Abstract

Text grammar approach, is one of the latest western linguistic literature theories, using all its intellectual capacity and its literary composition techniques, grammatical and lexical, to tune texts according to: text coherence and cohesion and how the sentences are linked by a consistent theme tying its structure and ideas into dual logical connections that manifest the optimum terminological noble connotations. This all is taken into respect in the text grammar approach to release an enormous fulfilling power of expression for the reader to receive. Al-Jahiz’s “The book of misers” was chosen to reveal the manifestation of those standards in Al-Jahiz’s the linguistic structure to demonstrate that what text grammar approach has introduced, the textual standards and relations between sentences, is deeply rooted across the ancient Arabic eloquent literary heritage
