"[L]e volume revêt un grand intérêt pour tous ceux qui
s’intéressent à la langue arabe et, plus particulièrement, aux
questions linguistiques qu’elle soulève, ainsi qu’à sa longue et
riche tradition grammaticale. La qualité générale des articles,
ainsi que l’érudition des contributeurs, représentent le plus bel
hommage à une figure incontournable dans le domaine, un des
pionniers des études sur l’histoire de la grammaire arabe." –
Francesco Binaghi, in: Revue des mondes musulmans et de la
Méditerranée
"All things considered, the editor has been successful in putting
together a volume, which represents the multifaceted nature of
research on the history of Arabic grammar and Arabic lexicography
and encompasses a wide range of topics as well as of different
theoretical perspectives on these subjects. The papers include
linguistics and socio-historical analyses, detailed case studies
describing the development of different grammatical traditions as
well as discussions about formal aspects of both classical and
modern standard Arabic grammar. Despite this great heterogeneity,
the volume constitutes a coherent collection of studies
demonstrating the strength of the relationship interrelating
language, culture and religion in the arabophone world." – Stefano
Manfredi, in: Wiener Zeitschrift für die Kunde des Morgenlandes 103
(2013): 451-453
