This book was released on 2005-08-25 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Reference Grammar of Modern Standard Arabic is a comprehensive handbook on the structure of Arabic. Keeping technical terminology to a minimum, it provides a detailed yet accessible overview of Modern Standard Arabic in which the essential aspects of its phonology, morphology and syntax can be readily looked up and understood. Accompanied by extensive carefully-chosen examples, it will prove invaluable as a practical guide for supporting students' textbooks, classroom work or self-study, and will also be a useful resource for scholars and professionals wishing to develop an understanding of the key features of the language. Grammar notes are numbered for ease of reference, and a section is included on how to use an Arabic dictionary, as well as helpful glossaries of Arabic and English linguistic terms and a useful bibliography. Clearly structured and systematically organised, this book is set to become the standard guide to the grammar of contemporary Arabic.
Download or read book The Phonology and Morphology of Arabic written by Janet C. E. Watson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first comprehensive account of the phonology and morphology of Arabic. It is a pioneering work of scholarship, based on the author's research in the region. Arabic is a Semitic language spoken by some 250 million people in an area stretching from Morocco in the West to parts of Iran in the East. Apart from its great intrinsic interest, the importance of the language for phonological and morphological theory lies, as the author shows, in its rich root-and-pattern morphology and its large set of guttural consonants. Dr Watson focuses on two eastern dialects, Cairene and San'ani. Cairene is typical of an advanced urban Mediterranean dialect and has a cultural importance throughout the Arab world; it is also the variety learned by most foreign speakers of Arabic. San'ani, spoken in Yemen, is representative of a conservative peninsula dialect. In addition the book makes extensive reference to other dialects as well as to classical and Modern Standard Arabic. The volume opens with an overview of the history and varieties of Arabic, and of the study of phonology within the Arab linguistic tradition. Successive chapters then cover dialectal differences and similarities, and the position of Arabic within Semitic; the phoneme system and the representation of phonological features; the syllable and syllabification; word stress; derivational morphology; inflectional morphology; lexical phonology; and post-lexical phonology. The Phonology and Morphology of Arabic will be of great interest to Arabists and comparative Semiticists, as well as to phonologists, morphologists, and linguists more generally.

Download or read book Land Change Science Political Ecology and Sustainability written by Christian Brannstrom and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent claims regarding convergence and divergence between land change science and political ecology as approaches to the study of human-environment relationships and sustainability science are examined and analyzed in this innovative volume. Comprised of 11 commissioned chapters as well as introductory and concluding/synthesis chapters, it advances the two fields by proposing new conceptual and methodological approaches toward integrating land change science and political ecology. The book also identifies areas of fundamental difference and disagreement between fields. These theoretical contributions will help a generation of young researchers refine their research approaches and will advance a debate among established scholars in geography, land-use studies, and sustainability science that has been developing since the early 2000s. At an empirical level, case studies focusing on sustainable development are included from Africa, Central and South America, and Southeast Asia. The specific topics addressed include tropical deforestation, swidden agriculture, mangrove forests, gender, and household issues.
Download or read book Diseases of the Hearts written by Ibn Taymiyyah and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-05 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine there is only one way to find yourself. Imagine this path is a way to your heart and not to your mind. Imagine that your mind is in your heart when you find yourself. Heart illness is about what you cannot see that is disturbing you and causing you to suffer uncontrollably. The symptoms of heart illness come out in your relationships with other God and people. Nothing worthies the state of nothingness more than the lack of hope that what is bothering your state of affairs will never end. In other words, only you can decide what is curable and what is hopeless.
Download or read book Tropical Deforestation written by Thomas K. Rudel and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The highly publicized obscenity trial of Radclyffe Hall's The Well of Loneliness (1928) is generally recognized as the crystallizing moment in the construction of a visible modern English lesbian culture, marking a great divide between innocence and deviance, private and public, New Woman and Modern Lesbian. Yet despite unreserved agreement on the importance of this cultural moment, previous studies often reductively distort our reading of the formation of early twentieth-century lesbian identity, either by neglecting to examine in detail the developments leading up to the ban or by framing events in too broad a context against other cultural phenomena. Fashioning Sapphism locates the novelist Radclyffe Hall and other prominent lesbians--including the pioneer in women's policing, Mary Allen, the artist Gluck, and the writer Bryher--within English modernity through the multiple sites of law, sexology, fashion, and literary and visual representation, thus tracing the emergence of a modern English lesbian subculture in the first two decades of the twentieth century. Drawing on extensive new archival research, the book interrogates anew a range of myths long accepted without question (and still in circulation) concerning, to cite only a few, the extent of homophobia in the 1920s, the strategic deployment of sexology against sexual minorities, and the rigidity of certain cultural codes to denote lesbianism in public culture.

Book excerpt: Die dem Horn von Afrika vorgelagerte Inselgruppe Sokotra gilt als eine der isoliertesten Landmassen in der Erdgeschichte. Ihre einzigartige Planzen- und Tierwelt, darunter zahlreiche tertiäre Reliktformen, bewog einige Wissenschaftler dazu, von einem "lebenden Museum" oder dem "Galapagos des Indischen Ozeans" zu sprechen. Von den über 800 bisher auf Sokotra nachgewiesenen Pflanzenarten gelten 30 % als endemisch. Auch unter den Tieren finden sich zahlreiche endemische, durch ihre Anpassung an die Bedingungen des Inselökosystems besonders interessante Arten. Ausgehend von einer Darstellung der naturräumlichen Bedingungen, Besonderheiten der Pflanzenwelt sowie der Lebensbedingungen der Inselbewohner erfolgt im Hauptteil des Buches eine Übersicht zur Tierwelt der Inselgruppe. Dabei werden auf 760 Farbaufnahmen einige hundert Arten abgebildet, viele davon einmalig.

Its not perfect, but im sure you will be able to understand the book. I figured its better to have an artificial translation than to have none at all. This book is a literary debate between AL-Razi and Ibn Taymiyyah, the topic is whether God is located in a direction or not. Very important book for Salafis.
