Conclusion

A topic of such enormous presence in the literary and cultural lives of societies could not be concluded. As long as humanity and speech survive, possibilities of dialogic, multilingual, conversational, and borrowing sites remain a fact of the human condition. Survival entails repetition. This is not opening the gate to textual and documented thefts that take over not only meanings and expressions, which have been the focus of some Arab classicists between the sixth and eighteenth centuries, but also segments and portions of another’s intellectual property. While the early focus of those classicists on meanings and expressions was dismissed by many philologists and critics during those august periods of dialogue, visible self-arrogation of works or pieces and portions of them still provokes condemnation. Even artificial intelligence tries to evade en bloc thefts.
