Marijn van Putten: al-D¿n¿'s Tays¿r f¿ al-qir¿¿¿t al-sab¿, Gebunden

Klappentext

Al-Tays¿r f¿ al-Qir¿¿¿t al-Sab¿ by the 11th century Andalusian scholar ¿Ab¿ ¿Amr al-D¿n¿ is one of the most influential descriptions of the seven reading traditions of the Qur¿¿n. It is the work on which the later didactic poem by al-Š¿¿ib¿ was based, which still stands as the basis for the teaching of the reading traditions among Muslim specialists. This book makes the highly technical genre of the Qur¿¿nic reading traditions accessible through a rigorous translation of al-D¿n¿'s work with extensive elucidating footnotes. Besides a full translation of the text, the book also includes an in-depth introduction, which lays out the history of the reading traditions, details of their transmission, the technical terminology of the Qir¿¿¿t genre, and summarises the linguistic principles of the reading traditions using modern linguistic terminology and illustrative tables
