The Naka'id of Jarir and al-Farazdak, Volume 1 presents a significant collection of classical Arabic poetry. This volume showcases the 'naqa'id, ' or flytings, between two of the most celebrated poets of the Umayyad period, Jarir ibn 'Atiyah and al-Farazdak. These poetic exchanges, characterized by wit, boastful self-praise, and sharp satire, offer invaluable insights into the social, cultural, and political landscape of their time.
This edition, originally published in 1905, preserves the original Arabic text, making it an essential resource for students and scholars of Arabic literature, history, and culture. The 'naqa'id' form represents a unique and vibrant aspect of Arabic literary tradition, and this collection provides a rich and engaging example of its enduring appeal.
