Language and Conflict in the Middle East Suleiman, Yasir Additional Author mixed material bibliography Cambridge, New York Cambridge University Press 2004 en English

Text

xiii + 270hlm; 15x23cm Yasir Suleiman's book considers national identity in relation to language, the way in which language can be manipulated to signal political, cultural or even historical difference. As a language with a long-recorded heritage and one spoken by the majority of those living in the Middle East in a variety of dialects, Arabic is a particularly appropriate vehicle for such an investigation. It is a also, as Suleiman's analysis reveals, an alternative and penetrating device for exploring the conflicts of the Middle East, the diversity of its peoples and the diversity of their viewpoints. konflik 303.6 0521546567 PERPUSTAKAAN STFT WIDYA SASANA Jln.
