Description
Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Arabistic, grade: 7.0, University of Ibadan, language: English, abstract: This study compared selected Medieval Arab satires in the poetic form with contemporary Yoruba satire in the Fuji form. The method applied in this study is the comparative analytical method. The phenomenon of satire could be found in both ancient and contemporary cultures. While ancient satires of the Arab and Yoruba had left elements of exorcism and cleansing in the form of satiric responses to initial curses, the medieval Arab and contemporary forms of Yoruba satires morphed their satires into a pseudo form of entertainment and contest whilst stroking various crucial cultural elements and themes like Religion, socio-political context, gender and the language element in their satires.
The satires of Farazadaq and Jarīr was gotten from Kitābun-Naqāid li Farazdaq wal-Jarīr of Abu-Ubaydah while the satires of Pasuma and Osupa was extracted from various record CDs. Furthermore, the theory applied to this study is typology which is a category of the parallelism theory that attempts to compare some similar literary phenomena produced at a different time, period, space geography and cultural context to discover the deep level of cultural differences under the similar type representation. Following this theory, this study was able to establish similarities and differences between the satires of Farazdaq and Jarīr and Pasuma and Osupa.
