Our aim in founding the Zeitschrift für Arabische Linguistik was to establish a journal devoted exclusively to work in the field of Arabic linguistics, which hitherto has been published in a variety of journals of Oriental studies or linguistics; there was no publication reserved for Arabic linguistics. The Zeitschrift für Arabische Linguistik sets out to satisfy this need and to be a forum in which the results of research can be brought to the attention of scholars and discussed, new data made available without delay and new scholarly works reviewed. We hope in this way to improve the exchange of information within the field of Arabic linguistics and to contribute towards promoting progress in the discipline, both with regard to data and methods. In addition we would hope to make the discipline more widely known to workers in neighbouring fields and to the interested lay public.
The "moving wall" represents the time period between the last issue
available in JSTOR and the most recently published issue of a journal.
Moving walls are generally represented in years. In rare instances, a
publisher has elected to have a "zero" moving wall, so their current
issues are available in JSTOR shortly after publication.
Note: In calculating the moving wall, the current year is not counted.
For example, if the current year is 2008 and a journal has a 5 year
moving wall, articles from the year 2002 are available.
Terms Related to the Moving Wall
Fixed walls: Journals with no new volumes being added to the archive.
Absorbed: Journals that are combined with another title.
Complete: Journals that are no longer published or that have been
combined with another title.
