Abstract

This article aims to provide an overview of 13th-century Syriac poetry through the study of two poems by Bar Hebraeus, a pioneering poet of his time, providing an overview of this art form during that period. These two poems delve into and explore the dimensions of love and friendship. The second poem is, in fact, a collection of two intimately related compositions. After a general introduction to Syriac poetry and the particularities of Bar Hebraeus’ poetry, the analysis focuses on the translation and interpretation of these two poems, which were initially translated into Arabic. The translation into French enhances their dissemination, underscoring the significance of this study in accessing these texts.
