Abstract:

 This study explores the neoclassical elements in Maḥmūd Sāmī al-Bārūdīs d. 13221904 poetry, with an emphasis on the interplay between tradition and modernity in the development of Arabic literature. The investigation focuses on al-Bārūdīs innovative use of classical techniques and themes in a contemporary context, analyzing the significance of his work in shaping the neoclassical movement and its impact on subsequent generations of Arabic-language poets. The purpose of this research is to elucidate the role of al-Bārūdīs unique poetic vision in the ongoing dialogue between cultural heritage and contemporary concerns in the Arab world, ultimately highlighting the lasting relevance of his work in understanding the evolution of modern Arabic literature. Employing a combination of close textual analysis and historical contextualization, the study examines alBārūdīs poetry within the broader framework of neoclassical and modern Arabic literary trends. The methodology includes a comparative approach that assesses al-Bārūdīs work against that of his contemporaries and predecessors, as well as an examination of critical reception and scholarly discourse surrounding his poetry. Through this multifaceted approach, the research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the neoclassical elements in al-Bārūdīs poetry and their significance in the broader context of Arabic literary history.

 Bu çalışma, Mahmud Sâmi Bârûdînin öl. 13221904 şiirindeki neoklasik unsurları incelemekte ve Arap edebiyatının gelişiminde gelenek ve modernlik arasındaki etkileşime vurgu yapmaktadır. Araştırma, Bârûdînin klasik teknik ve temaları çağdaş bir bağlamda yenilikçi bir şekilde kullanışına odaklanarak, onun çalışmalarının neoklasik hareketin şekillenmesindeki önemini ve gelecek nesillere mensup Arap şairleri üzerindeki etkisini analiz etmektedir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, Bârûdînin kendine özgü şairane vizyonunun, Arap dünyasındaki kültürel miras ile çağdaş meseleler arasında süregelen münakaşadaki rolünü açıklığa kavuşturmak ve sonuç olarak onun çalışmalarının modern Arap edebiyatının gelişimini anlamadaki kalıcı önemini vurgulamaktır. Yakın metin analizi ve tarihsel bağlamsallaştırma terkibini kullanarak çalışma, Bârûdînin şiirlerini neoklasik ve modern Arap edebiyatı temayülleri çerçevesinde incelemektedir. Yöntem, Bârûdînin eserlerini çağdaşları ve öncülleriyle karşılaştıran bir yaklaşımı içermekte olup aynı zamanda da onun şiiri etrafındaki eleştirel beyanları ve akademik söylemleri incelemektedir. Bu çok yönlü yaklaşım aracılığıyla araştırma, Bârûdînin şiirindeki neoklasik unsurları ve bu unsurların Arap edebiyat tarihi bağlamındaki önemini kapsamlı bir şekilde tespit etmeyi amaçlamaktadır.
