Qur?anic Studies : Between History, Theology and Exegesis Hardback
Edited by Mehdi Azaiez, Mokdad Arfa-Mensia
Part of the IQSA Studies in the Qur?an series
Hardback
Description
Over the last twenty years, the rise of Qur'anic studies has been one of the most remarkable developments within the wider framework of Islamic scholarship.
This evolution can be viewed from three angles: exponential growth in the accessibility of relevant primary; the use of contemporary methods for developing new analytical agendas; a renewed appreciation of diverse hermeneutical orientations.
A veritable gold-rush of publications, theses, colloquia and study projects devoted to the Qur'an in the past two decades illustrates these developments.
This scholarly community subsists primarily in European countries and the United States, but its effects are not limited there.
The reception and dissemination of this work in Muslim-majority countries is constant and bodes as a promising opportunity to establish a real dialogue between scholars and lived community.
The present book contains expert contributions emerging from this nexus, with scholars from North African, Middle Eastern and Western backgrounds who share a common ambition: to advance academic study of the Qur?an by promoting cooperation across global boundaries.
