Abstract:

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