- Poetry 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 pre-Islamic Arabian poetry, as well as the relationship between Arabic poetry and the Qur'an, and between poetry and thought. Adonis 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. 'The most intellectually stimulating of several Arab books of unique literary distinction in fine translation. Translated with uncommon intelligence. As important a cultural manifesto as any written today.' Edward Said, Independent on Sunday 'Adonis's only prose work available in English is this book.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Poetics and orality in the Jāhiliyya -- Poetics and the influence of the Qur'ān -- Poetics and thought -- Poetics and modernity.
