The contributions to this volume, which come from the Fifth Mingana
Symposium, survey the use of the Bible and attitudes towards it in
the early and classical Islamic periods. The authors explore such
themes as early Christian translations of the Bible into Arabic,
the use of verses from it to defend the truth of Christianity, to
interpret the significance of Islam and to prove its error, Muslim
accusations of corruption of the Bible, and the influences that
affected production of Bibles in Muslims lands. The volume
illustrates the centrality of the Bible to Arab Christians as a
source of authority and information about their experiences under
Islam, and the importance of upholding its authenticity in the face
of Muslim criticisms. Contributors include: Samir Arbache, Mark
Beaumont, Emmanouela Grypeou, Lucy-Anne Hunt, Juan Pedro Monferrer
Sala, Said Gabriel Reynolds, Barbara Roggema, Harald Suermann and
Mark Swanson.
