“Breaking the Horizon of Expectation in the Poetry of Abū Tammām between al-Āmidī and al-Maʿarrī: Their Metaphors as a Model.”

Abstract

The Arabic language is one of the oldest and most prestigious languages in Africa. Its close connection with Islam has meant that wherever Islam spread, the Arabic language spread along with it. The relationship between the Republic of Chad and the Arabic language is linked to its geographical location at the heart of the African continent. Due to this strategic position, Chad served as a crossroads for trade caravan routes connecting the eastern and western parts of Africa. As a result, it witnessed wide waves of migration, particularly Arab migrations coming from the Nile Valley in the east and the Maghreb in the north, carrying with them Islam and the Arabic language.

This study, entitled “The Impact of the Spread of the Arabic Language among Non-Native Speakers in Africa: Between the Challenges of Reality and Future Prospects – Chad as a Model,” has been structured into several sections, including a conclusion, research findings, recommendations, and a list of sources and references
