The problems of studying the works of Al-Farabi from the pragmatic aspect

Abstract

The article considers pragmatic features of Al-Farabi’s works and the meaning of the term «personality» in the use of the author. Although Al-Farabi’s works are widely used in various fields of science such as astronomy, physics, literary criticism, geography, etc., they are not sufficiently examined with point of view of language features and style. The significance of the words and phrases used by the author at that time, and the current use of the author, the specific character of the author’s style choice are studied from the point of view of a pragmatic aspect. One of the main factors in the idea of the author and the main idea of the work is style. The peculiarities of differentiation of pragmatic methods and categories used by the author are proved based on the opinions of various scientists. Various examples from al-Farabi’s treatises on pragmastilistic features were presented and a conclusion was drawn.
