Multidisciplinarity, innovative and theoretically sophisticated scholarship. Challenges the more conservative strands of scholarship within the historiography Situates the rise of Islam within the world of Late Antiquity This multidisciplinary collective volume advances the scholarly discussion on the origins of Islam. It simultaneously focuses on three domains: texts, social contexts, and ideological developments relevant for the study of Islam's beginnings -- taking the latter expression in its broadest possible sense. The intersections of these domains need to be examined afresh in order to obtain a clear picture of the concurrent phenomena that collectively enabled both the gradual emergence of a new religious identity and the progressive delimitation of its initially fuzzy boundaries.
Industry Reviews
"Cet ouvrage a le merite de proposer des reflexions stimulantes et d'ouvrir des debats originaux et novateurs pour les etudes sur le Coran et les debuts de l'islam - contribution fort appreciable, dans un domaine ou de nombreux travaux, loin d'ouvrir des perspectives nouvelles, ont plutot tendance a fermer dogmatiquement des portes."
- Guillaume Dye, Universite libre de Bruxelles (ULB), Bulletin critique des Annales islamologiques, No. 36 (2022)
