Beschreibung
This timely book critically evaluates the life, work and milieu of the Tunisian poet, Abu al-Qasim al-Shabbi (1909-1934), providing translations and detailed commentaries around his seminal work "e;al-Khayal al-Shi?ri ?inda al-?Arab"e; ("e;Arabic Poetic Imagination"e;).The volume delves into the profound essence of one of Tunisia's most iconic poets, a seminal figure in Arab literary modernism, celebrated for his fervent and transformative verses that continue to inspire audiences worldwide, far surpassing the boundaries of the Arab-speaking realm. This book not only presents meticulous translations of al-Shabbi's significant poetic works, but also analyses the recurring themes and styles that define his oeuvre, offering insights into his lasting impact. The book contextualises al-Shabbi within the socio-political turbulence of early 20th century Tunisia, a period marked by profound changes that shaped his artistic outlook. It explores his deep engagement with both romantic and modernist motifs, seamlessly weaving together elements of nationalism, existentialist conflict, and a steadfast vision for a liberated Arab world. Furthermore, the critical commentaries in the book illuminate the array of poets and philosophical concepts that al-Shabbi references, directing readers to additional resources on both Arab and Western literary figures he discusses, enriching our appreciation of his intellectual interplay and deepening our understanding of his scholarly pursuits.This volume will be of pivotal interest for scholars, students and academics of Modern and Classical Arabic Literature, as well as those with an interest in these topic areas more generally.
