Krátky popis
A riveting, comprehensive history of the Arab peoples and tribes
that explores the role of language as a cultural touchstone This
kaleidoscopic book covers almost 3,000 years of Arab history and
shines a light on the footloose Arab peoples and tribes who
conquered lands and disseminated their language and culture over
vast distances. Tracing this process to the origins of the Arabic
language, rather than the advent of Islam, Tim Mackintosh-Smith
begins his narrative more than a thousand years before Muhammad and
focuses on how Arabic, both spoken and written, has functioned as a
vital source of shared cultural identity over the millennia.
Mackintosh-Smith reveals how linguistic developments-from
pre-Islamic poetry to the growth of script, Muhammad's use of
writing, and the later problems of printing Arabic-have helped and
hindered the progress of Arab history, and investigates how, even
in today's politically fractured post-Arab Spring environment,
Arabic itself is still a source of unity and disunity.
