المسائل الخلافية البلاغية : باعث ذاتي، و اعتراض مخفي

Abstract EN

Similar to the controversial issues in Arabic grammar which have been fueled by the spirit of competition among scholars to explain the grammatical phenomena, it is also found that rhetoricians have addressed these issues except that they did not take much attention and interest.

This is because rhetoric did not deal with exactly what grammar has dealt with, such as the position of the word which appeared to be more consistent in the Arabic sentence.

Besides, grammarians adopted the factor theory which attempted to give an acceptable explanation, to some extent, of the locational system of the sentence.

Rhetoric, on the other hand, focused on meaning which was so hard to set or fix especially in the Quranic text being open to multiple readings.

If we consider rhetoric as a brooder or a carrier of the Quranic text, we can feel the serious problem of the rhetorical controversies.

Our task here is to investigate the most significant phenomena which have been dealt with during the eras of rhetorical composition, and then to categorize them according to groups to collect the subjective motives of the issues.

This paper is intended to be an introduction to a later academic work that deals with all aspects of the topic, when time is right, because it is one of the most important rhetorical subjects which has been overlooked on behalf of other subjects.
