Summary |
"This book represents the most sustained investigation of the aesthetics of Anti-Colonialism in modern Arabic poetry. Through painstaking analyses of a selection of odes by four leading twentieth-century poets, Ahmad Shawqi, Ma'ruf al-Rusafi, Badr Shakir al-Sayyab and 'Abd al-Wahhab al-Bayati, the book chronicles the evolution of a distinct poetics that sought to maintain the integrity of the qasidah without circumventing its historical moment." "It will be of particular interest to scholars and students of Arabic literature, Islamic and Middle Eastern studies, Postcolonial studies, Comparative literature, and Cultural studies."--BOOK JACKET.
