This classic and popular introduction to the sciences developed to interpret and understand Islam's holy book is ideal for all serious students of the Koran. Precise, yet comprehensive, it covers the traditional disciplines, including the meaning and contexts of revelation, the history and transmission of the text, and exegesis, as well as more contemporary topics like the recording of the Koran, the history of Orientalist approaches, and a survey of translations. It ends with a guide for the correct recitation of, and etiquette toward, the Koran.Chapter 1: The Qur'an and RevelationChapter 2: Transmission of the Qur'anic RevelationChapter 3: The Qur'an in Manuscript and PrintChapter 4: Form, Language and StyleChapter 5: Understanding the TextChapter 6: Interpreting the TextChapter 7: Some Related IssuesChapter 8: Reading and Studying the Qur'anAhmad Von Denffer was born in Germany in 1949.
