الشعرية العربية وسؤال العلاقة مع الآخر الغربي "قراءة ما بعد كولونيالية في كتاب الشعرية العربية لجمال الدين بن الشيخ"

Résumé

If the research in the ancient Arab poetry and diving in its depths is a hard mission surrounded by the conceptual and methodological obstacles imposed by its extended course in time and space and vision, restating confusing question in another language other than the Arabic in order to reshape the general awareness of the reader whose epistemological horizons had been determined by the Orientalist system is a pure adventure which cannot be taken only by few researchers who can bridge the deep urban gap between the Islamic Arabic self and the Western other.This adventure had been taken by Jamel Eddine Ben Chikh through his various writings mainly his book “Ashiiria al Arabia” (Arab poetry).

This paper aims at contributing to reaching the specificity of this critical work regarding its topic, method, and aim through a critical reading that reaches the depth of the used concepts and touches its dimensions to find the ties between the specificity of the discourse and comprehensiveness of the questions which are extrapolated by the discourse of Ben Chikh. The main question is: to what extent did the researcher manage to escape the Western reference authority in his research about the Arab poetry?
