Abstract

This article will analyze the use of the noun nafs ‘soul’ with the first-person possessive pronominal suffix, through the corpus of Andalusi texts gathered in Nafḥ al-ṭīb by the North-African author Shihāb al-Dīn al-Maqqarī (d. 1632). The aim is threefold: one, to identify patterns of the use of nafsī in the Nafḥ, their semantic performance, and diachronic evolution; two, to compare the use of the term in this corpus with its use in lists of collocates in the macro corpora KSUCCA and arTenTen of Classical and Modern Standard Arabic; and three, to show that linguistically systematizing self-expression is adequate for the identification of highly subjective texts in a corpus. Analysis will show that the notions of the ‘divided self’, sacrificing oneself, and yearning change towards a closer relationship between the subject and the self over time.

马卡里的《纳菲赫-阿提布》中使用 Nafs "灵魂 "进行自我参照以及 "分裂的自我 "的演变
本文将通过北非作家 Shihāb al-Dīn al-Maqqarī(卒于 1632 年)在《Nafḥ al-ṭīb》中收集的安达卢西亚文本语料库,分析名词 nafs "灵魂 "与第一人称属格后缀的用法。目的有三:其一,确定 Nafḥ 中 nafsī 的使用模式、语义表现和异时空演变;其二,将该术语在该语料库中的使用与其在 KSUCCA 和 arTenTen 古典和现代标准阿拉伯语宏观语料库中的同义词列表中的使用进行比较;其三,证明将自我表达系统化的语言学方法足以识别语料库中高度主观的文本。分析将表明,"分裂的自我"、牺牲自我和渴望等概念随着时间的推移朝着主体与自我之间更密切关系的方向变化。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Semitic Studies was established in 1955 and since then has built up a reputation as one of the leading international academic journals in its field. Semitic Studies has always been understood by the editors to include the modern as well as the ancient Near (Middle) East, with special emphasis on research into the languages and literatures of the area. The editors continue to maintain the policy of ensuring that each volume contains items of interest to Orientalists and Biblical Scholars. Extensive reviews of selected books, as well as general review notices, remain a feature of the Journal.
