Manifestations of Arabic Linguistic Style: Between the Explanation of Metaphor in Al-Zamakhshari's Dictionary Asas Al-Balagha and the English Commentary in Edward William Lane's Dictionary Madd Al-Qamous
A revealing critical journey sailing with you into the depths of Arabic metaphor and the magic of eloquence, between the peak of Al-Zamakhshari's rhetoric and the daring of Edward Lane's world-famous translation. The study examines literary translation, etymology, and rhetoric through careful interpretation and contextual analysis. It clarifies the concepts at stake, traces the relationships between them, and shows why differing readings lead to different conclusions. By balancing close attention to language with a broader intellectual frame, the book provides readers with a useful foundation for deeper study and independent critical engagement.
