Abstract EN
The current study aims to shed light on the importance of acculturation in creating a peace and coexistence in the globalized world especially within the actual political as well as social conditions.
The researchers shed light on the role of translation in bridging the gap between the two banks, eastern and western areas, each representing a given culture, language, a nation thought, or a civilization.
The Arab civilization would not be founded unless they realized the importance of transporting the Greek, Latin, and Indian heritage to Arabic.
Thus, they spent a good deal of time and effort to do so.
The study shows the need for acknowledging the impact of “Beit el hikma” that was established by the Abbasid caliph “El Maamoun” and Toledo school of translators founded in the twelfth century during the reign of Alfonso VII that were historical witnesses of the importance of translation as a process that strengthens harmony and coexistence between Arabs and Occidentals.
Keywords: translation; acculturation; coexistence; Arabs; Occidentals.
