Arar and the Seniority of Free Poetry

Abstract

The purpose of the research is to approve Arar's seniority and precedence in writing poems of free poetry (a kind of Aabic poetry which has short rhythms and doesn't adhere to the same rhyme for the hall poem) among the modern Arabic literature, and also to denial the commonly say that claims seniority to other poets like Bader Shaker Alseyab , Nazek Almalaekah and others. The method to approve that will be by reviewing the references which documented and looked after this seniority. According to dates in which these poems were written, it is discerned that his first poem of this type was written in 1928, whilst the others' poems came later.
