| 520 | |a "Witty, bawdy, and vicious, Yūsuf al-Shirbīnī's 'Brains Confounded' pits the "coarse" rural masses against the "refined" urban population. In Volume One (ISBN 9781479840212), al-Shirbīnī describes the three rural "types"-peasant cultivator, village man-of-religion, and rural dervish-offering anecdotes testifying to the ignorance, dirtiness, and criminality of each. In Volume Two, he presents a hilarious parody of the verse-and-commentary genre so beloved by scholars of his day, with a 47-line poem supposedly written by a peasant named Abū Shādūf, who charts the rise and fall of his fortunes. Wielding the scholarly tools of elite literature, al-Shirbīnī responds to the poem with derision and ridicule, dotting his satire with digressions into love, food, and flatulence. Volume Two of 'Brains Confounded' is followed by 'Risible Rhymes', a concise text that includes a comic disquisition on "rural" verse, mocking the pretensions of uneducated poets from Egypt's countryside. 'Risible Rhymes' also examines various kinds of puzzle poems, which were another popular genre of the day, and presents a debate between scholars over a line of verse by the tenth-century poet al-Mutanabbī. Together, 'Brains Confounded' and 'Risible Rhymes' offer intriguing insight into the intellectual concerns of Ottoman Egypt, showcasing the intense preoccupation with wordplay, grammar, and stylistics and shedding light on the literature of the era"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
