<div><br></div><div>Abstract:</div><div><br></div><div>This is the first monograph-length volume entirely devoted to the theoretical and</div><div>empirical issues raised by the definition of 'word' and related concepts in Arabic,</div>
<div>both at the historical and synchronic level. Some of the best-known scholars in</div><div>the field of Arabic linguistics debate such issues as the technical definition of</div><div>words and morphemes in the Arabic grammatical and rhetorical traditions, the</div>
<div>theoretical status of the root and its interactions with morphology, the analysis</div><div>of word in the computer treatment of Arabic texts, some relevant phenomena in</div><div>the contact of Arabic with other languages. The result is a fresh portrait of some</div>
<div>of the most interesting research currently under way in Arabic linguistics from</div><div>different theoretical and methodological viewpoints.</div><div><br></div><span>------------------------------</span><span>------------------------------</span><span>--------------</span><br>
