The Jews, who had been living on the Iberian peninsula from the first cen­ tury, had welcomed and even helped the Muslim conquerors in the eighth century. They saw them as their liberators since they had been oppressed by the Visigoth rulers. A second peculiarity was that Jews were not confined to certain profes­ sions but were to be found in all walks of life: among them were wage labourers, artisans, merchants and landowners. There were even exclusively Jewish cities such as Lucena and Granada. But perhaps most important for the development of Hebrew literature was the fact that there were Jews serving in high offices at Muslim courts. They often acted as Maecenases for Jewish scholarship and ait. 1 I use the term Hebrew Andalusian poetry in contrast with Arabic Andalusian poetry.

Both forms spoken language, to be replaced first by Romance and later by vernacular Arabic. are also used in elegies. The themes and motifs of these elegies can be traced back Inspired by the methods of the Arab grammarians who studied the Classical to the sixth century poetry of the Arabian peninsula.

This thesis provides a historical background and a brief literary survey that helps contextualize al-Rafii, the period, and the area he came from. AI-Rafii played an important role in the two literary and intellectual schools during the Arabic literary revival, which extended from the French expedition (1798-1801) to around the middle of the twentieth century. These two schools, known as the Old and the New, vied to shape the literature and thought of Egypt and other Arab countries. The former, led by al-Rafii, promoted a return to classical Arabic styles and tried to strengthen the Islamic identity of Egypt. The latter called for cutting off Egypt from its Arabic history and rejected the dominance and continuity of classical Arabic language. AI-Rafii contributed to the Revival by supporting a line ofthought that has not been favored by pro-Westernization governments, which made his legacy almost forgotten. Deriving his literature from the canon of Arabic language, culture, and history, al-Rafii produced a literature based on a revived version of classical Arabic literature, an accomplishment which makes him unique among modem Arab writers.

Although this theme has been examined individually in both Arabic and Hebrew literatures, to the best of my knowledge no detailed comparative analysis has previously been undertaken. Therefore, this study sets out to compare and contrast the two literatures and cultures arising out of their co-existence in al-Andalus in the middle ages. The main characteristics of the Arabic poetry of this period are to a large extent the product of the political and social upheavals that took place in al-Andalus.

  • Ab Tamm M's Contribution to Abb Sid Gazal Poetry

    Ab Tamm M's Contribution to Abb Sid Gazal Poetry

    AB� TAMM�M'S CONTRIBUTION TO �ABB�SID GAZAL POETRY When Abu Tammam is mentioned, three things come to mind: the col- lection of the Ifamäsa, the badi-style and the madih-poems, because it was this genre to which Abu Tammam devoted most of his verses. Therefore, western scholars label Abu Tammam as a "neo-classical" poet along with al-Buhturi and al-Mutanabbi because, unlike Abu Nuwds, Abu Tammam did not contribute to the "modern" genres, such as, e.g., wine and love poetry. While this is quite true in the case of wine poetry, it is not true at all in the case of the gazal genre. Of course, the number of lines of Abu Tam- mdm's gazal poems is much smaller than the number of lines devoted to madih poems. But this is simply due to the fact that gazal poems are much shorter than madih poems. If we take the number of poems, the proportion of madih to gazal turns out to be rather surprising: the dlwan1 contains 132 gazal poems compared to 175 madih poems, so the difference is not so great. In fact, as far as we know, there is no poet between Abu Nuwas and Halid al-Katib who has left behind a comparable amount of gazal verse. This comparatively high number of gazal verse in the dlwän of Abu Tam- mam corresponds to the importance this poet is given in the later antholo- gies of love poetry. Let us take as an example the first part of the Kitab az- Zahra of Ibn Däwüd al-Isfahani.2 In this book, the most often quoted poets are al-Buhturi and Abu Tammam.

    Reading of Old People to Poetic Text 'The Book of the Balance As an Example'

    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 15, 2020 READING OF OLD PEOPLE TO POETIC TEXT 'THE BOOK OF THE BALANCE AS AN EXAMPLE' Mr.: Khalid Abid Salih Dr. Ehab Majeed Mahmoud Anbar University Anbar University College of Education for Humanities College of Education for Humanities Received: 14 March 2020 Revised and Accepted: 8 July 2020 Abstract: This research investigates the reading of the old people to poetic text in the book of Balancing of Al-Amidi (Al- Mouwazna) because it has a great importance among critic books. This research has monitored the most important rhetorical and critical readings on the evidences that were chosen, because the opinions of the ancient people were different, due to their departure from the prevailing custom, and this is why most of them were regarded as defects of poetry. Some of critics even went on to say that these reading caused the corruption of the language. However, it can be seen that many of these readings criticized or attacked Abu Tammam, due to the movement of the struggle between the old and the new that appeared in that era However, the researcher provesthat getting out of the ordinary and the frequent use of aesthetic is not considered a defect for the poet. This is clear in the difference of the reading of the same verse from one critic to another, and in many cases the refusal of the verse is due to getting out of the old patterns. Those critics who reproached Abu Tammam for his verses do not want to acknowledge his genius, or they did not understand the poetic mentality of his era that it differs from its predecessor.

For this purpose, Arabic ornamentalist thinking is traced from the third century A.H. (the ninth century A.D.) to the seventh century A.H. (the thirteenth century A.D.). This is not to say, however, that the seventh century marks the end of such thinking in Arabic literary theory, but that at that time the Arabic literary theory, and the theory of metaphor, was developed into fixtures with an increasing emphasis given to form over content and the art of verbal expression in general. Inordinate attention was given to ornate style, and rhetoric became an arena for displaying verbal acrobatics.
