The Analytical Rhetoric of Al-Amidi and its Impact on the Rhetoric of Abdul Qaher Al-Jurjani

Abstract

      The research paper stems from the hypothesis that Al-Sakaki’s rhetorical propositions are not the only representative of Arabic rhetoric. As there are other propositions in the Arab heritage that have been addressed by contemporary studies by reference; but these studies did not highlight it alone. Hence the title of the research "The Analytical Rhetoric of Al-Amidi and its Impact on the Rhetoric of Abdul Qaher Al-Jurjani" to monitor another field of work that is different from the familiar found in Al-Sakaki's perceptions. It goes beyond the scope of the work of school rhetoric to the rhetoric of criticism and analysis in an attempt to reveal some scientific steps for this type of rhetoric based on innovation. The research sample is based on monitoring what was mentioned in the book of Al-Mawazanaha by Al-Amidi (386 AH) from a practical application of some of the premises of "analytical rhetoric", and showing he impact of this on the visions of Abdul Qaher Al-Jarjani (474 AH) and its contribution to the analysis of the poetic text and the development of its analysis mechanisms.
