As such he has been able to bring equilibrium and decorum to poetry in crisis, reviving faith in the possibility of happiness and emotional fulfillment.Yet he is also moved to anger by the forces of evil around him, and the opposing poles of exaltation and rage, of agony and ecstasy, describe his unique experiment.A man of his times and of all times, he is by far the most popular poet in the Arab world.Author by: Language: en Publisher by: Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 58 Total Download: 882 File Size: 43,7 Mb Description: AbstractThe subject of this dissertation is the life achievement of Syrian poet Nizar Qabbani (1923-1998).
The study follows two tracks, one literary focused on the poetry and biography of the poet, and one historical focused on the concurrent political and social developments in the Arab world in the twentieth century. The two tracks contextualize and elucidate each other to form a mega-narrative of Arab life in modern times. ![]() ![]() When using Fixed Files make sure to use a Firewall which controls outgoing traffic, as some games call back to report the use of these modified files The narrative begins by investigating the intellectual world in which Nizar grew up, continues on to examine his unique personal and familial makeup as well as the social and political context of the times, then proceeds to analyze his poetic achievement as it unfolded. In so doing, a picture emerges of the Arab experience in modern times as reflected in Nizars own creative experience and tumultuous life. The narrative concentrates initially on Syria, more specifically on Damascus, being the birthplace and the breeding ground where the poets character was first shaped. Although a chronological line threads through the work starting from the poets birth in 1923 to his passing in 1998, this line is accentuated throughout the life of the poet by the many places he lived in - cities that left their distinctive mark on his consciousness and poetry. As such, the mega-narrative, much like a journey, sets a background of progressive time against a foreground of places that give meaning to the timeline.
