Alucen Learning (www.alucen.com) is proud to announce two new Arabic  
titles to help instructors integrate language and culture in an  
exciting new way. I hope that you will take a moment to review these  
outstanding teaching and learning resources. Please let me know if you  
have any questions or would like to receive an examination copy of  
either book.

I hope that you will find these materials to be an excellent  
complement to your existing program and a stimulating way to add  
authentic materials in a cultural context.

Perspectives: Arabic Language and Culture in Film
by Zainab Alwani, Nasser M. Isleem and Mbarek Sryfi
Based on nine highly acclaimed feature films from Palestine, Egypt and  
Morocco, Perspectives is designed for students of Arabic language and  
culture at the intermediate to advanced level. It may be used as  
either the primary text in a culture, conversation or film course or  
an enriching supplement to any existing language program.

With Perspectives, students will benefit from the exposure to  
authentic materials, develop linguistic skills in context, broaden  
vocabulary (both MSA and colloquial) and enrich their cultural  
understanding through these highly acclaimed films.

Popular Proverbs: An Entrance to Palestinian Culture
by Nasser M. Isleem
This monumental collection of over one thousand proverbs from  
Palestine and across the Arabic-speaking world provides an informative  
and entertaining treasure trove of knowledge for today's students or  
anyone with interest in this remarkable culture.

Written specifically for language instructors and scholars, Popular  
Proverbs not only offers students the opportunity to improve their  
linguistic abilities but provides a deeper cultural understanding with  
a unique perspective on the language, history, values and beliefs  
shared among Arabs.

Available with interactive audio program.
