The Arabic Prose Poem : Poetic Theory and Practice, Hardback Book

The Arabic Prose Poem : Poetic Theory and Practice Hardback

Part of the Edinburgh Studies in Modern Arabic Literature series

Hardback

Out of stock

Description

Huda J. Fakhreddine explores the 'new genre' of the Arabic prose poem as a poetic practice and a critical lens.

This poetic form gave rise to a profound, contentious and continuing debate about Arabic poetry: its definition, its limits and its relation to its readers.

Fakhreddine examines the history of the prose poem, its claims of autonomy and distance from its socio-political context, and the anxiety and scandal it generated.
