[Music]
so hello to all of you before
I would like to thank the students
polytechnic to have to have me
invited today to evoke a
essential subject which is the story of
our country and more particularly
that of our heritage
then Algeria is precisely this vast
territory that has sometimes been coveted
often cornered or too long
occupied our land was first numid
then Roman Phoenician
Ottoman Arab and more recently
French before being
Algerian our culture is so the
fruit from the major brewing
different civilizations that have
successor and our faces keep a
testimony in dice the bills of their
passage black white skin to the mathes
old skips or buckles
blondes mark this diversity of
genres and form a set of
communities with reflections jen algeria
plural but that we desire
today one and indivisible
Algeria has a history
millennium and it turns out
today in a new light
so we deliver the secrets of a
rich heritage of its multiples
influences allowing us undoubtedly the
building our identity is
certainly that of our future
Algeria is a territory that we
qualifies as open-air museum in
witness the ancient Roman city
the mausoleums numide the remains of
Phoenician counter the casbahs and
Arab citadel wear them is not
ottomans or the habitat
of Haussmannian architecture if
some of these sites are ranked
others unfortunately are in jeopardy
the disappearance is even assured for
unrated websites
preservation and restoration our
heritage is a condition
sinequanone to safeguard our
identity without conscience and
knowledge of the past
can we really envision a future
the building and the building advocates
haunted direct from a past sometimes sweet
the happy sometimes glorious but who has not
at least belongs to us and without which
we can not go forward to restore the
memory also goes through the
preservation of what was and is not
more ie
the transmission of an art of living to
the old and the sharing of what we
today names tradition and
customs they are an integral part
of a society and reveals
the set of value of elements
material and immaterial translates and
to share in a written or oral way is
transmitted from generation to
generation
their existence or their
manifestation in spontaneous time
and must be repeated must adapt its
vision to that of the old for doors
to understand their time
restore memory remains so the
the safest way to understand the meaning
the wealth and interest of the
conservation of our heritage for
understand the different aspects that
make up our multiple identity
we can not ignore
various origins that influenced on
our first communication tool on
language so our population is
mostly Arabic-speaking and if the
Tamazight language used under its
different forms was recognized by the
constitution of 96 speak it by the
Algerians differ from one region to
another
and if he is affiliated with an Arabic idiom
it remains very different from Arabic
literal the Algerian whose base is
so recognized Berber was enriched by
the languages of the groups that influenced
this region in the course of history
among them we will obviously mention the
Turkish Ottoman Arabic Andalusian Spanish
and more recently French in his
current form this Algerian Arabic
therefore reflects the different stages
he has lived in his history
and the adaptability ability of
that language
for example, one of the
words of used current that went through
many centuries and that corresponds
today in the name of our currency the
dinar
it’s a word that comes from
Arabic denomination is derived
directly from the Latin of marius it is necessary
to borrow is originally designated a
Roman coin or a
another example of common words
happy there that denotes a container
with orifice 3 and so it would be
from the term
Roman goulard who pointed
the narrow orifice or so the
gullet so by the way and so
less surprising
among the words we use there are
in whose Turkish etymology does
no doubt
with as an example the cake at
with so we have another example
which is an onomatopoeia the word youtube
who gave the name to our seagulls
so always bad to actually it’s
just the cuicui it’s a
Turkish onomatopoeia which at the base
means the bird in a language
childish there also those who
come from a mixture of Arabs and
Turkish as for example the word and luigi
legault or the root is arabic and law and
the suffix ji is ottoman we use
still today other words
of Persian origin as for example the
word choucha whose denomination
complete and shu at role actually made me
it means a hat diet is not so
extravagant than that when we know that
for oriental hair thick
is synonymous with grace and beauty
or when it is known that diets
dates is composed of several hamlets
we can understand the affiliation to
the hair
it is difficult for us to
some words to know if they were
introduced in Algeria directly by
the turkish or by travelers and
pilgrims one simply knows how
certain that a number of objects
of Persian origin such as carpet
carpets the copper utensils etc. have
been carried away from the east by the
pilgrims
another notable influence left
his footsteps in our language the words
of Arabic origin to Spanish there is
those who were directly
borrowed from Italian as by
example homosexual women but llull so
known as francised form of mariole
he is fired he makes his first
appearance in italy in the form
mariolo who originally designated
crooks or crafty it would have been
borrowed by the Spaniards and transmitted
to Algerians from the west and it is
in use
then the sixteenth century and made the
beautiful days of rai song
today so other Spanish word
of Italian origin were introduced
by the Turkish door as for example
banks they do not actually cause the
canopy bed comes from Italian
of the Italian balde caused the form
tuscany of Baghdad city
because she to see the others
cloth and evening regions
today a French influence is
noticeable because it is the most
recent but it’s also true in
the other meaning and if certain words
French are of Arab origin because
differences and whose ancestral
others have been directly imprinted
our Algerian or Berber languages
so the movie is used for the
first time in the 14th century and pulls
its origin of the word of beautiful fellows 30
sion in Berber of twin gates
corresponding to the village because the
common formerly provide great
quantities of pine that replaced the
follows in candlelight the language
Algerian is therefore in the image of his
history and remains the reflection of his
course marked by an important
cultural mixing the linguistic fact
Algerian is often put forward by
those who call for renewal
identity
these claim the specificity of
the Algerian language m puts forward its
necessary preservation and its
claim as the language
legitimate national
the main argument advanced for
justify the necessary preservation
being taking into account the heritage
cultural composition of poems
stories and songs depending on
that language
the plurality of the language and its
wealth brings us to evoke
the importance of orality in
learning transmission and
preservation of traditions
Algerian
because the identity of a people can not
to be summed up in the knowledge of
its event history the
representation of founding myths
tales and legends traditions and
popular belief propels us to
round ass in the very heart of the mode of
functioning of a community
recognized since ancient times as
mistress of homes because of the
position and the place it occupies
as much within the ace
family ellul women are
recognized guarantor and custodian of a
secular knowledge and remains so
undeniable a major pillar of the
oral transmission and therefore
learning and preservation of
august its customs as an example
we can evoke the practices of
the Kabyle population who has long
bathed in a world inhabited by
magical religious belief among the
most popular magic rituals on
count those who are used
to take his destiny into his own hands
this is called positive magic because
they intervene most often in case
of a fortune or destiny that is made
expect
it should be noted that the communities
where the family structure plays a role
preponderant in the smooth running of
the society
the three things considered as
essential and that paces life after
birth are the transition to age
adult
marriage and procreation if any
of them lacks the reputation of
the family without life tarnished and the
social relations so economic
altered so much to say in a proven way
that the place of tradition and
transmission plays a major role here
in the smooth running of society
in a completely different way we have
the boca game there that is causing
a divination practice become a game
accompanied by short poems resist
or improvised to be at the end
interpreted as omens the
nagging game there was very fashionable
in the old cities of Algeria and its
surroundings and practice is attested
as early as the fifteenth century this game were
also practiced by women
and today she’s jar at is
considered a heritage that we
must preserve if his practice falls
indeed in disuse
some Algerian writers start
now at the collection of the
retranscription of countless bora
let some of which are very
revealing in the art of
improvisation and versification
of our ancestors the role of the stories of
tales and legends is no longer at
demonstrate and in some areas
Bedouin influence the Russian reef
long diffused by the taste she
literally the one who says his role
is to recount the hero’s prowess
arabo muslim in places to
wide spread the public places the
places of worship pardon the
weekly markets etc
the tradition of taste it was a long time
anchored in a social reality and
politics because and they embody it
the spirit that watches over cohesion
tribal but the stories we
other city-dwellers keeping in mind are
obviously those who were
reported by our mothers and grown- ups
mothers before her we remember
the story or rather the legend the
more known that called fatema hal
macra or fatima the fard and so that’s
an old legend of Algiers she is
carrying a message and a moral and
the influence of this story was such that
if you still walk around
in the alleys of the casbah
you can ask your way and
you can still visit this
House
finally the Algerian traditions still
present today his time observe
through the ceremonies that
punctuate our lives to know the
births marriages and others
circumcision for example the ritual of
baths and wine and beauty
of the bride forms a very custom
feminine that one is obliged to follow
in detail originally each
gesture all practices related to this
event is indicative of a
belief
so the agreed day of bathing a whole
procession of women on foot follow the
betrothed to play steam room
fully booked by the family
for the occasion the ceremony as well as
the necessary robin objects such as
the famous copper pass the mayor
benoit decline or the fota do
an integral part of our heritage
immaterial
some time ago he existed
even a purely feminine profession
whose representative was responsible
to ensure the smooth running of
ritual and traditional practices during
of these ceremonies it is well
obviously I’m buying
extremely appreciated for his role
beautician and her influence by
his knowledge of the habits and customs his
wise advice
we made you very, very often
call her for for the ceremonies
classic wedding so but is this
that we can say today that
women despite a renewed interest and
gray the fact that we can call back
to the machta or to make reference
to other habits and customs that are
fallen into disuse
can we say today that
the place as soon as women are
always depository and 40 of this knowledge
knowing that with modern life
they are an integral part of
civil society and can no longer
assume that role appearance to the share
whole then today that to
the school to assume this role but not
only
and obviously it’s up to the young nation
to avail of this fight because the
quest for identity is our fight
so we must we will have to continue
to the end because to do without it can
not have a future
thank you for your team
