| Abstract
|
:
|
Qur'an and the Lyric Imperative argues that the tension between Arabic poetry and the Qur'an dating back to the seventh century, when the Qur'an was first recited, is a primary generator of meaning in the Arabic Literary Tradition. Four case studies illustrate how this tension is a creative force. This book explores the relationship between the Qur'an, poetry, and other genres of Arabic literature; how the figures of the prophet and the poet are linked in the life and work of tenth-century al-Mutanabbi; how the Qur'an and Arabic poetry depend on each other for their interpretation; and how reading practices associated with the Qur'an and Arabic Poetry inform attempts to understand the inscriptions of the Alhambra.
