La langue berbere au Maghreb medieval constitue un nouvel apport aux etudes historiques et linguistiques dans la mesure ou de nombreux materiaux sur la langue berbere font l'objet d'une monographie specifique. Plusieurs faits de langue sont relies par une trame precise et ils sont reunis afin de mettre en relief les indices textuels puises dans diverses sources ecrites en arabe et en berbere. Dans les quatre parties du livre, il est tour a tour question des apports de la documentation narrative, de la litterature hagiographique et des textes ibadites ainsi que de l'importance des contacts entre le berbere et les langues africaines a travers la litterature narrative et l'epigraphie islamique. Ce livre a ete concu comme un essai documentaire mais egalement afin d'attirer l'attention des chercheurs sur la presence relativement bien documentee de la langue berbere dans les textes produits en milieu arabo-musulman du Moyen Age a l'epoque moderne.
La langue berbere au Maghreb medieval is a new contribution to the historical and linguistic studies in that many materials on the Berber language are the subject of a specific monograph. Several facts of language are connected by an accurate frame and are gathered to highlight textual clues collected from various sources written in Arabic and Berber. The four parts of the book treat contributions of narrative documentation, hagiographical literature and Ibadi texts and the importance of contacts between Berber and African languages through the narrative literature and Islamic epigraphy. This book was conceived as a documentary essay, but also to attract the attention of researchers on the relatively well-documented presence of the Berber language in the texts produced in Arab-Muslim environment from the Middle Ages to Modern era.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
...[...] '...The result is a historical and linguistic study that creates a new and concise framework that manages to supersede the notions of "continuity as against rupture" in the historical continuum and place the Berber language (and the society and civilization of the Berbers) in the context of the Middle Ages history of Islamicate (according to Marshall Hodgson's expression) societies'....[...].
Mohammed Meouak's study is very interesting because it manages, through its meticulous research, to shed light not only on the historical development of the Berber language during the Middle Ages but also on the different ways this language was viewed, understood and contained by the great Medieval Islamic savants. I believe that La langue berbere au Maghreb medieval - Textes, contexts, analyses is destined to become a classic in the domain of the Berber language and civilization studies.
