Afaf Mougou is a Tunisian Social Entrepreneur and university professor specialized in cognitive linguistics applied to Holy Books. She is a former postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University in the United States of America.
Biography
editAfaf Mougou was born in 1976 in the coastal city of Sousse, where she received her primary and secondary education. Being the Laureate of Tunisia in the Baccalaureate Degree, she was awarded and honored by President Ben Ali in 1994. She then studied at the University of Letter and Human Science of Sousse. Mougou’s PhD in Arabic language and literature defended in 2010 deals with the subject of “Conceptual Structure in Qur’an”. In 2018, she earned a fellowship at Harvard University where she taught linguistics and could conduct research from a biblical frame of reference.
Afaf Mougou is now working in digitizing the religions and in social media as the creator of the Digital Religion Company and the neuraligion institute that is operating through her successful educational YouTube Channel neuraligion.
Academic Work
editAfaf Mougou has several academic works published in Arabic and in English dealing with themes related to the conceptual structure in Qur’an, the concept of Jihad in Qur’an, the construal of space in Arabic language, connotation in Arabic Poetry and a comparative linguistic study between Arabic and Hebrew. In 2023, she published her first novel The Miracle[1] that is a love story between Amal Ben Mrad; a Tunisian girl from Othman Origin; Bchira Ben Mrad’s niece, and Uri; a Jewish man, from a refugee family who escaped anti-Semitic violence and fled Russia to the US through Germany.
Her research is adopting a cognitive perspective which is based on the assumption that “language faculty” is a reflection or a “specialization”, of general-purpose cognitive abilities, and is governed by general neural processes.
In this theoretical framework, the main purpose of her books is to reconsider the communicative aspect of Holy Books with respect to the meaning extension patterns recognized by cognitive linguistics.
In her book What is Jihad?[2] Toward a theory of Jihad in Political Discourse, Afaf Mougou suggests a new reading of Holy Books, the Qur’an and the Bible, which can be united in one book that she calls the “Qur’Bible” Text, and this union is based on the common conceptual structure that she has discovered in both texts the Qur’an and the Bible.
