Abstract

One of the most well known writers and a pre-Romantic poet of Diwan group and an innovative critic Abdur Rahman Shukri was born in Alexandria (1886-1958).Throughout the formative phases of Abdur Rahman Shukri’s life, many figures were responsible for shaping his love and imagination on poetry. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the love and imagination on Shukri’s poetry. Imagination is regarded as a tool of insight into a higher order of reality which many render those who have glimpsed it in capable of coping with this mundane world. Shukri’s love poetry is marked by its excessive idealization of the beloved. Shukri addresses the beloved in the traditional masculine form, and occasionally uses conventional love and imagery. He has an unmistakable tendency to express himself in generalizations, sentiments and moral perception in the manner of traditional gnomic verse and his intellectual ability as manifested in his writings.
