Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information

The Qur'ān is the primary religious text for one-sixth of the world's population. Understood by Muslims to contain God's own words,it has been an object of reverence and of intense study for centuries.The thousands of volumes that Muslim scholars have devoted to qur'ānic interpretation and to the linguistic, rhetorical and narrative analysis of the text are sufficient to create entire libraries of qur'ānic studies.

Drawing upon a rich scholarly heritage, Brill's Encyclopaedia of the Qur'ān (EQ) combines alphabetically-arranged articles about the contents of the Qur'ān. It is an encyclopaedic dictionary of qur'ānic terms, concepts, personalities, place names, cultural history and exegesis extended with essays on the most important themes and subjects within qur'ānic studies. With nearly 1000 entries in 5 volumes, the EQ is the first comprehensive, multi-volume reference work on the Qur'ān to appear in a Western language.

Encyclopaedia of the Qur'ān Online includes direct access to 62 Early Printed Western Qur'āns Online and the Electronic Qur'ān Concordance, a unique online finding aid for textual research.

Cross-referencing and indices

Frequent cross-references will draw readers to related entries and each article will conclude with a citation of relevant bibliography. The final volume of the EQ will contain indices of transliterated terms, of qur'ānic references and of the authors and exegetes cited in the entries and essays. It will also include a synoptic outline of the full contents of the EQ.

Fully international work

The EQ is a fully international work supported by an international board of advisors.Scholars from many nations have written articles for the encyclopaedia.
