Abstract Constructive criticism has asignificant impact on the scientific development which leads to the flourishment of the country’s whole wealth, i.e. its technology. As the emergence, revolution, and maturity of the Arabic language can be regarded as the problems which demand a particular heed, the research therein also seems very valuable. In this paper, the book “A’taTawor A’naHwi Le’loghate Al’Arabiy” written by Bergeshter Eser(1994) and researched and translated by Ramazaan AbdA’ta’waab has been put into criticism. Besides mentioning other semiotic languages such as Hebrew, Akkadian, Aramaic, and Habashi, this book has studied the Arabic syntax from the historical and linguistic viewpoints. Through the quantitative and qualitative analyses, it was understood that the book seeks two major objectives: first, studying the Arabic syntax from the historical viewpoint, that is, in terms of emergence, major letters, types of the sentence, the basic [of the language], and the changes applied to it over time; second, studying it structurally, which occurs in the linguistic scope. On the whole, this book has paved the way for the development of the Arabic syntax. In addition, it could reasonably be suggested that this book be included into the curriculum of Arabic language and literature at the PhD level for the course of Research into Arabic Word Formation and Syntax especially in Iran’s universities.

The results show that, in spite of its advantages, such as a completely legible font, ideal layout and technical performance of some authors of this book, it has many quantitative and qualitative disadvantages that if it is used as a reference for the curriculum, it would be very weak and incomplete. Some of the quantitative disadvantages of the book are very little use of punctuation marks and not having index, no list of references and the bibliography of the history of literature at the end of the book. Besides, some of the qualitative disadvantages of the book are not being reprinted after 18 years, thematic and content deficiencies of the titles, irregularity and incoherence of the text, inadequate citation, lack of up-to-date and valid resources and also defective presentation of the titles and wrong inference.

Abstract The text linguistics is one of that fields that has had a great impact on Translation Studies. In many definitions, translation has been defined as the replacement of a text in one language by a text in the target language, and a lot of researchers tried to use theories of text linguistics in translational investigation.  Accordingly, Yousof Noor Ewath tried in a communicative perspective to provide a short history of text linguistics and translation studies in his book "Elmonnas wa Nazariyat Al-Tarjomah" (The Text Linguistics and Translation Theory) and to explain the relationship between these two fields. So at the end of both book's two chapters, he has raised his theory of these fields and named it: (Nazariyat Al-Enziyahat) the shifts of theory. He recognizes three types of meaning in texts as Obligatory Meaning, Extended Meaning and Accessory Meaning, and based on the quantity of these different meanings in texts, it is divided into three types: Literary texts, non-literary text, and Fuzzy texts or Hybrid texts. In his opinion, with regard to this division and differences between each of these types, an appropriate translational strategy should be chosen.
This paper with a descriptive-analytic method tries to review this book and  to analyze its appearance and content and to assess the degree of realization of book's goals That are, to write a text linguistic approached introduction to translation studies and also tried to study the compatibility of this work contents with Arabic language and literature field.
 The most important result of current study is as follows two reasons caused this book not to be a comprehensive introduction to the text linguistics and translation studies: first the book was published long time ago, and secondly, the book has not mentioned all the main tendencies of the two fields and lacks all the necessary topics related to curriculum which prevents this book from being considered as the main source of translation theory courses, but paying attention to the new ideas and a strong theoretical framework can present the  innovative research ideas and new thinking way about the translation process.

Therefore, the author has made impressive strides towards the simple andaccurate understanding of the critical content of this book by its addresses.

Abstract The critique of the book can be considered as an extension of the writer's efforts in providing research results. Critique is the essence of the research, and this article seeks to review the book "The Seasons of the Transfiguration and Al-Tarib", written by and Egyptian writer and interpreter, Mohammed al-Batal. The book consists of eight chapters that deal with various subjects in the field of translation from Arabic to English and vice versa, and although all of these chapters, are the subject of an article, they are scattered.  They are also dedicated to specialty in translation. The area where the author pays more attention to is the field of terminology, which is a large part of the book, and even a chapter of the book forms a small culture of press terminology. Considering that books on translation theory have a relatively long history and even a few books have been published in Arabic, the book "The Fosoolfi al-tarjomah va al- tarib" was expected from Mohammad al-Batal which was published in 2007 to deepen the field of translational studies, but a glance at the book's list of sources suggests that the author has an extensive research effort. He has not done much about translation technology and has written more practical experiences.

Abstract The book “Fi al-nass al-adabi: Dirasah uslubiyah ihsaiyah” written by Dr Saad Moslouh and published in 1993, is one of the foremost and significant works in the area of Arabic studies, dealing with statistical stylistics. In the current study, the book was analyzed in terms of form and content. The focus of formal analysis revolved around cover artwork, typography, page layout, and typing errors. The content analysis, on the other hand, incorporated eloquence of expressions, order of the issues, resources, referencing, innovations and analyses and reviews of them. The results of the analyses indicated that since this work has been published almost 20 years ago, it has several deficits in terms of formal features particularly typography and referencing. It should be noted that, in terms of content, despite the novelty of the concepts in the area of Arabic studies, the underlying theoretical issues of the book are mainly adapted from western experts. Thus, it should be considered that the main innovation of the book is adapting the Western concepts and implementation of the related models and patterns in Arabic texts and literature.
