Grammatical Investment in the Interpretation Books of the Holy Quran Between Formal Analysis and Functional Analysis (Part Two)

Abstract

This research aims to examine the grammatical investment texts in the interpretation books of the Holy Quran in order to compare and distinguish between what goes back to formal grammatical analysis and what goes back to functional grammatical analysis. Our purpose behind the comparison of these two analyses is to show the extent to which the science of exegesis needs functional analysis rather than the formal one, as the former deals with texts and words in terms of discourse with communicative purposes and specific contextual connotations, which responds to the requirements of exegesis its graphical needs that respects the movement of meaning in representing facts and in highlighting the peculiarities of the Quranic expression, while the latter does not affect the facts and objects of meaning, but rather it restricts its subject  to the study of static patterns of grammar and its abstract typical forms, and it neglects the meanings of grammar in its functional actualizations, and in its particular concrete representations.
