  abstract  = {In this article we will present a few examples of the theme of "calling for help and redemption" in Arabic and Hebrew poetry, with particular focus on eleventh and twelfth century Muslim Spain. More particularly, we will offer a glimpse into the life and oeuvre of two medieval poets (one Muslim, one Jewish); both were active in Muslim Spain in the same period and shared a similar fate of exile and wandering: on the one hand, the Sicilian Arabic poet Ibn Ḥamdīs (c. 1056-c. 1133) and on the other hand, the Spanish Jewish poet Moses ibn Ezra (1055-1138). We will take into account the impact of exile and wandering on the profusion of the theme of "calling for help and redemption" as well as the related theme of "yearning for one's homeland" through an analysis and comparison of poetic fragments by the two aforementioned poets as well as additional Andalusian Jewish (Judah ha-Levi) and Muslim (Ibn Khafāja, al-Rundī and Ibn al-Abbār) poets.},
