شِعْرُ مُحْي الدِّين بن قُرناص الحموي دراسة وتوثيق

Muhiyydeen bin Qurnaas al-Hamawi is a Syrian poet from a noble and famous family in Hamat . He was born and lived in the Seventh Century A. H. He was on of the anonymous forgotten poets to whom researchers and scholars did not pay enough care and attention.Although Ibn Qurnaas was a famous poet who devoted his life for and was faithful to his poetry, his biographers did not define him sufficiently. Their biographies did not even enrich his curriculum vitae and that of his family. Availability of information on him was one of the obstacles that face the current researcher in collecting his works and writing his biography.Al-Miqreezy, for instance, was so interested in him, even so, he did not mention but fewer of his poetry and little biography of his family. Paradoxically, none has talked about his birthday, bringing up, or study. Amazingly, Ibn Qurnaas was neglected though he was among the top poets who wrote Divans in the Middle Ages and was so eloquent, witty, and of a high ability to express his emotions and sensations. Accordingly, the researcher believes that a study of Ibin Qurnaas and his poetry will contribute to the literary studies.The present study aims at collecting and verifying his poetry. Such poetry reflects the nature of life the poet had practiced and, in a way, has a rich material that deserves to be studied and contemplated. The researcher has consulted literary as well as historic resources such as al-Miqreezy (died in 845 A. H.), al-Umary (died in 749 A. H.), and Ibn Hujja al-Hamawi (died in 837 A. H.). The study has fallen into two parts: the first deals with his life and poetry while the second is his divan, verified and collected from literary and historic resources. Part One, however, includes three sections the first of which deals with his biography, the second with the different purposes of his poetry, and the third with the artistic zcharacteristics of that poetry .
