It has even opened up to other sciences and several domains knowledge and is considered a paralinguistic science. Due to the importance of this Western theory, a lot of scholars have tried&nbsp; to establish rules for it in the Arab cognitive achievement be it in grammar, philosophy or …... Rhetoric has taken a wide range of these studies. In this study, we will try to highlight the rhetorical premises in the study of discourse from the Discourse’s rhetoric in general and Quranic discourse in particular and how to build the rhetorical concepts that contributed to the establishment of the Arab rhetorical curriculum according to the overlap of several cognitive aspects. In the other hand, the study of rhetorical pragmatics in order to establish its achievements or to tackle its procedural mechanisms. In addition, this epistemological study aims at defining the cognitive junctions starting from their subject. We were hoping that the study is based on these two themes: Foundational and authenticating studies would result in a theory of interpretative and procedural efficiency while preserving the distinctiveness of each science.</p> Ismail Habchi, Zuhair Boukhair Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/116 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Dialectic of patterns in the poetic experience of Abdelhamid Shakil The Diwan of "The Temptations of Embers and Rubies" is a model https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/117 <p>The poetic writing in The Seduction of Embers and Rubies by Abdelhamid Shakil draws its material from the Sufi experience, because it operates on a space furnished with spirituality.

In fact, the descriptive method describes the linguistic phenomena as they exist without explanation or justification of phenomena by the researcher. This explains why their facilitation method focuses on the necessity of abolition of analogy, cause and factor. But, this means the abolition of the methodological principles of Arabic grammar and makes them contradict the Arabic grammar method. In reality, the Arabic grammarians not only described the linguistic phenomena as required by the descriptive method, but also explained and justified all the irregular phenomena</p> Mohammed kheribeche Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/122 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 The manifestations of religious intertextuality in the poetry of Imam Al-Shafi’i https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/123 <p>&nbsp;The subject of this research deals with the manifestations of religious intertextuality in the poetry of Imam Shafi’i, and that is through a careful study of his poetry collection, which disclosed the religious sources from which the poet was taken. So he took from them Quranic meanings and religious ideas.While reading his poetry, the reader finds himself remembering either a Quranic verse, a noble hadith, or religious poetry. We started the title with "Manifestations"; Because the reader of the Diwan from the first sight will find him rich and saturated with religious intertextualities, but this remains dependent on the extent of the reader’s prudence and intelligence, and from this point we approached the concept of intertextuality in ancient Arab criticism, and the theory of intertextuality among modern scholars, both Western and Arab, as we shed light on the sources of religious intertextuality in poetry Imam Al-Shafi’i, which is represented in (the Qur’anic intertextuality, and the Prophet’s intertextuality).</p> Yasmine Boukerdouh, Leila Djoudi Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/123 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Verbal and nominal sentences and their significance in the prison poetry of Ibn Ammar al-Andalusi. - A study of prison poetry samples- https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/124 <p>"Ibn &nbsp;Ammar" employed in his poetry in prison the linguistic elements which he saw as an ability to advance his poetry , make it more sedate and precise on the one hand, as well as to deliver his message to those who would save him from his prison, which is charged with semantics that protect the intended meaning and deliver it in the best condition. This is guaranteed, and there is no doubt that the situation in which the poet lives, and the transformation that occurred in his life, made him resort to phrasal verbs, since the actions are more capable of depicting the emotional state and an expression of the movement and transformation that characterizes his new life while inside the prison walls he suffers from loneliness and pain of oppression and a life of humiliation after he was living a life of glory, kings and princes, and what proves this is his use of present tense verbs more than other times because he is about to talk about a bitter experience he lives and seeks to change in the future with the help of those who sent his poems to them as messages that convince them of this, at the expense of the nominal sentences that suggest stability and is the opposite of what they aspire to</p> Ali Ameur, Kadour Rahmani Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/124 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 The structure of the Arabic haiku poem https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/125 <p>The Haiku has become part of Arab poetry, after nearly three generations of reception, and with great difficulty the Arab taste has changed, through those generations, from the classical poetry to the interactional one.

The dictionary is a tool that no scholar dispenses with, no matter where he is active, it is a vast world in which the student finds his stray, a means of learning and surrounding the language, and sounding its depths, in drawings, colors and shapes, and therefore the problem that remains on the table: how do autistic children interact with what is linguistic, and a photographer in the school dictionary? How do images in the school dictionary enrich by word type on the one hand, and by the area to which it belongs on the other? What aspects are the focus of the depicting of words and objects and why are lexical units taken care of without others?

This is going to be explored through the novel <em>Bridge to Terabithia</em> (1977) by Katherine Paterson who incorporated topics that are traditionally considered difficult for the juvenile reader; like the use of swear words and discussing the topic of death. Accordingly, the study throws light upon this phenomenon and whether it is suitable for children to be exposed to such an inappropriate language and to face such challenging issues. The results display that teaching children how to deal with sensitive issues helps in their growing up and the profane language does not always act in deviation but also serves a stylistic effect in the story.</p> HOUARI Rayhane , HADJOUI Ghouti Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/141 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Is the Algerian EFL classroom diverse in terms of multiple intelligences? https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/142 <p>Since the shift to learner-centeredness in educational settings, Multiple Intelligences Theory has captured the attention of many practitioners as a theory that endorses learners’ uniqueness, and which promotes diversity in the classroom in terms of materials and instructions. This study attempts to show the variety of Multiple Intelligences profiles of an Algerian secondary school EFL class in which all learners receive the same instructions and are exposed to the same limited materials without taking into account the variety of their Multiple Intelligences profiles. Multiple Intelligences Inventory by McKenzie (1999-2017) was used to collect the needed data. The results show that the class’s Multiple Intelligences profile is indeed rich and diverse. Linguistic intelligence, as well as spatial intelligence are predominant but all types of intelligences are present in the same classroom. This indicates that the Algerian classroom is not homogeneous in terms of intelligences, and that should be taken into consideration in future material and instruction design. Learners’ differences should always be celebrated in the EFL classroom</p> Ouissal Zaimi , Sara Merrouche Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/142 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Women’s (Dis) Empowerment in the Contemporary Discourse of Neoliberal Capitalism https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/143 <p>The contemporary world has witnessed an unprecedented spread of feminist anti-patriarchal discourse that have narrowly perceived women’s empowerment and liberation as a pure struggle against men for more commensurate economic opportunities and gender equality. This has brought about the incorporation of the female figure into the global institutions of the capitalist market as never before. Subsequently, in their quest for empowerment, women end up subject to the double burden of both productive and reproductive labor. Accordingly, this paper is an attempt to revisit the common orthodox perceptions of empowerment and resistance in the world of global capitalism. Endorsing a feminist political economic perspective represented by leading theorists and critics like, Maria Mies, Cynthia Enloe, Elizabeth Kammarck Minnich and others, this research is an attempt to engender the hegemonic capitalist ‘knowledge’ by exposing the suppressed ‘exploitative’ and ‘oppressive’ meanings that are attached to women’s empowerment in the contemporary age of globalization. Furthermore, this paper is a contribution to the concurrent literature on feminist empowerment and resistance. It calls for an inclusive gender perspective to the understanding of neoliberal capitalism so as to pave the way to modes of resistance and empowerment that subvert the dysfunctional meanings propagated by the system’s neoliberal knowledge</p> Wissame Boukemache, Azzedine Bouhassoun Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/143 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Promoting Strategic Partnerships in Obama's Asia-Pacific National Security Strategy: The Case of the US-India Defence Cooperation https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/144 <p>This paper aims to clarify the significance of strategic partnerships in the Obama administration’s national security policy with emerging powers in the Asia-Pacific region, with a particular focus on India. Through an analysis of the 2010 and 2015 national security strategy documents, the study highlights the importance of collaboration with India. The research also explores how China's rise contributed to the advancement of US-Indian cooperation, specifically in defence. Recognizing the interdependence of national and global interests, the Obama administration prioritized international cooperation on shared concerns, as evidenced by its rebalancing strategy for the Asia-Pacific region. Given their common concerns, the strategic partnership between the US and India, particularly in defence, assumed critical importance. The paper concludes that US-Indian defence cooperation is essential for safeguarding their shared interests in the Asia-Pacific region.</p> Rima BADI , Abdelhak ELAGGOUNE Copyright (c) 2023 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://review.univ-oeb.dz/ojs.nass/index.php/jen/article/view/144 Thu, 16 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000
