If you are learning the Uyghur language probably at the advanced levelthen this book will probably be a total bore, as page after page chock-full of linguistic discussions makes it into a difficult read.

  • A Minimalist Analysis of Uyghur Genitives Stephen Politzer-Ahles
    A Minimalist analysis of Uyghur genitives Stephen Politzer-Ahles University of Kansas Abstract This paper investigates the syntactic structure of so-called genitive-possessive DPs in Uyghur, a Turkic language. Uyghur genitive-possessives bear suffixes on both the “possessing” entity (comparable to the Saxon genitive 's in English) and the “possessed” one. The suffix on the “possessor”, -ning, is considered a genitive case marker; the suffix on the “possessed” has multiple allomorphs and is considered an agreement marker that agrees in person and number with the “possessor”. Based on the multiplicity of semantic roles that the “possessing” object may bear, and the observation that it may be dropped from the DP, an analogy is made between genitive-possessive DPs and finite TPs. It is proposed that “possessors” behave in a manner parallel to that of subjects of TPs: they are introduced by a quasi-functional head n or within a gerund, and raise to [Spec,DP] to receive genitive case from D. The agreement suffix, on the other hand, is treated as the phonological realization of an Agr head that is introduced with unvalued phi-features, features which are valued when the “possessing” entity passes through the specifier of AgrP. Adopting this structure can explain data on the realization of definiteness in genitive and non-genitive DPs, and the distribution of adverbials within gerunds. Introduction One of the key components to a theory of noun phrase structure is an explanation of how possessive marking is carried out within the DP. For example, a theory of English DPs owes an explanation of where the 's comes from in phrases like “John’s book”, and how case-checking is done in such a phrase.

Two types of relative clauses are used in modern Uyghur: one in which the subject is in the Nominative and the other in which the subject is in the Genitive and the head noun bears possessive agreement. The article gives a concise account of the main characteris- tics of these and some functionally related constructions. The aim is to pave the way for more research on the issues involved. Éva Á.

E-mail: [email protected] and [email protected] Turkic relative constructions Turkic relative clauses are typically non-finite clauses based on a participle. The dominating type of relative clause is not marked for subject-predicate agreement (Csató 1996 and references given there). See Ex. 1. Ex. 1 Karachay-Balkar Non-marked relative clause konaχ kel-üčü üy guest come-PART room ‘a room where guests stay’ > ‘guestroom’ Some Turkic languages have developed relative constructions in which subject- predicate agreement is marked by a possessive suffix on the participle. In such con- structions the Genitive can be assigned to the subject. See the following examples. Ex. 2 Turkish Genitive relative clause with subject-predicate agreement kız-ıni uyu-duğ-ui oda girl-GEN sleep-DIK.PART room ‘a /the room where the girl sleeps’ Certain languages, for instance Turkmen, have a type of relative construction in which agreement between the Genitive subject of the relative clause and the head noun is marked; see Ex.

The number of native Uyghur speakers is currently estimated to be more than 12 million all over the world (Uyghur language is spoken by more than 11 million people in East Turkistan, the Uyghur homeland. It is also spoken by more than 300,000 people in Kazakhstan, and there are Uyghur-speaking communities in Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, India, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Mongolia, Australia, Germany, the United States of America, Canada and other countries). The Old Uyghur language has a great number of loanwords adopted from different languages at different historical periods. The loanwords come from sources such as ancient Chinese, the ancient Eastern Iranian languages of Saka, Tocharian and Soghdian of the Tarim Basin. Medieval Uyghur, which developed from Old Uyghur and Karakhanid Turkic, is in contrast to Old Uyghur, is a language containing a substantial amount of Arabic and Persian lexical elements. Modern Uyghur was developed on the basis of Chaghatay Turki, which had also been heavily influenced by Arabic and Persian vocabularies.

International Journal of Uyghur Studies, Volume: 1/1 2013, Page: 75-108. A STUDY ON “KASHGAR PRINTS”: “EASTERN TURKI” PRINTED MATERIALS PUBLISHED BY THE SWEDISH MISSION PRESS IN KASHGAR (1892-1938) Eset SÜLAYMAN* ABSTRACT In 1892, the Mission Covenant Church of Sweden (Svenska Missionsförbundet) decided to open a new mission field in Kashgar, Xinjiang. The first Swedish missionaries began their activities there in January of 1892. The mission set up its own printing office in Kashgar in 1912, which, until 1938, was the only printing press in existence there. During the 25 years of its operation, it printed and published thousands of books in the Eastern Turki (Uyghur) language which included religious literature and secular materials. Moreover, it also printed various kinds of textbooks, calendars, tracts and also modern newspapers. Before Soviet Russia had influence in Xinjiang in the 1930s, the cultural and educational activities of the Swedish missionaries, especially the work of their modernized printing press, assumed an important role in the formation of Modern Uyghur. This is considered a tremendous achievement in twentieth century Uyghur cultural history. The printed materials enabled this isolated Eastern Turkic language to form and improve itself to become a modern language. In support of the literary and educational activities in Xinjiang were many Swedish 75 Eastern Turki experts who engaged in linguistic and literary research. Gustaf Raquette (1871- 1945), Gustaf Ahlbert (1884-1943), Sigfrid Moen (1897-?), Oscar Hermansson (1889-1951) and the outstanding Swedish Turcologist, the late Gunnar Jarring, were all very active in the studies of the Eastern Turki (Uyghur) language and culture.

African and African American Studies AAAS 197Y Critiquing Black Muslim Reason CourseID: 213299 Faculty: Next Term Offered: This seminar asks: What does it mean to be Black in the United States? What does it mean to be a Muslim in the United States? What happens when these two identities compound or collide with one another? Well, what about Black Muslim Womanhood, for example? There are scholars who have discussed the "triple constraints" that Black Muslim Women, for example, face as they navigate the American public sphere. As well, while we directly confront questions of citizenship and belonging and without relying too heavily on critical race theory, we will take some time to think about how these sites of identity (and their reception) specifically impact Black Muslims in the United States. The primary purpose of this course?seminar?is to try to disentangle these sites of identity while understanding that for the people who are Black, Muslim, Female, and/or Migrant, there is no way to properly understand how people are subjected to various forms of marginalization, or resist structural racism or sexism, combat Islamophobia, or articulate what it means to either have or gain citizenship, or build communities where their whole selves are affirmed, by thinking that these identities are ever separable. The secondary aim of this course on Black Muslims is to think more deeply about how such a term has historically been applied to African-American Muslims (that is, American-born Muslims of African descent).
