Taha Hussein created an innovative critical approach based on objectivity and scientific method for analyzing texts. His critical school was inspired by the aspects of the author's life and the circumstances of the age in which he lived, considering the human being part of his environment and his influence on its circumstances and influence in it. This philosophy moved to his distinguished study of the great poet "Abi Al -Ala Al -Maari", as he was not limited to narrating his life and the effects of his literature, but also presented a comprehensive analysis of the time in which he lived and the events that affected his literary works. His book represents an interesting and comprehensive literary history of Maari's life and literary contributions.
