Note(s) : Notes bibliogr. et bibliogr. en fin de chapitres. Index. - Marianna Klaris currently Post-Doctoral Researcher at Oxford University, Senior
Research Associate at Pembroke College, Oxford, and Research Associate at the Centre
of Islamic Studies, SOAS, University of London.Her publications focus on the Qur'an's
structure, its narratives, and its literary context. She has also worked extensively
on tales of the prophets within the medieval Islamic historiographical tradition and
on Qur'anic exegesis.
"This volume showcases a wide range of contemporary approaches to the identification
of literary structures within Qur'anic surahs. Recent academic studies of the Qur'an
have taken an increasing interest in the concept of the surah as a unity and, with
it, the division of complete surahs into consecutive sections or parts. Part One presents
a series of case studies focussing on individual Qur'anic surahs. Nevin Reda analyzes
the structure of Sūrat Āl ʻImrān (Q 3), Holger Zellentin looks at competing structures
within Sūrat al-ʻAlaq (Q 96), and A.H. Mathias Zahniser provides an exploration of
the ring structures that open Sūrat Maryam (Q 19). Part Two then focusses on three
discrete aspects of the text. Nora K. Schmid assesses the changing structural function
of oaths, Marianna Klar evaluates how rhythm, rhyme, and morphological parallelisms
combine in order to produce texture and cohesion, while Salwa El-Awa considers the
structural impact of connectives and other discourse markers with specific reference
to Sūrat Ṭāhā (Q 20). The final section of the volume juxtaposes contrasting attitudes
to the discernment of diachronic seams Devin Stewart examines surah-medial oracular
oaths, Muhammad Abdel Haleem questions a range of instances where suggestions of disjointedness
have historically been raised, and Nicolai Sinai. explores the presence of redactional
layers within Sūrat al-Nisāʼ (Q 4) and Sūrat al-Māʼidah (Q 5). Bringing a combination
of different approaches to Qur'an structure into a single book, written by well-established
and emerging voices in Qur'anic studies, the work will be an invaluable resource to
academics researching Islam, religious studies, and languages and literatures in general"
