POET OF THE DAY
Fuad Rifka born 1930 in a small village in Syria studied filosophy in Beyrouth and got a doctoral degree in Tübingen/Germany. Rifka is one of the most importent innovators of modern poetry in Arabic poetry. Although he is a great connoisseur of Western, especially modern German poetry and translated poetry by Novalis, Hölderlin, Rilke, Trakl, his poetry is always flavoured with a metitave, Oriental perfume. His poetry has been published in French, in English, in German (Heiderhoff Verlag).
