Abstract:

The collection of articles in this volume is dedicated to Ramzi Baalbaki of the 
American University of Beirut on the occasion of his 60th birthday. The 
volume reflects the central themes of Ramzi Baalbaki's scholarly work: 
history of Arabic grammar, Arabic lexicography, Arabic linguistics, 
comparative Semitics, Arabic epigraphy, and textual editing of classical 
texts. It provides intellectual, literary, and social historians, as well as 
Arabists, philologists, and linguists with an interesting glimpse into the early 
medieval and modern traditions related to the Arabic language, its grammar, 
historical development, and demonstrates its centrality to other fields of 
study such as Qur'ānic studies, adab, folk literature, sufism, and poetry.

Contributors include: Nadia Anghelescu, Georgine Ayoub, Aziz Azmeh,
