Absent Rhetoric Studying What is not Studied in Al-Khatib Al- Qhizwini’s School

Abstract

This study attempts to monitor some rhetorical aspects which Al-Qhizwini and his school ignored and to represent them. The first section discusses the vocal level, the second discusses the structural level and the third studies image-building. The study concludes by representing what is missing at the vocal level by letter repetition, another kind of alliteration and formula eloquence. It found a representation of what is missing at the structural level by separation and connection between vocabulary items, sentences and connectors other than (and), stopping and starting, and the methods of construction other than requests. It finds some stylistic sentences which were not studied such as negation, conditional sentences, jurisdiction style and warning and seduction technique. At the level of image-building, it represents what is missing by other ways free from metaphor, simile and metonymy
