The Qura (TM)an is an orally composed poetical text which
Muslimshave always known mainly in the form of oral recitation.
Western scholarship however has hardly ever read it as literature,
on account of the inaccessibility of its structure,and insteadhas
used it mainly to mine theological or legislative statements.
Angelika Neuwirth brings order to this supposed chaos by
demonstrating meaningful compositional structures for the Makkan
suras of the Qura (TM)an. This 2nd edition has been extended to
include a new study which examines the suras as pointing to a
historical development in the preaching of the Qura (TM)an and the
formation of a community.
