com  :   The present study aims to highlight Al-Baroudi's critical views through his poems which are almost unknown; scholars who have examined Al-Baroudi's poems in previous studies have focused on his poems through which he became widely known as a poet, illuminating themes and figures of speech.

They have not highlighted his several critical views embedded in his poetry with the exception of very few quick remarks.   Therefore, reading Al-Baroudi's poetry and identifying the lines and poems expressing all his critical views on poetry in one study is a new and unusual endeavor foregrounding this area which –I believe- has not been trodden before.   Conclusions of the present study show that these views –that cover a fair amount of his poetry- can be regarded as an adequate account for introducing himself through praising his poetry.

In addition, they can be considered as a proper place for drafting his critical concepts on poetic art or for the ideal model of the poet who wish to surpass his fellow poets.

Some of his views represent poetic advice to his contemporary poets.

Some of them are similar to poetic statements formulating the basic principles of poetic art; others are akin to repeated indications in his poems which are subsumed under the poetic commentary.

  The present study adopts a descriptive approach through which Al-Baroudi's embedded views in the five sections are identified.

In addition to the descriptive approach, the aesthetic approach is often employed to analyze a certain lexical item related to a view in a specific line or a group of lines representing this view.

  Keywords: Mahmoud Sami Al-Baroudi, poetry, criticism, views.
