الطرديات في الشعر العبري و العربي في القرون الوسطى

Abstract EN

Not only literary materials relating to the description of the act of hunting and its participants – the hunt and its horse, the hawk and the dogs, and, of course, the animals being stalked – been at the disposal of Alḥarizi who borrowed from Arabic poetry in his Maḥberet Ha-Ṣayyad, whether from the jāhiliyyah or the mukhaḍramūn poets, or from the Umayyad or Abbasid poetry – but also the ethical question centered around the hunting of animals and the fate of man.

However, Alḥarizi’s work is perhaps the best in this regard, both in the detailed account of ‘the chase’ and in the thorough investigation into the question of divine justice, a discussion which he was far more adept to engage in than his Arab counterpart, seeing that he was raised upon religious and philosophical thought.
