Abstract

This research aims at defining the role of the “recipient” in the Arabic grammatical heritage in order to highlight the level of the Ancient Arabic Grammar studies in dealing with the verbal position in general, and the recipient in particular – as he has been described as an important element in the conversational position. Moreover, this paper aims to know the extent of availability of this ancient study of linguistic concepts, which were considered as one of the innovations of modern linguistic studies in their both literary and linguistic aspects. This research also attempts to highlight the role of the active Recipient and its manifestation in the process of discursive communication, directing the speech, and how the elements of the external context work with the internal ones in achieving the understanding, in general, and the understanding of the recipient, in particular, and in the success of the communicative process between the parties of discourse.The current research concluds, in its extrapolating a set of grammatical provisions in the books of grammatical heritage, that the recipient was present in the minds of ancient grammarians as they were building and directing grammar rules, such as defining or undefining grammatical components, preposing them or postposing and deleting them or mentioning. It is not surprising becaused the real function of language, which is creating communication, cannot be realized without the presence of a recipient.
