Hazim and the Greek influence 2.

imitation and play acting, and 3.

conceivable fabrication and impossible fabrication The German orientalists concentrated on the first issue, i.

This article therefore reveals that the German orientalists viewing of imagination and creation in the eyes of Hazim tends to be poor,
