Description

This book traces the history of classical Arabic wine poetry from its origins in the sixth century to its heyday in Baghdad at the turn of the ninth century. The focus is on the wine songs of the great Abú Nuwás (d. c.813) whose compositions are analysed within the context of the various related genres of classical Arabic poetry.
