This volume is a collection of articles written by over than forty scholars who work in the field of Arabic dialectology. All these articles are revised versions of papers read on the 9 th Conference of the Association Internationale de Dialectologie Arabe (AIDA) held in Pescara in March 2011. The variety of dialects represented in the volume engage various issues in Arabic dialectology, such as sedentary and Bedouin dialects, sociolinguistic phenomena, and the written dimension, investigated from both synchronic and diachronic perspectives. The broad range of meaningful subjects tackled in this book offers an important contribution to the current debates on general linguistics and sociolinguistics, Arabic linguistics, Arabic literature, Semitic and Islamic studies
