Providing commentary on the controversial revisionist school of
Qur'anic studies, this book explores the origins, scholarship and
development of the Qur'an. The collection of articles, each written
by a distinguished author, treat very familiar passages of the
Qur'an in an original manner, combining thorough philology,
historical anthropology, and cultural history. This book addresses
in a critical fashion the hottest issues in recent works on the
Quran. Among other things, the contributors analyze the
controversial theories of Luxenberg regarding Syriac and the Quran,
and in particular his argument that the term Hur refers not to
virgins but to grapes.
