamic Arabic tradition fully into the purview of contemporary cultural and humanistic studies. In the chapters of Part I of The Hunt in Arabic Poetry,Trade Review"Jaroslav Stetkevych's The Hunt in Arabic Poetry is an astounding achievement. Not only does he map the genealogy of the hunt as a poetic preoccupation with a number of thematic and semiotic markers and mechanisms, he also draws a history of cultural complexity through significant temporal signposts that happen to reflect on Arab political and social life. In the end, reading his book is no less than studying Arab cultural history through one significant poetic endeavor that distinguishes it among other cultures." —Muhsin al-Musawi, Columbia University"In The Hunt in Arabic Poetry, Jaroslav Stetkevych argues for creative evolution and adaption of a little known and little understood genre. He demonstrates how Arabic poets took a pre-Islamic theme found in the rahil (quest) section of the Arabic ode and transformed it into a powerful rhetoric about wanting and pursuing, evoking the lyricism of yearning, and beyond that to metalanguage. The translations are consistently elegant, mood sensitive, and works of literature in their own right." —Samer M. Ali, University of Michigan"Jaroslav Stetkevych traces the development of the hunting theme in Arabic poetry from its remote beginnings in pre-Islamic Arabia to the present. He shows how certain social and historical factors, predominant in each period, helped to shape the poet's compositions, making them highly original with respect to what preceded them. Stetkevych's book is destined to become a lasting and most welcome contribution to Arabic literary criticism, and one that illuminates a theme central to the study and appreciation of Arabic poetry." —James T. Monroe, emeritus, University of California, Berkeley"The Hunt in Arabic Poetry is a masterful meditation not only upon the hunt motif but also upon the deeper poetic structures in which the hunt motif is embedded, through which it emerges, and with which it is not infrequently in tension. Throughout this book, which readers interested in Arabic poetry may find themselves coming back to again and again, Stetkevych follows his theoretically challenging and elegantly written arguments with close readings of specific poems that are presented in both Arabic and in the author's meticulously faithful and materially vivid translations. The achievement of The Hunt in Arabic Poetry mirrors that of his earlier book, Zephyrs of Najd, which engaged the Arabic Nasib—the elegiac remembrance of the lost beloved—with the same qualities of theoretical depth, conceptual sweep, and brilliant close readings." —Michael Sells, John Henry Barrows Professor of Islamic History and Literature, University of Chicago“Throughout, Jaroslav Stetkevych allows the poems to speak for themselves both in their original Arabic texts and in his extraordinarily poetic English translations, as he adeptly and patiently guides us to a deeper understanding of the tardiyyah, one of the classical genres of Arabic poetry." —Journal of Arabic Literature"Stetkevych traces his theme in detail—illustrating with Arabic and English versions—showing the subtle evolution of tone, structure and cultural meanings of the hunt motif." — Choice
