From SÄ«bawayhi to ʾAḥmad Ḥasan al-ZayyÄt: New Angles on the Arabic Linguistic Tradition
Series: - Studies in Semitic Languages and Linguistics, Volume: 101
From SÄ«bawayhi to ʾAḥmad Ḥasan al-ZayyÄt: New Angles on the Arabic Linguistic Tradition, a volume edited by Beata Sheyhatovitch and Almog Kasher, brings together nine articles written by leading scholars of the Arabic linguistic tradition. These articles trace the development of the tradition, from SÄ«bawayhi to modern Arabic language academies. The authors shed light on lesser-known aspects of this tradition, such as little-investigated grammatical structures, and problematic spots of the Ê¿amal theory and the grammatical terminology. They explore the disciplineâs relations with stylistics and logic, the Arab grammariansâ influence on Jewish Bible exegesis, and modern applications of medieval Arabic grammatical theory. This volume showcases the richness of the medieval Arabic linguistic literature and the diversity of ideas found within it.
Beata Sheyhatovitch, Ph.D. (2016), Tel Aviv University, is Lecturer at the Department of Arabic and Islamic Studies of that university. She is the author of The Distinctive Terminology in Å arḥ al-KÄfiya by Raá¸Ä« l-DÄ«n al-ʾAstarÄbÄá¸Ä« (Brill, 2018) and of several research articles on the medieval Arabic linguistic tradition.
Almog Kasher, Ph.D. (2007), Bar-Ilan University, is Lecturer at the Department of Arabic of that university. His main field of study is the medieval Arabic grammatical tradition, with an emphasis on its early history, commentaries on SÄ«bawayhi, and pedagogical grammars.
