Abstract

 Like other Arab sciences, rhetoric was not born an hour or a day, it rather passed through many phases until the completion of its maturity andbecoming an independent science by its rules and laws. Its creation was completed by Abd al-Qaher al-Jarjani, who developed the theory of semantics and knowledge in his books: signs of achievement and the secrets of eloquence. He succeeded in his intelligence and insight in setting the rules of rhetoric and building its premises on a solid basis of assets and laws that have been settled in an integrated way for a long time. It was him who made its assets and laid down its rules and no change existed after that. Then came the stage of codification and complexity thanks to Al-Sakaki as he was interested in philosophy and logic, he worked to codify the rules of rhetoric using his logical abilities to explain and classify what led to modify rhetoricto rules and laws formulated in logical dry way that stratifiedbetween it and its function of sense exhilaration,self pleasure, breeding of taste and development of queens. This was the case of eloquence for a long time, especially since those who came from after Al-Sakkis such as the Caspian. They did not deviate in the rhetorical lesson from the rules set by Al-Sakaki and it glowed through days until the appearance of a plenty of scholars, including Al- Alawi and by then they have revive rhetoric brightly. Al-Alawi sought in his book the style to return to the rhetorical lesson for its first sources represented in taste and temper, and linking it to the Quranic miracle. He organised the rhetorical material, renewed the term and expanded it using lots of evidence and its best choice, then explained it in a literary style far from complications near to the instinct and temper so as to recognise the moral values, and the aesthetic elements.
