Introduction to Arab Poetics Adonis
Poetry is the quintessence of Arab culture. 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. In this book one of the foremost Arab poets reinterprets a rich and ancient heritage.
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. He also assesses the challenges of modernism and the impact of western culture on the Arab poetic tradition.
