文字的发展规律是文化发展规律的组成部分,从文字的构造来看,世界上的文字可分为象形文字和字母文字两大体系,而中东地区是这两大文字体系共同的发源地。字母的创造与古代地中海的商业文化有重大关系,腓尼基人因贸易的需要而发明了字母;字母的发展和成熟又与宗教有着密切的关系,伊斯兰教的产生造就了华美的阿拉伯字母,伊斯兰教的传播把阿拉伯文字带到了欧、亚、非三大洲。笔者试图从历史语言学的角度分析阿拉伯文字与阿拉伯伊斯兰文化的关系。
The law of the development of characters is part of the law of cultural development. From the point of view of the structure of words, the words in the world can be divided into two major systems: hieroglyphic characters and alphabetic characters. The Middle East region is the common origin of these two major writing systems. The creation of letters has a major relationship with the ancient Mediterranean business culture. The Phoenicians invented letters because of the needs of trade. The development and maturation of letters has a close relationship with religion. The emergence of Islam has created the gorgeous Arabic alphabet. The spread of Islam brought Arabic script to three continents: Europe, Asia, and Africa. The author attempts to analyze the relationship between Arabic script and Arabic Islamic culture from the perspective of historical linguistics.
