Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox organization The Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo (Шаблон:Lang-ar) is a language academy for Arabic created in Cairo, Egypt in 1932 by Fuad I of Egypt.[1][2] It publishes Al-Mu'jam al-Kabir (The Great Dictionary) and Шаблон:Interlanguage link (The Intermediary Dictionary), two of the most important dictionaries of the Arabic language.[3][4][5]

Name

It was founded as the Royal Academy for the Arabic Language (Шаблон:Lang majma' al-lughah al'arabiyyah al-malaki) in 1932.[6] In 1938, it became the Fu'ad I Academy for the Language.[6] After the 1952 free officers movement and the end of the monarchy, it became the Academy of the Arabic Language.[6]

Background

The academy's first permanent secretary, Шаблон:Interlanguage link, chronicled in an article entitled [History of the Academy] (Шаблон:Lang), published in the first issue of the academy's journal (Шаблон:Lang) in 1934, the attempts of Arab men of letters to establish a regulatory institution for the Arabic language—none of which was successful.[7]

The Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo was born out of ideas and movements of late 19th century Egypt, including: Pan-Islamism, Pan-Arabism, and the Nahda.[7] It was modeled after language academies in the Arab world and abroad, most notably the Institut d'Égypte.[7]

Schools

In 1826, Muhammad Ali sent a scholarly mission from Egypt to France, including Rifa'a at-Tahtawi, who later proposed the establishment of Madrasat al-Alsun in 1836.[7][8] Dar al-Ulum, established in 1872, educated Azhari scholars in modern sciences.[7] The works of translation produced by institutions like these introduced some of the earliest modern problems for the Arabic language.[7]

Presses

Muhammad Ali established the Amiri Press or Bulaq Press, the first printing press in Egypt, in 1821.[7] It was followed by others, such as al-Matba'a al-Ahliya al-Qabtiya (Шаблон:Lang) in 1860, Wadi an-Nil (Шаблон:Lang) in 1866, Gam'iyat al-Ma'arif (Шаблон:Lang) in 1868, al-Ahram (Шаблон:Lang) in 1875, Sharikat Tab' al-Kutub al-'Arabiya (Шаблон:Lang) 1898.[7]

History

Establishing a language academy was proposed in Egyptian Parliament in the parliamentary year 1928-1929.[7]

On December 31, 1932 (14 Sha'ban of 1351 of the Hijra), the Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo was established by royal decree issued from the Abdeen Palace, residence of Fuad I of Egypt.[7] Also involved were President of the Council of Ministers Ismail Sidky, Minister of Education Muhammad Hilmi Isa, and likely also the previous minister of education Ahmed Lutfi el-Sayed and Шаблон:Interlanguage link.[7] Its constitution was inspired by the constitution of the Académie Française.[7]

The Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo was established for the purposes of addressing urgent issues facing the Arabic language and of adapting it to suit the needs of the 20th century.[7] One of the early tasks of the Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo was to publish a historical dictionary of Arabic, tracing the changes of meanings and uses of Arabic words over time, though this was not achieved.[1]

Selecting the founding members

King Fuad I of Egypt—who wanted an institute in the image of his regime, in its regard toward modern science and its domestic and foreign interests—played a major role in the selection of the academy's members.[7] The ulama, scholars, and intellectuals he chose were modernists and politically loyalists, moderates, or neutral.[7] These included:

Political figures

Academics

Azharis

Eastern members

Orientalists

Headquarters

At its inception, the Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo was housed in the palace of Hussayn Riad at 1 Ibn Arhab Street in Giza, in front of the Egyptian University (now Cairo University).[7] It later moved to 110 Шаблон:Interlanguage link, a building that was then demolished to build a bank.[7] It finally moved to a villa at 26 Murad St in Giza.[7]

Inauguration

The Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo was inaugurated by Muhammad Hilmi Isa Pasha on January 30, 1934 (14 Shawwal 1352 of the Hijra), with all of the academy's members in attendance with the exception of Hassan Husni Abd al-Wahhab.[7]

Arabic script reform

In 1936, the academy, prompted by issues arising in the transliteration of names in European scripts into Arabic, discussed the possibility of reforming Arabic script.[10] This discussion was further expanded in 1938 with regard to the technical difficulty of printing vowels in Arabic at the time.[10] The discussions were published to engage a wider audience, and in 1945 a competition with a £E1,000 prize was announced calling for proposals.[10] The discussions continued for a number of years but no plan for reform of Arabic script was endorsed.[10] These discussions did, however, lead to the definition of پ pe and ڤ ve to represent p and v.[10]

Шаблон:Interlanguage link, Ahmed Lutfi el-Sayed, and Taha Hussein served as presidents.[3]

Шаблон:Interlanguage link was the first woman to become a member of the Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo.[11][12]
