Slavic Karuna 138: Water (водa).1 1 Alphabets, Elements and Creation: On the Ideograms of Patricia Claro The work of Patricia Claro is multimedia in a different sense of cross-media. It entails photographs, which become coloured oil paintings, the abstract patterns of which become black/white engravings on paper resembling ideograms. Some of these media are presented in video montages. The sensuous and deeply beautiful colours are themselves a paean to the richness of nature augmented by an artistic eye. There is an instinctive fascination with the “ideograms”: that the seemingly random could produce regular and potentially systematic markings. To a historian of alphabets, they are all the more fascinating because they suggest that the usual sharp distinction between ideographic sign systems (Chinese, cf. Egyptian hieroglyphs) and Western alphabets may have deeper common roots. Scholars have, for instance, noted links between early Chinese signs (e.g. Banpo near Xian, Ban Shan, Machala Yan, Ma Jian),2 Old Russian syllabaries,3 Vinca Culture in Southeastern Europe (Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria…)4 and even the Navajo culture in the Southwestern United States.5 In an early period, Chinese logograms and Sumerian pictographs were also closely related.6 The Chinese Yin -Yang symbol recurs as a symbol of Ra in Egypt.7 Officially there are 214 Chinese radicals and 412 (a mirror of 214)8 Chinese syllables which combine to produce c. 100,000 ideograms. Simplified versions have 37 syllables.

  • Lessons One to Ten from Ummah
    LESSON ONE: The Alphabet Here are a few points to remember about the Arabic Alphabet: Arabic is written from right to left There are 29 characters of the Arabic alphabet It is extremely important to include all dots and the number and placement of dots can change the sound of the letter and therefore the meaning of word. In English we may forget to dot the I or cross the T but we can not do this in Arabic. Sun letters and Moon Letters The letters of the Arabic alphabet are divided into two groups - Sun and Moon letters. This is important when the word begins with "Al" (the use of "al" will be explained in a later lesson insha Allah). When "Al" is followed by one of the sun letters, the L sound (lam) becomes silent and the following sun letter is pronounced in its place. The sun letters are خ ز د ذ ز ش ض غ ؾ ق ط ظ ل ٌ All other letters are Moon letters and the lam is pronounced normally. After a while you will naturally be able to distinguish a sun letter from a moon letter, simply by whether it sounds wrong or right but if you have not reached that stage, it may be useful to learn which letters are sun letters and which letters are not. The two groups of letters have been named in this way because the word for Sun in Arabic is Shams which begins with a sun letter, and Moon is Qamar beginning with a moon letter.

These dots are an integral part of a letter, since they distinguish between letters that represent different sounds.

  • A Comparative Analysis of Arabic Text Steganography
    applied sciences Review A Comparative Analysis of Arabic Text Steganography Reema Thabit 1,* , Nur Izura Udzir 1,* , Sharifah Md Yasin 1 , Aziah Asmawi 1 , Nuur Alifah Roslan 1 and Roshidi Din 2 1 Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology, Universiti Putra Malaysia, UPM, Serdang 43400, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia; [email protected] (S.M.Y.); [email protected] (A.A.); [email protected] (N.A.R.) 2 School of Computing, College of Arts and Sciences, Universiti Utara Malaysia, Sintok 06010, Kedah, Malaysia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (R.T.); [email protected] (N.I.U.) Abstract: Protecting sensitive information transmitted via public channels is a significant issue faced by governments, militaries, organizations, and individuals. Steganography protects the secret information by concealing it in a transferred object such as video, audio, image, text, network, or DNA. As text uses low bandwidth, it is commonly used by Internet users in their daily activities, resulting a vast amount of text messages sent daily as social media posts and documents. Accordingly, text is the ideal object to be used in steganography, since hiding a secret message in a text makes it difficult for the attacker to detect the hidden message among the massive text content on the Internet. Language’s characteristics are utilized in text steganography. Despite the richness of the Arabic language in linguistic characteristics, only a few studies have been conducted in Arabic text steganography. To draw further attention to Arabic text steganography prospects, this paper reviews the classifications of these methods from its inception.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: MYTH and THE
    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: MYTH AND THE MATERNAL VOICE MEDIATION IN THE POETRY OF VENUS KHOURY-GHATA Margaret A. Braswell, Doctor of Philosophy, 2009 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Joseph Brami Department of French and Italian Born under the French Mandate in Lebanon, Paris-based Francophone poet and novelist Vénus Khoury-Ghata represents a generation of Lebanese writers who have witnessed Lebanon's evolution from a newly independent state to a twenty-first century nation struggling to survive the devastation of civil war and regional conflict. Like many of her compatriots who have chosen exile and whose mother tongue is Arabic, Khoury- Ghata's negotiation between two languages and cultures nurtures an oeuvre that reflects the tensions and provocations of a dual Franco-Lebanese identity. An examination of her poetry represents an opportunity to direct more attention to a poet whose passionate representation of her native country and the pathos of the human figure memorializes in verse personal and collective tragedy. Khoury-Ghata's narrative-driven poems reveal the dynamics of accommodating differences by promoting encounter and integration, while recognizing that confrontation is not entirely unavoidable. Seeking to reconcile the distance and the passage of time that separate the poet from her origins, as well as linguistic and cultural differences that divide self and society, her approach evokes the contemporary poet’s quest for a rapprochement , however ephemeral, with the Other, often in the context of an autobiographical project that merges History and myth. Her consistent evocation in writing and interviews of her dual identity invites an examination of her verse in the framework of theoretical notions based on binary structures.
