It gives a historically contextualised close reading of works from authors who have been studied as pionneers of Arabic and Turkish literatures, such as Ziya Pasha, Jurjī Zaydān, Maʿrūf al-Ruṣāfī and Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar.\u003cbr\u003eThe book analyses how these authors prepared the arguments and concepts that shape how we study Arabic and Turkish literatures today as they reassessed the relationship among the Ottoman canon's linguistic traditions. Furthermore, it examines the Ottoman reception of pre-Ottoman poets, such as \u003ci\u003eKa\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eʿ\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eb ibn Zuhayr\u003c\/i\u003e, hence opening up new research avenues for Arabic literature, Ottoman studies and comparative literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e C.
