26. Main Page For Program In Near Eastern Studies can include courses in both Standard and dialectal arabic (eg Egyptian or Moroccan),the program in near eastern Studies offers courses in literature as well http://classics.binghamton.edu/NearEast/Neareast.htm

A classical as well as modern language with a long cultural legacy, Arabic has been language in world history for more than 1500 years. One can hardly overestimate the importance of the language in contemporary world culture and commerce. Over 250 million people speak one or more types of Arabic in what is known as the "Arab World". Countless others in Asia, Africa, Europe, South America and North America either speak Arabic as a first or second language, or use it as part of their daily religious observances. It is one of only six official languages at the United Nations and is regarded as a "critical language" by the United States government. The language is also the centerpiece of Binghamton University's program in Near Eastern Studies, and an important component of the affiliated program in Middle Eastern and North African Studies ( MENA ). In addition to the Arabic major or minor, which can include courses in both Standard and dialectal Arabic (e.g. Egyptian or Moroccan), the program in Near Eastern Studies offers courses in literature as well as special topics courses dealing with key issues in Arabic and Islamic civilization, past and present. The flexible nature of the program, and in particular the Independent Studies option, allows it to offer a wide range of courses catering to the needs of majors as well as students form other departments, whether graduate or undergraduate.

The programme of Arabic in the Department of Arabic and Near Eastern Studies (formerly the Department of Arabic) is being given a new impetus within the context of Arabic culture and language. Moreover, prospective candidates of this department are now also being offered a new degree in Near Eastern Studies. Courses in the respective languages and civilizations are offered in both degree programmes, with the main emphasis on the former. The language courses purport to bring students into direct contact with the languages concerned via training in grammar, general philology, and literary works in the original version. On the other hand, the civilization courses are aimed at providing the students with an overview of various cultural aspects - such as archaeology, history, religion, and literature - of Semitic and other Near Eastern societies. Students are expected to boost the courses on civilization with a good amount of personal background reading. Arabic.

NES Faculty Staff Students ... Princeton University Department of Near Eastern Studies Languages I f you are one of those who "crave exposure to cultures, beliefs, histories of the earth's people," why not start at the "cradle of civilization" and learn one of the languages of the region. Or, you might want to follow the pipeline dealings in the Caucasus, join Turkish or Israeli entrepreneurs reopening old tradelines to Central Asia, or experience first hand the course of democracy in North Africa. The Languages Princeton offers language instruction in Arabic Hebrew Persian , and Turkish , the four major languages of the Near East. "Near East," however, is a rather arbitrary appellation considering that these languages will also open doors in North Africa, Afghanistan, Baku, or Sinkiang. The population in the Near East might be just under 300 million, but the languages of the region are used by millions more around the globe because of religion and culture. The Department We are a small department with a long and distinguished tradition at Princeton. Our students receive an unusual amount of personal attention. The language program is usually supplemented by study in the Near East or North Africa. The language programs are well articulated vertically, building on prior learning and thus making efficient use of time.

Geographical Areas Areas collected most intensively include all of North Africa and the Middle East from Morocco through Afghanistan. Materials on or from Central Asia, Muslim Europe, and the diaspora communities are collected more selectively; those on or from Pakistan and Muslim India, sub-Saharan Africa, and East Asia are acquired very selectively. Chronological Periods and Subject Areas The collection encompasses a broad chronological spectrum. For the Ancient Near East, materials on the Syro-Palestinian region and Biblical Studies are collected most heavily. Mesopotamia and Egypt are collected more selectively. The Library is highly selective in the acquisition of materials on other areas of the Ancient Near East. Emphasis is on historical, linguistic, literary, and religious material. Archaeological material is collected only if it encompasses these four areas.

Degree Programs > Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations The Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations offers a number of distinct graduate programs in different fields of study, all of which are concerned in some way with the peoples and civilizations of the Near East. The department programs fall into the following broad areas: Akkadian and Sumerian Studies: Students in this field focus on Akkadian and/or Sumerian languages, literature, and history. Applicants are normally expected to have studied at least one Semitic language at the time of application. Course work is aimed at providing a solid linguistic and historical basis for advanced study of ancient texts in their original form. Students working in this field sometimes choose to combine their interest with the study of ancient Israel in the biblical period (see below: Hebrew Bible). Arabic and Islamic Studies: Arabic and Islamic studies emphasize the "classical" medieval period and attempt to give an integral view of Islamic culture in premodern times. Within this general framework the student will normally focus on one of the following fields: Arabic language and literature, Islamic religion, intellectual history (especially philosophy, history of science, and mysticism), institutional history, and Islamic law. A good grounding in classical Arabic is a prerequisite for all other pursuits. Modern Standard Arabic and Colloquial (Egyptian) are taught as service courses.
