الفكر الاصطلاحي في معجم (الكليات)‎ للكفوي (١٠٩٤ هـ)‎ : دراسة نقدية

Abstract EN

The terms, being practical and epistemological keys in any area of study, have become an effective tool that helps researchers in a certain discipline to understand them and to trace their true sense.

The work on terms has busied a number of scholars in various areas.

They exerted great efforts in the cause of illuminating concepts, and defining senses.

They compiled dictionaries and encyclopedias which encompassed these terms.

One of these books is Abu Al-Baqa Ul-Kafawi’s (1094 A.H.) entitled Al-Kulliyat, a dictionary of linguistic differences, which contains a great number of terms that entered different scientific fields.

We opted for studying this book for its highlighting of the rhetoric terms.

The present thesis comprises four chapters.

Chapter One studies the rhetorical term, which had undergone no changes.

Chapter Two deals with the overlapping terms.

The overlapping terms are those rhetorical terms that were presented by Al-Kafawi as overlapping with such disciplines as grammar, jurisprudence, logic, etc.

Chapter Three is devoted to the rhetorical terms that were presented in a rather abridged manner to which we gave the label “condensed rhetorical term”.

Chapter Four is dedicated to the Rhetorical terms treated by Al-Kafawi away from their rhetorical arena.
