Revolution and Rebellion in AL- Zahawee Poetry

Abstract

Abstract:The factors that lay behind Al-Zahawee's rebellion were his sensitivity and his renewed revolutionary spirit rejecting the past. Further more, the type of era during which he was living and the political and social changes and events had an influence over him.The society was principally responsible for his mutiny, besides the political transformitions which had great impacts on his mentality and personality. The purposes of his revolt against his socity were to accomplish rformation equality as well as to stand up for women.He did not become stable on a particular situation concorning the political and social cases since there were a lot of opponents and because he was dismissed from his job besides his disappointment about those leaders and rulers who were continually fluctuating in their decisions.His revolt against the old poetry and his demand for adopting blank verse put him with the level of those poets who called for developing and reviving Arabic verse in an attempt to be free from an inactivity and stagnation that reflect traditional themes.
