Abstract

Pre-modern vocalized Arabic manuscripts can reveal a great deal about a variety of linguistic features represented in each text. Recent work has demonstrated the potential that vocalized manuscripts have, specifically for revealing aspects of the phonology of the corpora including the Quran, Judaeo-Arabic, and later ‘Middle Arabic’ texts. Christian Arabic texts, however, have been less frequently studied in this manner. Blau’s grammar of the Christian Arabic of south Palestine in the 9th/10th centuries CE4 draws primarily on unvocalized manuscripts, and therefore the phonological details he provides are inferred primarily from consonantal orthographic patterns. While a few others have focused on Christian Arabic manuscripts from the medieval period,6 there has been little work that undertakes a phonological description of vocalized Christian manuscripts in a thorough and systematic way.

中古基督教-阿拉伯福音手稿中的正体学和音韵学

前现代发声阿拉伯语手稿可以揭示大量的各种语言特征，代表在每个文本。最近的工作已经证明了发声手稿的潜力，特别是在揭示语料库的音韵学方面，包括古兰经、犹太-阿拉伯语和后来的“中阿拉伯语”文本。然而，基督教阿拉伯语文本很少以这种方式进行研究。布劳关于9 /10世纪巴勒斯坦南部基督教阿拉伯语的语法主要取材于未发音的手稿，因此他提供的音韵学细节主要是从辅音正字法模式中推断出来的。虽然其他一些人专注于中世纪时期的基督教阿拉伯语手稿，但很少有工作以彻底和系统的方式对发声的基督教手稿进行语音描述。

期刊介绍： CCO is an international Journal that appears once a year. It aims at publishing papers written in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish, as well as Arabic. The papers should be unpublished and related to Christian production in Arabic, Coptic, Syriac and Ethiopic, although topics dealing with the Christian tradition contained in other languages of Oriental Christianity like Armenian, Georgian and Greek can also be accepted. Likewise, the thematic spectrum of the Journal includes those Rabbinical subjects that concern Christianty. More specifically, the production of Christians in Arabic includes both that developed in Eastern and in Western countries (al-Andalus, northern Africa, Italy, as well as Greece, Cyprus and Turkey). The fields of study covered by this philologically oriented Journal will include the area of literature (in any textual tradition) as well as the area of linguistics. Papers related to other fields like History, Archaeology, History of Art, Liturgy and Sociology will also be accepted.
