Textual Coherence in the News of the Revenge of the Poet Imru' al-Qais: A Study in the Light of Textual Linguistics

Abstract

This research reveals the textual cohesion in the predicate of Imru’al-Qays' journey in his father’s request to avenge Bani Asad with Ibn Al-Kalbi’s narration, in the light of textual linguistics, as an effective means of constructing speech based on harmony resulting from the existing relationships between the parts of the text and its tools. The textual cohesion searches for the special moral relationship between the phrase or text phrases, because the Arabic sentence is nothing but a syntactic saying, and its cohesion has a semantic relationship.  Our aim in this is to identify the effect of that cohesion on the harmony and consistency of the text, by interpreting the existing relationships between facts.  This research has two aspects: the first is the verbal cohesions, and the other is the moral cohesions. The research concludes that this predicte is a textual sequence rich of many expressive verbal equivalences consisting of sentences and expressions of frequent connotations in the cohesions of their constructive context.  Contributed in it with a number of joining cohesions, taking each other with unity, to describe a completely consistent concept stemming from or built from the sequence of these verbal cohesions, and the partial concepts that link the message of the text according to its general framework.  The narrator, in it, was able to communicate his contents to the recipients in the content of a clear message that integrated form and content in a smooth plot and movement ending to a tragic fateful end.
