| Zusammenfassung: | How poetic modernism shaped Arabic intellectual debates in the twentieth century and beyondCity of Beginnings is an exploration of modernism in Arabic poetry, a movement that emerged in Beirut during the 1950s and became the most influential and controversial Arabic literary development of the twentieth century. Robyn Creswell introduces English-language readers to a poetic movement that will be uncannily familiar-and unsettlingly strange. He also provides an intellectual history of Lebanon during the early Cold War, when Beirut became both a battleground for rival ideologies and the most vital artistic site in the Middle East. Arabic modernism was centered on the legendary magazine Shi'r ("Poetry"), which sought to put Arabic verse on "the map of world literature." The Beiruti poets-Adonis, Yusuf al-Khal, and Unsi al-Hajj chief among them-translated modernism into Arabic, redefining the very idea of poetry in that literary tradition. City of Beginnings includes analyses of the Arab modernists' creative encounters with Ezra Pound, Saint-John Perse, and Antonin Artaud, as well as their adaptations of classical literary forms. The book also reveals how the modernists translated concepts of liberal individualism, autonomy, and political freedom into a radical poetics that has shaped Arabic literary and intellectual debate to this day |

Robyn Creswell introduces English-language readers to a poetic movement that will be uncannily familiar-and unsettlingly strange. He also provides an intellectual history of Lebanon during the early Cold War, when Beirut became both a battleground for rival ideologies and the most vital artistic site in the Middle East. Arabic modernism was centered on the legendary magazine Shi'r ("Poetry"), which sought to put Arabic verse on "the map of world literature." The Beiruti poets-Adonis, Yusuf al-Khal, and Unsi al-Hajj chief among them-translated modernism into Arabic, redefining the very idea of poetry in that literary tradition. City of Beginnings includes analyses of the Arab modernists' creative encounters with Ezra Pound, Saint-John Perse, and Antonin Artaud, as well as their adaptations of classical literary forms. The book also reveals how the modernists translated concepts of liberal individualism, autonomy, and political freedom into a radical poetics that has shaped Arabic literary and intellectual debate to this day Geschichte 1955-2011 gnd rswk-swf Arabic poetry Lebanon Beirut Modernism (Literature) Lebanon Beirut Poetry, Modern 20th century Lyrik (DE-588)4036774-5 gnd rswk-swf Arabisch (DE-588)4241223-7 gnd rswk-swf Moderne (DE-588)4039827-4 gnd rswk-swf Beirut (DE-588)4005348-9 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4113937-9 Hochschulschrift gnd-content Beirut (DE-588)4005348-9 g Arabisch (DE-588)4241223-7 s Lyrik (DE-588)4036774-5 s Moderne (DE-588)4039827-4 s Geschichte 1955-2011 z DE-604 Erschtint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-0-691-18218-6 https://doi.org/10.1515/9780691185149 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
