Opis

This volume is the first trilateral exploration of medieval scriptural interpretation. The vast literature written during the medieval period is one of both great diversity and numerous cross-cultural similarities. These essays explore this rich heritage of biblical and qur'anic interpretation.

Recenzje

For anyone involved in 'scriptual reasoning' or 'meetings for better understanding' with those of other faiths, or for those interested in the middle ages, this could be a valuable volume to dip into.
