Nota di contenuto

Preliminary Material -- 1. Introduction -- 2. Aspects of Previous Research -- 3. Neo-Mandaic and Pre-Modern Aramaic -- 4. Neo-Mandaic and Other Neo-Aramaic Varieties: Isolexes -- 5. The Uniqueness of the Neo-Mandaic Lexicon within Neo-Aramaic -- Bibliographical References -- Index of Neo-Mandaic Words.

Sommario/riassunto

Neo-Mandaic is the last phase of a pre-modern vernacular closely related to Classical Mandaic, a Mesopotamian Aramaic idiom of Late Antiquity. This unique language is critically endangered, being spoken by a few hundred adherents of Mandaeism, the only gnostic religion to have survived until the present day. All other Mandaeans, numbering several tens of thousands, are Arabic or Persian speakers. The present study concerns the least known aspect of the language, namely its lexicon as reflected in both its dialects, those of the cities of Ahvaz and Khorramshahr in the Iranian province of Khuzestan. Apart from lexicological and etymological studies in Neo-Mandaic itself, the book discusses the contribution of the Neo-Mandaic lexis to our knowledge of literary Mandaic as well as aspects of this lexis within the framework of Neo-Aramaic as a whole.

Sommario/riassunto

This book is a comprehensive overview, covering fundamentals, applications, and development of nuclear technology as well as the history, principles, policy, and practice of nuclear safety. It begins with the background and significance of the subject and conducts in-depth discussion into these sub-topics through ten chapters. The dissemination of nuclear knowledge and the assurance of nuclear safety rely on highly qualified personnel in nuclear facilities and well-designed education. This book is useful for a broad audience, including



practitioners in nuclear-related industries such as nuclear construction, agriculture, and medicine, as well as researchers, engineers, and operators familiar with nuclear technology. Additionally, it can serve as a textbook for college students and professionals, a reference for operational and managerial staff at nuclear facilities, and a resource for engineers and technicians in other related fields.
