DESCRIPTION:In this lecture I will focus on the distribution of variat
 ion in the Arabic papyri to help understand the nature of the differen
 ces between Arabic’s earliest written form and the Classical Arabic 
 standard\, which developed centuries later. The results will eventuall
 y bring into focus the landscape of written Arabic in the Islamic worl
 d before the canonization of Classical Arabic and pave the way towards
  understanding the evolution of Arabic as a written language.
