المعرفة عند الجاحظ : طرق اكتسابها و سبل إنمائها و تكثيرها

Abstract EN

This article is an attempt to reveal what tends to be a theory of knowledge for al-Jahiz.

Among the most important features of which this theory consists are: the statement, the right approach to thinking and authorship, then Al-Jahiz’s focusing on applying such approach to all his writings.

As for a statement for Al-Jahiz’s , it is from a first angle a thinking about a sign and the general classification of it, and is from a second angle an explanation of the way through which knowledge is acquired and disseminated.

As for the right method of thinking and writing, it is for Al-Jahiz a part that makes knowledge wide and deep, through taking care of presenting ideas from controversial angles, that deal with topics from contrasting visions, in which the author's thought rises to the level of "dialogue".
