New Perspectives on the Qur'an
This book continues the work of The QuraAn in its Historical Context, in which an international group of scholars address an expanded range of topics on the QuraAn and its origins, looking beyond medieval Islamic traditions to present the QuraAnas own conversation with the religions and literatures of its day. Particular attention is paid to recent debates and controversies in the field, and to uncovering the QuraAnas relationship with Judaism and Christianity. After a foreword by Abdolkarim Soroush, chapters by renowned experts cover: method in Qur'Anic Studies analysis of material evidence, including inscriptions and ancient manuscripts, for what they show of the Qur'Anas origins the language of the Qur'An and proposed ways to emend our reading of the Qur'An how our knowledge of the religious groups at the time of the Qur'Anas emergence might contribute to a better understanding of the text the Qur'Anas conversation with Biblical literature and traditions that challenge the standard understanding of the holy book. This debate of recent controversial proposals for new interpretations of the Qur'An will shed new light on the Quraanic passages that have been shrouded in mystery and debate. As such, it will be a valuable reference for scholars of Islam, the Quraan, Christian-Muslim relations and the Middle East.8 Review of E. Badawi, M. Abdel Haleem, Arabic-English Dictionary ...
