Linguistic Reception of Abu Al-Ala' Al-Ma'arri's"Rissalat Al-Ghofran" in contemporary Arabic Studies

Abstract

This study aims to examine the manner in which contemporary scholarship has approached the linguistic dimension of Risalat al-Ghofran by Abu al-ala' al-ma'arri. It undertakes an analytical review of two selected studies: the first addresses the lexical aspect, treating the word as a fundamental unit of meaning; while the second adopts a procedural framework on the role of contexts, interpretive gaps, and their contributions to meaning construction within the selected corpus.
