Abstract
This paper is expected to explore some parts of Taha Abdurrahman's philosophy, the Moroccanphilosopher, which encloses accumulated aspects in the field of his pedagogicalfoundation and epistemological approach in logic and language. In addition, it presentshis creativity by resorting to various languages, such as English, German, French, Greek.Moreover, I shoud light on the technical, objective and conceptual approaches of Taha. Ialso elaborate on examining the semantics of Taha's terminology and the possibilities ofapplying his approaches in order to attain creativity hand in hand with tradition.By the paper's conclusion, I mention some examples of terms which the philosopher recreates,such as the term of creativity linked to instinct and how the creative thinker establisheshis/her terminology. As well, I provide examples of the term "reason" in which Tahastates essential notions, sets clear distinction between types of reasons, draws limits tothem, and finally calls to reconstruct the "guided reason".
