La Chanson De Slimane Azem, Un Trésor Truffé D’archaïsmes Lexicaux : Cas Des Archaïsmes Lexicaux De Timezrit

Abstract

Each of us has noticed, while listening to their songs, there are a large number of words which
charm our ears but which have now become obsolete and misunderstood by new generations. Our objective is
to study the lexical archaisms concealed in the great artistic repertoire of one of the masters of the Kabyle
song of emigration: Slimane Azem. We will focus in particular on the social conditions that were at the origin
or that favored some of his artistic creations in relation to the archaisms they conceal. We will try to answer
the following questions: what are the lexical archaisms identified such as in the songs of Slimane Azem? What
would be their degrees of archaization (Berkai, 2015)? We will work on a corpus drawn from two main sources:
the books Slimane Azem the poet of Youcef Nacib (2002) and Izlan of Numedie Music and on his recorded
works which are at our disposal (K7, CD), in addition to those which are available on YouTube
