Abstract

 

This study investigates Abdalqahir

Aljurjani’s

efforts in his book: Dala´il

al-I´jaz. The intent here is to demonstrate some aspects of text unintentionally

written in his book. His views are deemed as protoprecursor

to what is called

nowadays text grammar, textology, text linguistics, or discourse analysis.

His tackling of various topics such as discourse and context, connection and

disconnection, reference anaphora ,connection with the definite, relative and

reiteration , fronting and back warding, and ellipsis can be considered as

contents of contemporary text grammar. This study concludes that his views

are in the care of this realm of inquiry. It highlights that he excels the ancient

grammarians whose mission was focused on setting grammatical rules for

the sentence being independent from the other sentences; that is, he takes

into consideration the context where utterances and sentences occur and

the extent of their consistency with that context. He proceeds to demonstrate

the relations which connect them to each other. In addition, he confirmed

the listener’s attitude in linking sententeces by viewing discourse from that

attitude; which meets with what modern grammarians have gone for, such as

those interested in text grammar.
