Features of political and social criticism in Andalusian poetry during the Taifa era
Abstract
Andalusian poetry flourished in the fifth century of the Hijra - and was about to acquire distinct features from it in its earlier stages, after the feeling of "Andalusia" grew and the personality of the Arab crystallized in his new environment. This environment has left its mark on Andalusian poetry in all its natural dimensions, as well as on social and cultural policy. These effects and those dimensions were the subject of Dr. Saad Ismail Shalaby's attention - in his doctoral thesis. The research focused on an aspect of political and social life x on the era of the sects - and a picture of that life. Represented by the participation of the Andalusian poet - in evaluating the most prominent political events through their kings and ministers by directing criticism to them, diminishing political conditions, and trying to diagnose the most prominent factors that were behind the decline of society and its regression when some of its members overtook the other. In embodying those defects and highlighting that flaw in one way or another. As the research tends towards this trend, it sheds light on the nature of political and social life through this poetic current, thus breaking Andalusian poetry from the grip of absolute loyalty to the kings of the sects, and presenting us with the experience of a number of poets in the face of the deteriorating social aspects that prevailed at the time, and in this he comes out on being An aristocratic ideology that adopted it, its direction and the nourishment of the Andalusian aristocracy, according to one scholar.
