Contributions Toward a History of Arabico-Gothic Culture / / Leo Wiener.
Wiener argues that Germanic languages have arisen by a sudden influx of Low Latin and Arabic. He demonstrates that they developed from the Graeco-Latin glossaries through Gothic interpretations, which owe their origin to the Graeco-Arabic learning in Spain.
