Dealing with issues of artistic style

Abstract

The artistic style is an indispensable element in literature and for the writer, it distinguishes the quality of a good writer from others, and their style distinguishes them from another writer. This humble study aims to address the issues associated with the meanings of artistic style for both Arabic and Western linguists, as well as ancient and modern literary figures and critics. The study also aims to compare language and style, reveal the aspects of good style and its elements, present an analysis of the relationship between literature and style, define art and its importance, advantages, and categories, and highlight the differences between artists and others. The reason for the researcher's choice of this topic is that each individual's culture, with its various levels, is manifested in their choice of appropriate expressions at the right time and place, as the saying: "Every situation has its suitable expression, and every expression has its suitable situation." The researcher adopted an inductive-deductive approach in addressing the issues of artistic style, and the study reached several conclusions, the most important of which are: that artistic style occupies the foremost position among the engines of Arabic literature, and their relationship is inseparable. Furthermore, the comparison between language and style has revealed that each has its own distinct role.
