Description

In this book, renowned Islamic scholar Angelika Neuwirth presents key features of her course on “The Koran as a Text of Late Antiquity.” The work transcends polarizing analyses and well-intentioned but superficial attempts to show commonalities, presenting instead the unique elements of the Koran while showing how it emerges from a common cultural space. Her analysis is an exemplary combination of philological precision and cultural sensitivity.
