Points of Contact: The Shared Intellectual History of Vocalisation in Syriac, Arabic, and Hebrew

What it is about

A book on how Syriac, Arabic and Hebrew scholars of the fifth to eleventh centuries thought about vowels while they invented vowel pointing. Chapter 2 surveys three ways they separated vowels from consonants: "sounding" letters (a calque of the Greek phōnēenta, used by Jacob of Edessa for Syriac and later by the Masoretes as Arabic muṣawwitāt for the seven Tiberian vowels), "movements" (Arabic ḥaraka vs sākin, which Hebrew writers applied to mobile and quiescent shewa), and the double nature of the matres lectionis, which can be vowels or consonants. Chapter 3 traces "relative" vocalisation, where a dot marks a vowel as higher or lower than another (the early Syriac dots and the earliest Masoretic phonology), and chapter 4 the move to "absolute" names for each vowel in the three traditions between the ninth and eleventh centuries. The conclusion argues that the three systems grew through exchange between Christian, Muslim and Jewish scholars, not in isolation; a glossary of vocalisation terms closes the book. The card is written from the contents, the conclusion (ch. 5) and the glossary's scope.
