Описание: The first systematic survey of the language planning and language policy discourse of major Arabic language academies
Surveys the language planning and language policy discourse of the five major Arabic language academies in Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Morocco and Jorndan
Reveals the role of LPLP in constructing and negotiating sociopolitical meanings of language
Examines the discourse of Arabic language academies on diglossia, Arabi(ci)sation and language modernisation
Presents a comparative study of script Romanisation movements in China and the Arabic-speaking world
Explains a mechanism of language-ideology interface in the Arabic-speaking world
Offers a synthesis of theories and perspectives across disciplines to study sociopolitical dimensions of language
This book offers a critical interpretation of how the meta-linguistic LPLP discourse of major Arabic language academies from the turn of the twentieth century until the present day continuously 'burden' language with extra-linguistic, sociopolitical meanings, making it a proxy for the protracted courses of national identity negotiation, counter-peripheralisation in the modern world-system and modernisation. Integrating theories of language symbolism, language indexicality, LPLP, habitus, banal nationalism, world-system and perspectives of Critical Discourse Analysis, the book develops our understanding of the phenomenon and mechanism of the entanglement between language, ideology and sociopolitical change in the Arabic-speaking world and beyond.

Описание: This book investigates the archaeological, epigraphic, and biblical evidence for the course of Ammon's history, setting it squarely within the context of ancient Near Eastern imperialism. Drawing on cross-cultural parallels from the archaeology of empires, Tyson elucidates the dynamic processes by which the local Ammonite elite made the cousins of biblical Israel visible to history. Tyson explains changes in the region of Ammon during the Iron Age II, namely the increasing numbers of locally produced elite items as well as imports, growth in the use of writing for administrative and display purposes, and larger numbers of sedentary settlements; in the light of the transformative role that the Neo-Assyrian and Neo-Babylonian empires played in the ancient Near East. The study also widens the conversation to consider cross-cultural examples of how empires affect peripheral societies.
