This study, long out of print, is the acknowledged starting point for the study of these poets. Their Divans are presented in Arabic, along with a substantial introduction by Ahlwardt, a list of variant readings and corrections, considerations of discrepancies in the manuscripts, and appendices of the fragments UR - https://doi.org/10.31826/9781463214944 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781463214944 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781463214944/original ER -
