Examining over 160 treatises written by 85 grammarians, lexicographers and Qurʾān commentators, the author defines and characterizes the opinions of medieval Arab grammarians concerning this mood in the verbal system of Classical Arabic. Special attention is given to the prominent early grammarians Sībawayhi (d. ca. 180\/796) and al-Farrāʾ (d. 207\/822), who represent the Schools of al-Baṣra and al-Kūfa respectively.\u003cbr\u003eThe analysis of the grammarians' views enables the author to draw several important conclusions and hypotheses on the syntactic environments of the subjunctive mood, the dialectal differences relating to its employment and the historical changes and developments it underwent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arik Sadan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004232958\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004232952\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/09\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.52h x 6.26w x 0.99d","brand":"Arik Sadan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49082470236415,"sku":"9789004232952","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-subjunctive-mood-in-arabic-arik-sadan-9789004232952","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
