These poems circulated across the Arabo-Islamic world for some six centuries in speech, letters, inscriptions, and, above all, anthologies. Drawing on more than a hundred unpublished and published works, How Do You Say “Epigram” in Arabic? is the first study of this highly popular and adaptable genre of Arabic poetry. By addressing this lacuna, the book models an alternative comparative literature, one in which the history of Arabic poetry has as much to tell us about epigrams as does Greek.Brill studies in Middle Eastern literatures ;Volume 40.Epigrams, ArabicHistory and criticismArabic poetry1258-1800History and criticismArabic poetry19th centuryHistory and criticismEpigrams, ArabicHistory and criticism.Arabic poetryHistory and criticism.Arabic poetryHistory and criticism.892.780209Talib Adam1712000MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820719403321How do you say "epigram" in Arabic4103773UNINA
