Summary |
كتاب اشتمل على مجموعتين من القصائد، الأولى اختارها المفضل الضبي بناءًا على طلب من أبي جعفر المنصور الذي أشار عليه أن يختار أجود القصائد ليدرب بها ابنه المهدي ويعلمه روائع الشعر وخالصه، وقد سُميت هذه المختارات فيما بعد بـ "المفضليات". أما الثانية فقد اختارها الأصمعي بناءًا على طلب من هارون الرشيد الذي أوكل إليه تأديب ابنه الأمين، وقد سميت فيما بعد بـ "الأصمعيات". وقد جمع المؤلف هذه القصائد، وشرحها شرحًا وافيًا، مفسرًا غريبها، وموضحًا معانيها. |

Al-Manṣūr asked him to collect the finest pieces of poetry to educate his son, al-Mahdī. This collection was later called "al-Mufaḍdaliyyāt". The second collection is compiled by al-Aṣmaʿī in response to the request of Ḥārūn al-Rašīd who assigned him educate his son, al-Amīn. Similiarly, the second collection was later called "al-Aṣaʿiyyāt". The author of the book compiled both collections and wrote an elaborate commentary on both of them. |
