تجليات الفقر في شعر أبي الشمَقمَق

Abstract EN

This research aims to picture the social life prevailing during late Umayyad and early Abbasid periods as described by Abu- Achammaqmaq, a poet and a veteran of the two eras.

His poetry reflects the upheavals of poverty of the desperate working- classes which constantly called for a life of equality and decency.

Abu- Achammaqmaq focused on the stations of poverty that have taken him to many ways and methods of discourse that seemed in some of its aspects to reach the point of obscenity to match the scale of the suffering or horror being experienced by the poor and the powerless.
