أبنية الأفعال في ديوان الإمام الشافعي : دراسة صرفية دلالية

الملخص EN

This study seeks to investigate verb structure in Imam Shafi’is poetic works.

It is a theme-oriented collection of poems attributed to him which deals with specific themes in a general style.

The choice for this literary piece is informed by its exhibition of deliberate and extravagant display of rhetorical devices, as well as easy accessibility of its content relative to other classical poetic works, which could barely be appreciated without an advanced Arabic dictionary.

This collection of poems however is made up of nineteen different parts under each of which are group of assemblies with varying themes.

While most of the themes are inter-locked, a few others are different.

One thing is certain though, beneath each assembly, one will discover a strong religious tone, a sound moral lesson, as well as a good pearl of wisdom replete with vast socio-cultural knowledge and rich linguistics material worthy of attention.

This study on the other hand sought to highlight how the various forms of Arabic verb structure, mainly three consonantal root and four consonantal roots, and their related extensions contribute to meaning formation in this literary piece.

This was accomplished jointly via a descriptive linguistic analysis & text interpretation
