Description

The reader is introduced to the major issues and themes that have determined the development of the Arabic linguistic tradition. Each chapter contains a short extract from a translated 'landmark' text followed by a commentary which places the text in its social and intellectual context. The chosen texts frequently offer scope for comparison with the Western tradition. The book highlights the characteristics of a tradition outside the Western mainstream with an independent approach to the phenomenon of language and thus stimulates new ideas about the history of linguistics.
