Contextual presumption and the formation of meanings between acuity and lukewarmness

Abstract

Relying on absurdity to approach an eloquent Arabic text – whatever its source – is in itself a form of absurdity. Indeed, all Arabic texts of the Quran, the Hadith or those emanating from an ideal speaker who has never uttered such words, outside the framework of linguistic protest, are texts that have meanings, whether we are aware of them or not, of the recipient having presumptions that allow him to reveal what is hidden in a text read. The contextual presumption is one of the most important presumptions because it is not possible to strip a discourse of its status. If we did that, we would return to the absurdity mentioned in this article. When the presumption of status took first place in the reading process, it seemed important to us to choose it for this research. This is all the more important because speech cannot be understood away from its context or the environment in which it comes.

The approach adopted in this study is a mixture between the descriptive, which examines the phenomenon and defines its elements, and the inductive, which looks at this phenomenon in the middle of the texts, gathering its effects on it.
