摘要：To readers familiar with Ibn ʿArabī’s thinking, the title of this paper may
seem over-ambitious. His conception of language and the mystical science
of the letters that is its corollary are certainly one of the central, and at the
same time the most synthetic and abstruse, parts of the Shaykh al-Akbar’s
work and several volumes of analytical study could justifiably be devoted to
them. It is therefore not my intention to deal with this huge topic in an
exhaustive fashion but simply to present an outline of it and make some
modest contributions to our understanding. I shall examine the question of
language first of all in relation to the origins of existence, then in relation to
the Revelation, and finally in relation to the spiritual role of man.
