Biography, education, and early careerBorn Daniel Sibboni in Casablanca, Morocco, in 1949, he immigrated to Israel with his parents Makhluf and Allen and his two brothers Shmuel and Michel. They arrived by ship from Marseille and went straight to the "Shikkun Canaan" neighborhood in Safed. His youngest brother (Colonel Dr. Gabi Siboni) was born in Safed. In August 1967, Daniel Sivan joined the Israel Defense Forces and became a coding instructor in the signals corps at Tzrifin. Upon Sivan's discharge from the Israel Defense Forces, he moved to Ramat Gan and studied at the Tel Aviv University. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Bible Studies and Hebrew Language in 1970. Continuing his studies, Sivan gained a Master of Arts degree in Hebrew and Semitic languages. His thesis focused on "Northwest Semitic in Akkadian texts from Ugarit" and was under the guidance of Professor Anson Frank Rainey. Sivan's thesis for his PhD degree, "Grammar of Northwestern Semitic Vocables in Akkadian Texts from the Land of Israel and Syria in the Middle Bronze Age", was written under the guidance of Professor Gideon Goldenberg and Professor Anson Frank Rainey, and it was submitted in 5738 (1978). Awards and honorsDaniel Sivan won several significant awards during his studies including the Mifal HaPayis award, the Nissim Gaon Award, and the Recanati Family Foundation Award. In October 1979 he was appointed a lecturer in the Department of Hebrew Language at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, and in 1997 he became a full professor. In 1986 and 1990, Sivan was a visiting professor at Harvard University and Brandeis University. Between 2000 and 2004, Sivan held the position of Head of the Department of Hebrew Language and functioned as the Vice-Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences during the tenure of Dean Jimmy Weinblatt. From 1998 to 2013, Sivan was the chairman of Ben-Gurion University's publishing house, and during his tenure more than 150 titles were published. From 2006 to 2010, Sivan was a member of the Ben-Gurion University Top Nominations Committee. In 1995, together with Professor Haim Cohen, Sivan received an Honorary Award on behalf of the Israel Science Foundation. Daniel Sivan's contributions to the field of lexicographyCollaborating with Professor Maya Fruchtman, Sivan edited the comprehensive "Ariel" dictionary, and together with Dr. Haim Dihi he co-authored the Ariel Aramic-Hebrew Dictionary. Both these dictionaries were published by Korim Publishing House. ResearchDaniel Sivan Conducted Research Work in the following areas:
Sivan wrote books and articles on these subjects. In his research work he focused mainly on the contribution of the languages to the understanding of biblical Hebrew. Among other things, he demonstrated how wrong it is to claim that Ugaritic was a Canaanite language. He demonstrated that Ugaritic had its own characteristic linguistic features, and accordingly it should be regarded as an independent language among the northwestern Semitic languages. It is a mistake to refer to its literature as "Canaanite literature," as some scholars such as Cassuto, Lionstam, and Avishur, have done. Sivan studied the work of the grammarian Rabbi Yehuda Hayyuj. Sivan has written articles on some of the linguistic concepts in this work, and in 2012, together with Dr. Ali Wattad, he published an annotated, critical edition called "The Three Grammar Essays of Rabbi Yehuda Hayyuj in their Arabic Origin and their Translation to Modern Hebrew," published by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev publishing house. Personal lifeSivan is known for his fondness of jazz and blues music. His knowledge of these types of music is vast. From 2009 to 2011, Sivan broadcast a weekly jazz program on Radio Darom. Sivan was a member of the band "Koah Meshikha" (Gravity) in which he played the guitar and sang blues and jazz songs with his brother, Dr. Gabi Siboni. The band performed at clubs across the country. After many years, Sivan quit the band, which changed its name to Jukebox. Daniel Sivan is married (for the second time). He has three children with his first wife. His eldest son, Gal (aka James), was the drummer of the Shabbak Samekh band for years. Notable publications (Hebrew)
