What is the role of culture in this relationship? I enter this discussion by offering a community-based, cross-generational study on the community of speakers of aṣ-Ṣāniʿ Arabic, members of a Negev Desert Bedouin tribe in Israel. The book presents the results of ten years of fieldwork, the linguistic and cognitive profiles of three generations, and first-hand narration of a century of history, from nomadism to sedentarism, between conservation, resilience, and change. Linguistic and cognitive representations change with lifestyle, culture, and relationships with nature and landscape. Language changes more rapidly than cognitive structures, and the relationship between spatial and temporal representations is complex and multifaceted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Letizia Cerqueglini\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004506233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004506237\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/28\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 462\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.10w x 1.06d","brand":"Letizia Cerqueglini","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48440418435327,"sku":"9789004506237","price":232.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6dcda576-0d55-4914-b424-4c0b55a04337.jpg?v=1777182319","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/space-and-time-in-a-ni-letizia-cerqueglini-9789004506237","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
