  • Islam and Its Past
    OUP CORRECTED PROOF – FINAL, 15/5/2017, SPi OXFORD STUDIES IN THE ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS General Editors Adam J. Silverstein Guy G. Stroumsa OUP CORRECTED PROOF – FINAL, 15/5/2017, SPi OXFORD STUDIES IN THE ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS This series consists of scholarly monographs and other volumes at the cutting edge of the study of Abrahamic Religions. The increase in intellectual interest in the comparative approach to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam reflects the striking surge in the importance of religious traditions and patterns of thought and behaviour in the twenty-first century, at the global level. While this importance is easy to detect, it remains to be identified clearly and analysed from a comparative perspective. Our existing scholarly apparatus is not always adequate in attempting to understand precisely the nature of similarities and differences between the monotheistic religions, and the transformations of their ‘family resemblances’ in different cultural and historical contexts. The works in the series are devoted to the study of how ‘Abrahamic’ traditions mix, blend, disintegrate, rebuild, clash, and impact upon one another, usually in polemical contexts, but also, often, in odd, yet persistent ways of interaction, reflecting the symbiosis between them. TITLES IN THE SERIES INCLUDE: The Making of the Abrahamic Religions in Late Antiquity Guy G. Stroumsa Judaism, Sufism, and the Pietists of Medieval Egypt A Study of Abraham Maimonides and His Times Elisha Russ-Fishbane Purity, Community, and Ritual in Early Christian Literature Moshe Blidstein OUP CORRECTED PROOF – FINAL, 15/5/2017, SPi Islam and Its Past Jahiliyya, Late Antiquity, and the Qurʾan Edited by CAROL BAKHOS AND MICHAEL COOK 1 OUP CORRECTED PROOF – FINAL, 15/5/2017, SPi 3 Great Clarendon Street, Oxford, OX2 6DP, United Kingdom Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford.

  • The Qur'an in Its Historical Context
    THE QUR’AN IN ITS HISTORICAL CONTEXT The Qur’an in Its Historical Context is a remarkable work of primary source scholarship on the Qur’an. While most studies address the Qur’an through the retrospective lens of later Islamic commentaries, the present work presents a contextual perspective. The reader is challenged herein to consider, first, the great debates over the meaning of the Qur’an and, second, the new research that claims to present a definitive solution to those debates. In Part 1, the authors consider, and advance, theories for a new understanding of the Qur’an’s interpretation. The question of Christoph Luxenberg’s Syro-Aramaic reading is debated, as is the importance of newly discovered early Arabic inscriptions. In Part 2, the authors place the Qur’an within the Late Antique religious milieu, demonstrating its conversation with Jewish and Christian literature. In Part 3, the authors consider the Islamic tradition of Qur’an interpretation, and ask how scientific research relates to religious tradition. Collectively the essays herein present a new approach to the study of the Qur’an. This approach will allow scholars to shed new light on the Qur’anic passages that have been shrouded in mystery and debate. It will also illuminate the Qur’an’s relationship to Judaism and Christianity, thereby demonstrating the Qur’an’s place in a shared Jewish–Christian–Islamic tradition. As this collection of distinguished authors represents a distinct sub-field within Qur’anic Studies, students and specialists will welcome this volume in order to get to know the state-of-the-art methods within this specific sphere of scholarship.

  • Fra Mauro Transcriptions Xcel
    Transscriptions of Notes & legends on Fra Mauro's Map of 1459 ID# Transcription Geographic Area Notes Reference Location The Maldives and, perhaps, Malé, the main city of the islands. Mentioned by Ibn Battuta, who writes "al Mahal (nom 1 Mahal Indian Ocean générique de toutes les îles)"; (Voyageurs arabes, p. 921), and again: "Ten days after embarking at Calecut we (03, n 25) arrived at the Islands called Dhibat-al-Mahal..." (Hobson-Jobson, p. 546). See 4. The inscription comes at the southernmost strip of Africa, opposite the indication of the Auster. It refers to the unknown expanse of the open ocean; cfr. Seneca, Suasoriarum liber, 1.1: "ovae ac terribilis figurae, magna etiam Oceano portenta, quae profunda ista vastitas nutrit; confusa lux alta caligine et interceptus tenebris dies; ipsum vero grave et defixum mare et aut nulla aut ignota sidera" (SENECA, Sententiae, p. 331); see also ADAMUS BREMENSIS, p. 497, where he speaks of "illam tenebrosam rigentis occeani caliginem, quae vix oculis penetrari valeret". The Arab term for the Atlantic Ocean was the "Sea of Obscurity" or the "Tenebrous Ocean" (Az-Zulmah); 2 Here begins the dark sea Indian Ocean see, for example, IDRISI, 4.1: "Personne ne sait ce qui existe au-delà de l'océan Ténébreux, ni n'a pu rien en (03, n 40) apprendre de certain, à cause des difficultés qu'opposent à la navigation la profondeur des ténèbres, la hauteur des vagues, la fréquence des tempêtes, la multiplicité des animaux et la violence des vents. Il y a cependant dans cet océan un grand nombre d'îles, soit habitées, soit désertes; mais aucun navigateur ne cherche à la traverser ni à y aller vers la haute mer; on y fait du cabotage, sans s'éloigner de la côte.
