Summer Intensive Elementary Arabic
Summer Session 1:  May 17th-June 25th, 1999.
The University of Pennsylvania

This an intensive, full year course in Modern Standard Arabic, the Arabic
used in formal discourse in the contemporary Arab world.  Upon successful
completion of the course, students will be able to read and understand
texts on familiar topics, carry on simple conversations, and engage in
 basic written correspondence.  The course will cover the same material as
Penn's year-long Elementary Arabic course (AMES 030), and will prepare
students for Penn's second-year course, Intermediate Arabic (AMES 031).


 If there is interest, graduate students studying medieval Islamic
 civilization or comparative Semitic studies will be introduced to
 bibliographic tools for the study of early and classical Arabic.
