Professor Baalbaki deals here with the Arabic grammatical tradition
and the analytical methods of the medieval Arab grammarians. The
essays included open new perspectives on the most authoritative
work on Arabic grammar, Sibawayhi's tome or Kitab, on the relation
between grammatical study and other areas of linguistic enquiry
such as Qur'anic readings and stylistics, and on the techniques
which the grammarians employed to explain and rationalize usage and
to incorporate within their system the vast body of dialectal
material which the corpus comprises. The author has sought to
highlight the central position which Arabic grammar enjoys within
the wider Arab culture, and in so doing has examined several
aspects of a legacy which has been revered over a millennium and
which forms to this very day the backbone of the teaching of
grammar in the Arab world.
