Avicenna's treatise, known in Arabic as \"Asbab huduth al-huruf\" (Causes of the Generation of Letters), represents one of the most sophisticated medieval Islamic inquiries into articulatory phonetics, speech anatomy, and the acoustics of language. This 1966 Tbilisi edition is a landmark in Soviet Orientalism, offering the original Arabic text alongside a rigorous Russian translation and extensive scholarly analysis. It examines Avicenna's classification of consonants and vowels, comparing his methods with both earlier Arabic grammarians (such as Sibawayh) and modern phonetic science. Published by the Georgian Academy of Sciences with a strictly limited print run of only 1,000 copies, this monograph is exceptionally difficult to find outside major institutional libraries. It remains an essential resource for historians of linguistics, Arabic philologists, and scholars of medieval Islamic philosophy and science.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44523809964074,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_5625.jpg?v=1782851917","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/akhvlediani-vladimir-avicennas-phonetic-treatise-foneticheskiy-traktat-avitsenny-1966-in-russian-and-arabic","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
