By means of a detailed analysis of the linguistic treatise of this work she highlights the impact of the philosophical tradition on Islamic legal theory (\u003ci\u003euṣūl al-fiqh\u003c\/i\u003e) in the so-called post-Avicennian era (11th-14th c.). Her main focus lies on a classification of signification (\u003ci\u003edalāla\u003c\/i\u003e) that can be traced back to Ibn Sīnā (lat. Avicenna, d. 1037): a word may signify a meaning by way of congruence (\u003ci\u003emuṭābaqa\u003c\/i\u003e), containment (\u003ci\u003etaḍammun\u003c\/i\u003e) or implication (\u003ci\u003eiltizām\u003c\/i\u003e). The author shows how Faḫr ad-dīn ar-Rāzī develops - on the basis of the Avicennian theory of signification - a hermeneutic toolbox which is not only relevant in the context of Arabic philosophy but also useful for different questions of Islamic legal theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nora Kalbarczyk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004736026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004736023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.10w x 0.69d","brand":"Nora Kalbarczyk","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48799209914623,"sku":"9789004736023","price":162.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-philosophy-of-language-in-nora-kalbarczyk-9789004736023","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
