The contribution of sociolinguistics to the Arabic language

Publicado el 10 de diciembre 2021
Reem Bassiouney, a writer and professor at the American University of Cairo, will give the ninth lecture in the Aula Árabe Universitaria programme. On 17 December, at 1:00 p.m. in Madrid, and on our YouTube channel. Casa Árabe is organizing this ninth session in the series Aula Árabe Universitaria 3, to be given by Reem Bassiouney, a writer and professor at the American University of Cairo, in collaboration with the Master’s Degree in Intercultural Communication, Translation and Interpreting in Public Services given at the University of Alcalá de Henares. Introducing the event will be Mohana Sultan, a professor and the Arabic coordinator of the Master’s program. Moderating the session is Olivia Orozco, Casa Árabe’s Training and Economics Coordinator. The conference will analyze the impact of sociolinguistics on study of the Arabic language, focusing on the relationship between bilingualism, ideology and language policy in the political history of the Arab countries. In her discussion, Reem Bassiouney will start by explaining the emergence of sociolinguistics as a relatively modern science, as well as the reasons for and context of this emergence, so as to address some of the research methods and theories that have had an effect on this science over the years. Her talk will revolve around two important themes: on the one hand, bilingualism and, on the other, code-switching, exploring the theories which explain these two aspects with examples from the Arab world in particular. After this, she will address the topic of Arabic dialects and their relationship both with classical Arabic (al-fusha) and with each other, to discuss an important core area of sociolinguistics with examples: language politics and its relationship with the political history of countries in the Arab world. Last of all, she will analyze the relationship between ideologies and the implications of languages and dialects in the Arab world by discussing examples and theories. The conference will bring the international gathering to a close “Teaching the Arabic language in Spain and Europe,” organized by the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM), Casa Árabe and CIHAR, with the cooperation of the Diplomatic Mission of the Arab League in Madrid, on the dates of December 16 and 17 at the UAM and Casa Árabe, to mark the celebration of 2021 as the International Year of the Arabic Language, and World Arabic Language Day on December 18.
