The importance of this intervention, entitled "Deviation in Literary Discourse Between Rhetoric and Modern Stylistics," lies in a comparative descriptive analysis of the expressive dimensions encompassed by the concept of deviation at the level of the literary text. Deviation refers to a departure from the conventional standard; a good style is one that diverges from the original language and its customary manner, constituting a violation of the ideal level of literary discourse. Today, this concept has garnered significant attention in linguistic, rhetorical, critical, and Arabic linguistic studies, reflecting both acceptance and appreciation for its descriptive capabilities and its relevance to Arab culture, both in heritage and modernity. This study also considers the speaker's ability to convey intended meanings to the recipient. My intervention compares the issue of deviation between rhetorical studies and modern stylistic studies, with rhetoric here referring to the classical artistic standards that provided a foundation for describing texts, critiquing them, and evaluating their aesthetics based on various verbal and semantic considerations.
