المستخلص

في العصور ما قبل الحديثة عاش ما يقرب من تسعون بالمائة من اليهود تحت الحکم الإسلامي، فاستخدموا اللغة العربية في تلک الفترة ليس فقط في التواصل الشفوي والمکتوب، بل إنهم دمجوا مفاهيم وتقنيات من هذه البيئة الفکرية، التي عاشوا فيها مما جعل هذه العصور الأکثر تميزاً من حيث النشاط الأدبي في کل التاريخ اليهودي. وعلى الرغم من أهمية هذه الحقبة التاريخية فإن الأدب المکتوب بالعربية اليهودية لم ينل حتى زمن قريب القدر الکافي من الفحص العلمي. وهذا يرجع إلى تعذُّر الوصول إلى المصادر بالإضافة إلى تباين التقاليد العلمية والموقف السياسي. هذه الورقة البحثية تساهم في استکشاف التجذُّر الفکري والثقافي بالإضافة إلى السمات المميزة للأدب العربي المکتوب بواسطة اليهود.
In pre-modern times, an estimated ninety per cent of the Jewish population lived under Muslim hegemony. Over the centuries, these Jews not only adopted the Arabic language for most forms of spoken and written communication, but also integrated concepts and techniques from their intellectual environment, resulting in one of the most extraordinary periods of literary creativity in all of Jewish history. Despite its importance, however, Judaeo-Arabic literature has been under-researched until very recently, due to inaccessible sources, disparate scholarly traditions and political antagonism. This contribution explores the cultural and intellectual embeddedness, as well as the characteristic traits, Arabic literature written by Jews.
