Abu Dhabi, July 24 / WAM / The American University in Cairo hosted His Excellency Dr. Ali bin Tamim, President of the Abu Dhabi Center for the Arabic Language, in a scientific symposium that discussed his newly published book, “The eyes of the wonders in the inventions and oddities of Abu al -Tayyib”, in the presence of a group of academics, media professionals and specialists in literary and linguistic studies.

The symposium witnessed the participation of Dr. Ahmed Darwish, Professor of Comparative Literature, Dr. Rasha Saleh, Professor of Comparative Literature, Osama Al -Saeed, Editor -in -Chief of Al -Akhbar newspaper, Dr. Reem El -Bardisi, Professor of English Literature, Dr. Ahmed and Lablala, Dean of the Faculty of Dar Al Uloom, Dr. Mustafa Ammar, Editor -in -Chief of Al -Watan Newspaper, and Dr. Mark Malluser, Director of the Middle East Studies Center at the American University, along with Dr. Reem Al -Bassiouni And professor of linguistics at the American University.

The discussions centered on the methodology that Dr. Ali bin Tamim followed in studying the poems of Al -Mutanabbi, as the participants stressed the importance of this approach in applying modern and contemporary methods of criticism to classical Arab literature, with the possibility of comparing it with the experiences of international poets.

Dr. Reem El -Bardisi indicated that the book can be adopted as an academic reference for graduate students in comparative literature departments.

For his part, Dr. Ahmed Darwish explained that the study of Al -Mutanabbi needs such innovative approaches that allow a deeper understanding of the Arab poetic experience and culture, while Dr. Ahmed Ballalla highlighted the distinction of choosing the concept of “invention” in the book and its close association with poetry, considering that the work raised deep questions about the experience of Al -Mutanabbi and open new horizons for its study.

In response to one of the interventions, Dr. Ali bin Tamim reviewed the efforts of pioneers such as Dr. Taha Hussein and Mahmoud Shaker in the study of Al -Mutanabbi, indicating that many subsequent studies remained in the same astronomy without renewal, despite the presence of serious attempts to deviate from the ordinary.

The attendees also discussed the multiplicity of poetic levels in the experience of Al -Mutanabbi and the importance of using multiple curricula to read it, including the method of psychoanalysis, as he stressed the need to distinguish between the concepts of the ego and the self when analyzing the poems of Al -Mutanabi.

In an intervention, Dr. Mustafa Ammar pointed out that many researchers fell into the trap of fascination with Al -Mutanabbi’s poetry, which affected the objectivity of their studies, considering that the work of Dr. Ali bin Tamim provides a clear systematic framework that goes beyond this problem and provides a balanced rational approach.
