Poet of Jordan: The Political Poetry of Muhammad Fanatil Al-Hajaya
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-37278-8 (ISBN)
In Poet of Jordan, William Tamplin presents two decades’ worth of the political poetry of Muhammad Fanatil al-Hajaya, a Bedouin poet from Jordan and a public figure whose voice channels a popular strain of popular Arab political thought. Tamplin’s footnoted translations are supplemented with a biography, interviews, and pictures in order to contextualize the man behind the poetry.
The aesthetics and politics of vernacular Arabic poetry have long gone undervalued. By offering a close study of the life and work of Hajaya, Tamplin demonstrates the impact that one poet’s voice can have on the people and leaders of the contemporary Middle East.
William Tamplin is a Ph.D. candidate in Comparative Literature at Harvard University. He has published translations of and articles on modern Arabic literature.
