자브라 이브라힘 자브라의 아랍시 비평과 신화사용에 관한 연구

Abstract

Jabra Ibrahim Jabra has been considered by many modern Arabs, as well as Western scholars, as a brilliant and talented writer. And Jabra, who has been an active participant in modern Arabic literature since the late 1930s, has been able to establish himself as one of the most prolific and versatile Arab writers, noted for his significant contributions as a poet, literary critic, translator, painter, short story writer and novelist. As a poet, in particular, Jabra has shown a great interest in developing modern Arabic poetry since his early youth. Actually Jabra is one of the greatest enthusiasts for the use of myth in poetry, and of the Tammūz myth in particular. And also it was Jabra who gave the group of poets employing the Tammūz myth the name of "al-Shu‘ara' al-Tammūziyyūn", and took great pains to explain the deep and universal significance of this myth.In my paper I'll make an intense study on his poetry. At first, I'll look into his life and his works, and then his critical views on the Arabic poetry and his contributions. Finally, I'll study his mythical poetry, especially his use of the images about the lives and the death which were drawn from the Tammūz myth.
