This thesis is a comprehensive study of Abū Hilāl al-ʿAskarī. It attempts to
achieve two main objectives: Reintroducing Abū Hilāl’s biography and re-evaluating
his opinion on two major literary critical issues, namely “wording and meaning” (al-lafẓ
wa-l-maʿnā), and synonyms (al-mutarādifāt). The study includes the complete works
of Abū Hilāl in order to achieve a precise and integrated view of his literary tradition.
Materials from multiple disciplines, such as morphology, syntax, lexicography, and
literary criticism, have been employed throughout the thesis and subjected to deep
readings so as to produce complete analyses of Abū Hilāl’s opinions on these literary
issues. This approach leads to a more genuine and qualitative description of both the
personal and literary aspects of Abū Hilāl and his works. These aspects were not
clearly identified in prior studies that took a less comprehensive approach. This thesis
benefits from two main streams in terms of methodology: the methodology of taste by
Shākir, and the “death of the author” by Barthes, which are discussed in Chapter One. |
