The Rhetoric Of Political Discourse In Abdelhamid Ibn Badis Writings

Abstract

Political discourse is a part of literature, as it represents the center of argumentative eloquence, and embodies the linguistic space in which all issues of managing civil life are published and simplified.

His bet is not to carry a message or spread an ideology, but to confirm the identity of a preacher. It is a rhetorical text that works to immediately influence the listener by raising a number of thorny issues and addressing them with rational and emotional arguments.

Abdel Hamid Ibn Badis and his association believe that if a religious scholar is not knowledgeable about politics or working in it, then he is not a scholar. The Badisian political discourse, with its argumentative eloquence, has succeeded in convincing the Algerian people and enlightening their awakening, in inducing them to believe in their patriotism and empowering the Algerian personality, i.e. for reasons of unity, and confronting what threatens it with simple rhetorical language and scenes that connect the mind and the passion under the pretext of citizenship.
