Al-Balagha Al-Aliya (High Rhetoric): The Science of Meanings. Rhetoric is the art of discourse. Ibn al-Athir says: "The entire pivot of rhetoric is to draw the adversary into submission and acceptance, for there is no use in presenting beautiful, brilliant ideas or subtle, precise meanings unless they are brought forth to achieve the speaker's objective." This book represents an Islamic methodology in rhetoric and criticism.
