ARAB 351 - Languages of the Middle East and North Africa3 Credit Hours
This course is a survey of the languages that have been written and spoken in the Middle East and North Africa from 3100 BCE to the present. The course begins with the first attested language, Sumerian, but focuses especially on the Semitic languages such as Akkadian, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Arabic. Each language is situated historically, culturally, and linguistically, including topics such as language and politics, sociolinguistics, and dialectology.
(Same as HEBR 351 , LING 351 , and MEST 351 .)
