Book excerpt: Though the characteristics of pre-Islamic ghazal have often been summarily discussed, its development and evolution in the early period of Islam and the Umayyad age have not hitherto received the attention they deserve and it is hoped that this thesis will form a contribution to the subject and to the study of Arabic literature generally. It is claimed, despite objections which have been raised, that pre-Islamic poetry is authentic. This study shows that pagan ghazal reflected the life of its composers, their environment and the social life of the time. It was composed by people whose personality was not divided by religion into soul and body; who understood love as youthful dalliance, who did not separate it from pleasure, and who enjoyed it as much as their desert, tribal life, and lack of culture allowed. Islam brought about great changes. As far as emotional life was concerned, it became richer, deeper, and more intense. Conversly it brought about a strict morality which stopped the development of ghazal for a while. Thereafter ghazal could not begin developing again before the Omayyad period when the grasp of religion relaxed somewhat. Then the traditional ghazal flourished again over the Arabian country, except in Hijaz where wealth, idleness, and particular political and social conditions gave birth to the Omarit ghazal which sacrificed true love for pleasure, and united music to poetry. As a reaction against this tendency and as a compromise between love and religion, the 'Udhri ghazal came to life. Its authors took a sacrificial pleasure in unrequited love. These and other features are illustrated and discussed. This study, in a way, shows the development of women's status before and after Islam and the development of the emotional life of the Arabs during the three early periods of their history.

Download or read book Early Islamic Poetry and Poetics written by Suzanne Pinckney Stetkevych and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 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 trajectories of the field and in doing so demonstrates the increasing integration of Arabic literary studies into contemporary humanistic scholarship. The Selected Bibliography complements the Introduction and the Articles to offer the reader a full overview of the past generation of Western literary and critical scholarship on classical Arabic poetry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Early Islamic Poetry and Poetics, Suzanne Stetkevych presents a selection of the formative studies of classical Arabic poetry of the past thirty-five years, a period that has witnessed the increasing integration of classical Arabic poetry into the contemporary humanistic disciplines. For the qasida, the Arabic heroic and then courtly ode, the selected studies engage orality theory, Structuralism, ritual theory, myth, gender, ekphrastic and interarts theory, speech act and performance theory, to produce an aesthetics and sociology of poetic form. Works on the ghazal, the wine-poem, and other lyric forms reveal their sociological, psychological, structural, and thematic distinction from, and relation to, the dominant qasida-form. Stetkevych's Introduction contextualizes the selected articles in a concise critical and bibliographical essay on the major achievements and trajectories of the field.

Book excerpt: First published in 2005. Arabic literature has a distinguished tradition of bacchanals but none are so consistently entertaining or explicit or iconoclastic as those of Abu Nuwas al_hasan ibn Hani al-Hakami (c. 756-c.815), the 'bad boy' of Abbasid poetry. In his khamriyyat, Abu Nuwas offers a glimpse of the hedonistic and dissipated world he inhabited: the world of Baghdad high society at the zenith of the Abbasid caliphate. Yet there is also a modern and up-to-date feel about his poetry that makes it ideal for presentation to an English-speaking readership, some twelve centuries after his death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of literary Arabic describes the evolution of Arabic poetry and prose in the context of music, ritual performance, the arts and architecture. The thousands-of-years-old language is perhaps more highly developed and refined than any other on earth. This book focuses on what is unique about Arabic compared to other major languages of the world (Greek, Latin, Hebrew, English and Spanish) and how the distinct characteristics of Arabic took shape at various points in its history. The book provides a cultural background for understanding social and political institutions and religious beliefs--more influenced by the rhythms and depths of poetic language than other cultures--in the Middle East today.
