Описание: THE TWO GREATEST EGYPTIAN POETS Ibn al-Farid & Ahmed Shawqi SELECTED POEMS Translation & Introduction Paul Smith IBN AL-FARID, an Egyptian poet (1181-1235), is the undisputed master of Islamic mystical (Sufi) poetry in Arabic. He is not only ta poet but a Perfect Master (Qutub) a God-realized soul, and it is his journey to unity with God he reveals in probably the longest qasida (ode) in Arabic (761 couplets), his famous The Mystics Progress. The other poem for which he is most known is his Wine Poem. Although these poems have been translated into English before, this is the first time in the correct rhyme of the qasida and in clear, concise, modern English. Included in the Introduction are chapters on his Life & Work, The Qasida in Arabic, Previous Qasidas by Master Arab Poets that would have influenced him and one who he influenced, The Perfect Master (Qutub), and the Wine Poem and The Mystics Way. Selected Bibliography. AHMED SHAWQI (1869 - 1932) was the great Arabic Poet-Laureate; an Egyptian poet and dramatist who pioneered the modern Egyptian literary movement, most notably introducing the genre of poetic epics to the Arabic literary tradition. In 1927 he was crowned by his peers the Prince of Poets in recognition of his considerable contributions to the literary field. Shawqis work can be categorized into three main periods during his career: The first coincides with the period during which he occupied a position at the court of the Khedive (Viceroy), consisting of eulogies to the Khedive: praising him or supporting his policy. The second comprised the period of his exile in Spain. During this period his feeling of nostalgia and sense of alienation directed his poetic talent to patriotic poems on Egypt as well as the Arab world. The third stage occurred after his return from exile: during that period he became preoccupied with the history of Ancient Egypt and Islam. He wrote his famous Sufi poem, in praise of the Prophet Muhammad (here fully translated in qasida form). The maturation of his poetic style was reflected in his plays (including his Majnun-Layla). Includeed are remarkable poems for children and others in the correct forms. Introduction on his Life & Times & poems & his Museum. Large Format Paperback 7 x 10 369 pages.
