Notes
The contemplative tendency is a well-known characteristic of our ancient pre-Islamic and pre-Islamic Arabic poetry, and it indicates the extent to which Arab thought has reached in this or that time period, despite the fact that contemplation in ancient Arabic poetry would not have constituted a general phenomenon even in the Abbasid era, in which Arab culture was enriched by its mixture with foreign cultures of Persian, Greek, and Indian. But what could constitute a phenomenon in this regard is Sufi poetry, because Sufis have their own philosophy of life and their own view of the Creator and creatures, and they form something similar to a school with its own ideas and way of expressing them. However, this contemplative tendency began to take on a general character in romantic Arabic poetry in the modern era, as it focused on contemplating the soul and its relationship with life and nature. Contemplative poetry appeared among immigrants in North and South America in particular, and this was helped by their tripartite exile: their estrangement. About the homeland, their alienation in the new society, and their alienation in the world of time and place as romantic poets longing for a world without borders. The tendency to contemplate appeared more among the poets of the North than it did among the poets of the South in the American diaspora, due to their extreme introversion to themselves as a result of the tyranny of matter in the United States of America more than its tyranny in Brazil and Argentina. To the extent of the tyranny of matter, the poets of the League of Pens exalted their souls to the world of dreams and ideas, and they made contemplation the basis of their poetry. Gibran Khalil Gibran, Mikhail Naimy, and Nasib Arida were the first to remove this tendency, then they were followed by Elijah Abu Madi, Rashid Ayoub, and Nadra Haddad. Hence, our choice of the poets of the League of Pens was because they constitute a school in Arabic literature for the convergence of their ideas and disputes. -- Bibliography: p. 413-420
