Notes
Our studies of modern Arabic poetry are still faltering in entering into the world of the poet, and the simplest manifestation of this appears in poets attacking criticism when they are asked about the critical achievement in media interviews. This is due to many reasons, including: First: The critic ignores his contemporary poet, or targets the more brilliant poets. This leads to negative results, the most important of which are: the lag of critical discourse in keeping pace with creative discourse, contributing to the poet’s alienation from his time and society, and the critic’s disavowal of his basic function: to pave the difficult path between the poet and the recipient. Second: Fear of entering dangerous areas, such as poems that carry the poet’s anger due to poverty and tyranny... to the point of feeling that the critic is in one valley, and the poet is in another valley. This book attempts to penetrate into the remote places that still need to be discovered, which is the poet’s “ego,” the center of vision in which the fruits of suffering are gathered, and the shadows of longing for a better life that the word draws, or urges one to reach it. At the beginning of each chapter, there are questions that stimulate the mind to seek knowledge, and engrave in the memory the desire to search for stored answers, or scattered expectations here and there, that raise a level of astonishment more than they pave the way for providing ready-made answers. The chapters were built in this way in order to be published in periodicals, and while I was writing, whenever I finished a chapter, I postponed sending it for publication until the next reading was completed. When I finished the seventh chapter, I felt an overwhelming desire to stop and publish what I had written in a book that included all the chapters. Includes bibliographic references
