Synopsis

The development of modern Arabic poetry took on an organic growth, evolving along lines determined not only by social and cultural developments, but largely also by artistic needs. Its evolution is not only a fascinating story for those interested in modern Arabic poetry as an expression of a particular people who have undergone great changes in all aspects of their life, but it is also a demonstration both extensive and intensive of artistic development over a relatively short period of time.
