Abstract

This paper studies the Poetic letters in Pre-Islamic Era, dealing with the hypothesis that letters of that era specifically, should be orally in character like other literary arts. In other words, it should be poetic and not in prose. The scholars of that Era were always talking about prose letters, ignoring poetic letters. When we had a closed look, we found out that Pre-Islamic letters intricate to be confined in number, and diversified in style, with an exquisite and refined artistic level in the domain of the poetry. These letters had formed the genuine start to the form this literary genre that developed and grew later, and was rich in poetic letters in the late era of writing records.
