It is the first application of Cultural-Linguistic methodology in research on the language and culture of al-Jahiliyya Arabs. Consequently, it is one of the first cultural cognitive linguistic studies on Classical Arabic semantics and lexicology. The book examines the use of Arabic honor-related lexis in the oral-formulaic pre-Islamic poetry, and interprets lexical expressions as encoding cultural conceptualizations: cognitive schemata and categories, and conceptual metaphors and metonymies. An exhaustive description of pre-Islamic Arabic cultural models of honor and social evaluation is offered alongside semantic frames for discourses of honor available to pre-Islamic Arabs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eEarly Arabic Poetry and its language as an index for self-identification; methodology of Cultural Linguistics; anthropological data on honor; pre-Islamic Arabic code of honor: being \u003ci\u003ekarīm\u003c\/i\u003e; generosity-honorability metonymy; \u003ci\u003ekarāma\u003c\/i\u003e-honor paid to equals; \u003ci\u003eḥasab\u003c\/i\u003e-value of honorability; \u003ci\u003ešaraf\u003c\/i\u003e-honor-precedence is elevated place; \u003ci\u003eˁirḍ\u003c\/i\u003e is personal honor; embodiment of \u003ci\u003eˁirḍ\u003c\/i\u003e is body; shame-dishonor model; model of honor; model of social evaluation of worthiness; Arabic-European contrast\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51044561879383,"sku":"9783631882900","price":34.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783631882900.jpg?v=1750962020","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-concept-of-honor-in-the-language-of-early-arabic-poetry-a-cultural-linguistic-study-9783631882900","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
