- Inhalt
- This course presents an overview of the linguistic context of today s Middle East. The first part introduces the early history of the region, before introducing the three main language groups currently spoken there: Turkic, Semitic (presented by Prof. Lutz Edzard), and Iranian. We then progress to the present language situation, focussing on language ideologies and language planning in today s nation states, and different kinds of societal bilingualism in selected countries of the region. The second part of the course focusses on the lesser-known (minority) languages of the region, and introduces different empirical approaches to investigating minority languages, focussing on the sub-disciplines of language documentation and sociolinguistics.
Students will be required to hold an oral presentation (20 mins.) on a topic to be selected in consultation with the instructor, and to submit a term paper.
