This publication is a comprehensive study on modern Arab poetry as an art form, from the renaissance period until present day times. The development of modern Arab poetry was organic insofar it stems from the artistic movement itself and goes in line with what is not determined by social and cultural developments alone, but by creative needs which art dictates. Hence, the study of the evolution of Arab poetry is also the study of the history of the development of this art in its relentless pursuit of contemporaneity, especially because the relentless pull towards this goal was dictated by the right artistic instinct aimed at bringing Arab poetry to international attention.
