Mastering Arabic Through Literature: Poetry: Al-Rubaa Volume 3 [Arabic]

By Iman A Soliman and Saeed Alwakeel

The third volume in the Mastering Arabic through Literature series, built on a new learning approach that brings together language study and literary appreciation

In an innovative approach to teaching Modern Standard Arabic, this new content-based book aims to bolster study for advanced students in both linguistic skills and literary appreciation through the reading of a wide variety of original modern Arabic poetry by ten prominent poets. The book aims at enabling students to read, enjoy, and appreciate Arabic poetry through a set of activities--pre-reading; reading; follow-up; and reading alone. These activities facilitate the student's grasp of the structural complexity, lack of conformity to standard grammatical rules, and unfamiliar cultural perspectives that are known to make reading poetry difficult in any language.

The poets included are:

Emad Abu Saleh
Iman Mersal
Adonis
Amal Donqol
Mahmoud Darwish
Ahmed Abdel Moati Hegazi
Salah Abdel Sabour
Nizar Qabbani
Mohammad Farid Abu Saada
Ahmed Shawqi
This is the final volume in the Mastering Arabic Through Literature series, the first two were The Short Story and Drama.
