Book Synopsis The Arabic Script in Africa by : Meikal Mumin

Book excerpt: The Arabic script in Africa contains sixteen papers on the past and present use of Arabic script to write African languages. These writing traditions, which are sometimes collectively referred to as Ajami, are discussed for single or multiple languages, with examples from all major linguistic phyla of Africa but one (Khoisan), and from all geographic areas of Africa (North, West, Central, East, and South Africa), as well as a paper on the Ajami heritage in the Americas. The papers analyze (ethno-) historical, literary, (socio-) linguistic, and in particular grammatological aspects of these previously understudied writing traditions and exemplify their range and scope, providing new data for the comparative study of writing systems, literacy in Africa, and the history of (Islam in) Africa.

Book Synopsis Arabic Script on Christian Kings by : Isabelle Dolezalek
Download or read book Arabic Script on Christian Kings written by Isabelle Dolezalek and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-06-12 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isabelle Dolezalek wurde für Ihre Arbeit mit dem 2018 ICMA Annual Book Prize des International Center of Medieval Art ausgezeichnet. Auf zahlreichen mittelalterlichen Objekten finden sich arabische Inschriften. Nur wenige davon wurden jedoch für lateinisch-christliche Auftraggeber produziert. Die normannischen und staufischen Königsgewänder aus Sizilien bilden eine bemerkenswerte Ausnahme. Welche Assoziationen sollte der Gebrauch arabischer Textilinschriften bei den zeitgenössischen Betrachtern im 12. und 13. Jahrhundert hervorrufen? Wie wurden die Inschriften in späteren Zeiten rezipiert? Die transkulturell und interdisziplinär ausgerichtete Studie beleuchtet praktische und politische Entscheidungen, die der Produktion der sizilischen Textilinschriften zugrunde liegen, und lenkt so das Augenmerk auf ein Ornament, das konventionelle kulturelle Grenzen nicht nur überschreitet, sondern grundlegend in Frage stellt.

Download or read book Letters of Light written by J.R. Osborn and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arabic script remains one of the most widely employed writing systems in the world, for Arabic and non-Arabic languages alike. Focusing on naskh—the style most commonly used across the Middle East—Letters of Light traces the evolution of Arabic script from its earliest inscriptions to digital fonts, from calligraphy to print and beyond. J. R. Osborn narrates this storied past for historians of the Islamic and Arab worlds, for students of communication and technology, and for contemporary practitioners. The partnership of reed pen and paper during the tenth century inaugurated a golden age of Arabic writing. The shape and proportions of classical calligraphy known as al-khatt al-mansub were formalized, and variations emerged to suit different types of content. The rise of movable type quickly led to European experiments in printing Arabic texts. Ottoman Turkish printers, more sensitive than their European counterparts to the script’s nuances, adopted movable type more cautiously. Debates about “reforming” Arabic script for print technology persisted into the twentieth century. Arabic script continues to evolve in the digital age. Programmers have adapted it to the international Unicode standard, greatly facilitating Arabic presence online and in word processing. Technology companies are investing considerable resources to facilitate support of Arabic in their products. Professional designers around the world are bringing about a renaissance in the Arabic script community as they reinterpret classical aesthetics and push new boundaries in digital form.

Book Synopsis Arabic Script in Motion by : M. Javad Khajavi
Download or read book Arabic Script in Motion written by M. Javad Khajavi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-12 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a pioneering study of temporal typography and time-based calligraphic art written in the Arabic system of writing. Inspired by the innate qualities of Arabic script as well as certain practices in Islamic calligraphy and contemporary calligraphic art, the book devises five broad categories of temporal behaviors for Arabic characters in time-based media. It goes onto expand the vocabulary used to describe Arabic script’s appearance in time-based media and proposes a theory to help artists, practitioners, and theoreticians push the boundaries of temporal text-based art. Furthermore, it tackles questions of legibility and readability, and seeks to understand how temporality of Arabic text influences the creation of meaning. This book will therefore appeal not only to animators, designers, and artists, but also to commentators and scholars who deal with temporal text-based art written in Arabic script.

Book Synopsis Definitive scientific proof of the Divinity of the Arabic script by : Nurul Kabir
Download or read book Definitive scientific proof of the Divinity of the Arabic script written by Nurul Kabir and published by Nurul Kabir. This book was released on 2020-09-05 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of my 3 articles published in ResearchGate: 1) Definitive scientific proof of the Divinity of the Arabic script; 2) Evidence of a highly intelligent, built-in scientific design in the Arabic script and 3) Unique biological and scientific connections in novel single letter meanings of the classical Arabic. In these papers I show that the Arabic script is Divine because it uniquely defines the meaning of each words by the shape of the letters and the letters draw a picture of the meaning. Each letter has independent meaning and even the empty spaces or dots of the Arabic script have definitive meanings which appear to have a profound scientific basis related to different human body parts or other natural phenomenon. This pictorial nature of the built-in scientific principles extends to words for atom or butterfly which depict the structure of the atom or butterfly’s life-cycle, unbelievable as it may sound. The findings of this book imply that the theories of language development in humans based on mimicry of animal sounds are incorrect. This book also would greatly simplify the learning of the Arabic language because of the principles of single-letter meanings.
