Our literary heritage, and its poetry in particular, abounds in precious works of art that delight the soul and enrich the mind. Many editors and researchers have worked to revive the ancient Arabic heritage, gathering, documenting and studying its poetry and prose.
Having gathered and edited the poetry of Banu Kinanah from early Islam and the Umayyad era, the author devotes this book to its artistic and analytical study, shedding light on the tribal life of the time, its effect on the art of poetry in general, and the artistic and thematic developments it brought, especially in the poetry of Kinanah.
Kinanah is a great Mudari, Adnani tribe with many clans and a prominent place since the dawn of Arab history; to it belongs the lineage of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, Kinanah being his thirteenth ancestor. Exploring the pages of this book will be a delight for every lover of Arabic poetry.
