商品描述
This is the first book to examine how pre-Islamic/Late Antique goddesses shaped the Qur'an, including its basic theology and cosmology. Exploring the traces found in the text of cultic veneration to goddesses of Arabia and the Ancient Near East, this book analyses what these traces tell us about female power in late antique Arabia, and how this power changed on the advent of Islam. While recent studies on the Qur'anic God have typically considered the question of divinity separately from gender, this book bridges the gap between these two questions, and is therefore an essential constructive mission. This mission adduces literary and documentary evidence--including recent scholarly revolutions in Syriac literature and Arabian epigraphy--and builds upon the critical insights of preceding studies in conversation with post-biblical and Near Eastern traditions.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這是第一本探討伊斯蘭教前/晚期古代女神如何塑造《古蘭經》的書籍，包括其基本神學和宇宙觀。本書探索了在阿拉伯和近東古代女神崇拜的文本中發現的痕跡，分析這些痕跡告訴我們關於晚期古代阿拉伯女性力量的情況，以及伊斯蘭教興起後這種力量的變化。近期對《古蘭經》上帝的研究通常將神性問題與性別問題分開考慮，而本書彌合了這兩個問題之間的差距，因此是一項必要的建設性使命。本使命提供文學和文獻證據，包括敘利亞文學和阿拉伯碑銘的最新學術革命，並借鑒了先前研究的關鍵見解，與後聖經和近東傳統進行對話。
