| Abstract | ||
| The current study sheds light on the critiques achieved at the hand of important Arab critics; Al-Jahidh (255 Hegira) in his significant book Al-Baian Wal Tabeen [Evidence and Evidence Finding], and Ibin Wahab Al-Katib (325 Hegira) in his book Al-Burhan Fi Wajah Al-Baian [The Proof at the Face of the Evidence],both experienced the critical writings in two prosperous centuries from the centuries of Islamic Arab Civilization. Such critiques come in parallel with the idea of genres having,throughout history, theoretical ploughs and procedures endeavouring to describe the controversy of literature. What ramifies from the genres comes as a façade to literary content and takes part in having a literary vision about universe and life. Scrutinizing the former critiques never means leaving settled visions without reason, but it means explicating and fathoming the sense of criticism of the these critiques themselves, as they appertain to the systematic genre orbit in respect to the process of criticism. Such designates palpitating perception to the roots of the issue that takes great importance to intellectuality and practicing the modernist criticism. | ||
