Download or read book The Tunsi Alphabet written by Mohamed Bechir Talbi and published by Bechir Talbi. This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author proposes a modern alphabet of “Tunsi”, the mother tongue of the Tunisians. Tunisia is an Afro-Mediterranean country located at the north-eastern tip of Africa. Actually, it is the northernmost country in this continent. The linguistic landscape is diverse. In addition to Arabic which literal variety is the official language, other languages include Tunisian dialectal i.e. Tunsi, Tamazight, Judeo-Tunisian and French. Tamazight is particularly spoken in the Berberophone Regions of the country probably by a hundred thousand people. Regarding Judeo-Tunisian, it remains still alive despite a drastic reduction in the number of its speakers. These do not exceed the two-thousand, in the best of cases. Not to mention that these two languages are mother tongues, in the same way as Tunsi or even French in some cases. This project aims to enhance the status of Tunsi, in order to account for the development of mass media. In other words, our task is to provide a key for reading and writing this language, in order to promote its use as a language of culture and civilization, and insert it into the educational system and formal communications. The reader will discover several choices made by the author. The proposal itself is based on the “Unicode” standard as to the choice of the letters and signs. Also, the author has introduced five letters with diacritics and a number of conventions, including the emphatic letters. As this book contains diacritics, we ask readers to check the compatibility of their devices, whether they are equipped with the right software to display these symbols and letters.

Book On the Mediterranean and the Nile

Download or read book On the Mediterranean and the Nile written by Aimée Israel-Pelletier and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aimée Israel-Pelletier examines the lives of Middle Eastern Jews living in Islamic societies in this political and cultural history of the Jews of Egypt. By looking at the work of five Egyptian Jewish writers, Israel-Pelletier confronts issues of identity, exile, language, immigration, Arab nationalism, European colonialism, and discourse on the Holocaust. She illustrates that the Jews of Egypt were a fluid community connected by deep roots to the Mediterranean and the Nile. They had an unshakable sense of being Egyptian until the country turned toward the Arab East. With Israel-Pelletier's deft handling, Jewish Egyptian writing offers an insider's view in the unique character of Egyptian Jewry and the Jewish presence across the Mediterranean region and North Africa.

Book The History of al    abar   Vol  1

Download or read book The History of al abar Vol 1 written by and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume I of the thirty-eight volume translation of Ṭabarī's great History begins with the creation of the world and ends with the time of Noah and the Flood. It not only brings a vast amount of speculation about the early history of mankind into sharp Muslim focus, but it also synchronizes ancient Iranian ideas about the prehistory of mankind with those inspired by the Qur'an and the Bible. The volume is thus an excellent guide to the cosmological views of many of Ṭabarī's contemporaries. The translator, Franz Rosenthal, one of the world's foremost scholars of Arabic, has also written an extensive introduction to the volume that presents all the facts known about Ṭabarī's personal and professional life. Professor Rosenthal's meticulous and original scholarship has yielded a valuable bibliography and chronology of Ṭabarī's writings, both those preserved in manuscript and those alluded to by other authors. The introduction and first volume of the translation of the History form a ground-breaking contribution to Islamic historiography in English and will prove to be an invaluable source of information for those who are interested in Middle Eastern history but are unable to read the basic works in Arabic.

Download or read book Language Memory and Identity in the Middle East written by Franck Salameh and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2010-04-12 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Language, Memory, and Identity in the Middle East differs from traditional modern Middle East scholarship in that it reevaluates the images and perceptions that specialists-and Middle Easterners themselves-have normalized and intellectualized about the region, often with a patronizing rejection of the legitimacy and authenticity of non-Arab Middle Eastern peoples, and a refusal to attribute the Middle East's pathologies to causes outside the traditional Arab-Israeli and post-colonial paradigms.

  • Release : 2019-01-10
  • ISBN : 9517463715

Download or read book Myth and Mentality written by Anna-Leena Siikala and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent fascination in Finnish folklore studies with popular thought and the values and emotions encoded in oral tradition began with the realisation that the vast collections of the Finnish folklore archives still have much to offer the modern-day researcher. These archive materials were not only collected by scholars, but also by the ordinary rural populace interested in their own traditions, by performers and their audiences. With its myriad voices, this body of source material thus provides new avenues for the researcher seeking to penetrate popular thought. What does oral tradition tell us about the way its performers think and feel? What sorts of beliefs and ideas are transmitted in traditional songs and narratives? Perspectives from the study of mentalities and cultural cognition research provide a framework for investigating these issues. This collection of articles works from the premise that the cultural models which shape mentalities give rise to manifest expressions of culture, including folklore. These models also become embedded in the representations appearing in folklore, and are handed down from one generation to the next. The topics of the book cover age-old myths and world views, concepts of witchcraft and the Devil stretching back to the Middle Ages, and the values and collective emotions of Finnish and Hungarian agrarian communities.

Book The Art Salon in the Arab Region

Download or read book The Art Salon in the Arab Region written by Monique Bellan and published by Ergon. This book was released on 2019-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses the emergence and role of the art salon in the Arab region in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, focusing on Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Lebanon and Iraq. Institutional forms of exhibiting and teaching art emerged in the Middle East and North Africa in late colonial and early post-colonial contexts. The book examines how the salon had an impact on the formation of taste and on debates on art, and discusses the transfers and cultural interactions between the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. Following the institutional model of the Paris salons, art salons emerged in Algiers, Tunis and Cairo starting in the late 1880s. In Beirut, the salon tradition reached its peak only after independence in the mid-twentieth century. Baghdad never had a formal salon, but alternative spaces and exhibition formats developed in Iraq from the late 1940s onwards. As in Paris, the salons in the region often defined the criteria of artistic production and public taste. The impact of the salon also lay in its ability to convey particular values, attitudes and aspirations. At the same time, the values and attitudes promoted by the salon as well as the salon itself were often subject to debate, which led to the creation of counter-salons or alternative exhibition practices. The art salon helps us to understand changes in the art systems of these countries, including the development of art schools, exhibition spaces and artist societies, and gives insight into the power dynamics at play. It also highlights networks and circulations between the Arab region and Europe.
