Al- Quran Reception in the Inspiration Age Astudy in the light of H. R. Yauss' Reader – Responce Theory

Abstract

The historical context of the revelation of the Qur'an necessitated a reading of the event based on the theory of reception according to Hans Robert Jauss. The revolutionary nature of the text and the reactions that accompanied its revelation revealed the state of its supporters and opponents, as the two lived in a state of reception of the text that could be said to be a state of submission or defiance, so a state emerged. The supporter state of submission to the text appeared, believing in its divine source, relying on an act of perception that did not care about the state of the perceiving, in addition to the ritual reading of the text, which obscured some of the foundations of his understanding. In while the opposing recipient rushed out and tried to demolish the revolutionary structure of the text, relying on his aesthetic perception in the form of an illusion that produced a perception of the similarity of that text to other texts in his culture, so it was said that the text was poetry, sang a soothsayer and that it should be returned this text to their textual culture circle. Others temporize and were not led into the state of illusion created by the act of receiving, as they abandoned defining it as a type, relying on the effect it had on its recipients. It was said about it that it was magic to escape its definition and to urge people not to listen to it.
