Grammar and Semantics in Medieval Arabic
It's Only a Flaming Game
This article explores the online Arabic communication between partisan Algerians, Egyptians and Arabs of other nations during the recent soccer qualification matches for the 2010 World Cup. It assesses the role of computer-mediated communication (CMC) in the online furore that developed in connection with those matches.

‘I am, by God, fit for high positions’ On the political role of women in al-Andalus
Narrating and explaining the fairly emancipated women in al-Andalus has been fraught with ambiguity for the approximately one century of scholarship on the subject.

Taḍmīn, "Implication of Meaning," in Medieval Arabic
This paper assesses the importance of tadmin', implication of meaning, in medieval Arabic literature, and also reflects on its significance for the language today. What is particularly interesting about the term is that once its usage became fully established it was employed not only by some of the grammarians but also a number of scholars of rhetoric and legal theory. A further important aspect of tadmin' addressed by this essay is its relations…
