Between Hebrew and Arabic Poetry.
Tobi
The
book includes sixteen studies about medieval Hebrew poetry compared
with Arabic poetry. It is well known that since the tenth century
medieval Hebrew poets took Arabic poetry as the ultimate paradigm in
terms of prosody, language purism and rhetorical devices and even in
regard to poetical genres. However, the concept unifying all studies in
this book is that a comparative examination must consider not only the
identical elements in which Hebrew poetry borrowed from the Arabic one,
but alos what is much more significant – what Hebrew poetry stubbornly
set itself at a distance from Arabic poetry. The conclusive result of
this sort of examination is that Hebrew poetry combined selectively
borrowed Arabic poetical values with traditional ethical Jewish values
to create a distinctive poetical school.
