| Abstract | ||
| The Present paper tack les the study of popular plays through predecessors and pre- Islamic poetry. It deals with more than thirty popular plays which are employed by poets in their poetry at that time. That poetry was a research tool to know the name of the play and it's time. The treatment of the theme under study was exclusive to this period. It is worth noting that the names of most that plays have reached us. At the same time, the nature, identity and function of that plays remained hidden. However; we cannot deny the existence of those plays which are known by their historians. But those historians do not take note of what document by poetry us if is revealed by the title of present paper. It seems that the reason behind that the poetry which is concerned with popular plays is not poetical. It is very difficult for the poet to find a justification for using words like (AL-Kuthkutha) or (AL-Dujandah) and something like this. It is not strange to say that reason behind exclusion of those plays is that the plays are unknown. There is nothing left only their names. The historians of those plays take on their shoulders the task of documentation since they are dearest part of the heritage of Arab nation. | ||
