de Gruyter |
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam - Tension, Transmission,
Transformation (JCIT) brings together innovative volumes
exploring the reception and mediation of ideas and practices in the
three monotheistic traditions of Judaism,
Christianity, and Islam, from antiquity to the twenty-first century.
Monographs, collected works, text editions, and bibliographic databases
address their intertwining relations in various historical and
geographical contexts. The series is intentionally interdisciplinary,
inviting proposals across disciplines dealing with at least two of these
three religions. Among the research areas to be studied are, for
example, Greek, Hebrew, Syriac, Arabic, Latin, and Ottoman cultural
spheres; the Enlightenment and modernity in various contexts;
imperialism, colonialism, postcolonialism, and globalization. Attention
is given to exegesis and intertextuality, political models and patterns
of social order, spiritual symbols and images, scholarly interactions
and mystical experiences. The series is relevant to scholars as well as
to those interested and engaged in interreligious exchange. |

Band 18
Arabischsprachige Evangelikale in Israel stehen in einem
komplexen Identitätskonflikt: Sie sind israelisch, aber nicht jüdisch,
arabisch und palästinensisch, aber nicht muslimisch, christlich, aber
nicht traditionell-christlich, sondern evangelikal. Diesen
Identitätskonflikt untersucht die Studie mittels in Nazareth erhobener
ethnographischer Daten, die sie auf ihre Vorgeschichte und globale
Verflechtung hin befragt. Sie zeigt auf, dass sich die
arabischsprachigen Evangelikalen in Israel mit ihrer Hervorhebung des
Glaubens und intensiven Frömmigkeit nicht dem Konflikt und der Welt
entziehen, sondern eine aktive Kritik vorbringen, insbesondere an dem
christlich-evangelikalen Zionismus und der Politisierung von Religion in
Israel. Damit eröffnet die Studie neue Perspektiven auf Religion und
Nation in Israel und das Verhältnis von Politik und Religion. |

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – Tension, Transmission, Transformation
Band 13 Sprache: Englisch Arabic and Greek
Discourses of Reform in the Age of Nationalism
Since the Mediterranean connects cultures, Mediterranean studies have by
definition an intercultural focus. Throughout the modern era, the
Ottoman Empire has had a lasting impact on the cultures and societies of
the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean. However, the modern Balkans are
usually studied within the context of European history, the southern
Mediterranean within the context of Islam. Although it makes sense to
connect both regions, this is a vast field and requires a command of
different languages not necessarily related to each other. Investigating
both Greek and Arabic sources, this book will shed some light on the
significance of ideas in the political transitions of their time and how
the proponents of these transitions often became so overwhelmed by the
events that they helped trigger adjustments to their own ideas. Also,
the discourses in Greek and Arabic reflect the provinces of the Ottoman
Empire and it is instructive to see their differences and commonalities
which helps explain contemporary politics.

Band 11 Sprache: Englisch Border Crossing in Jewish, Christian and
Islamic Texts and Images The scientific debates on border crossings
and cultural exchange between Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have much
increased over the last decades. Within this context, however, little
attention has been given to the biblical Exodus, which not only plays a
pivotal role in the Abrahamic religions, but also is a master narrative
of a border crossing in itself. Sea and desert are spaces of liminality
and transit in more than just a geographical sense. Their passage
includes a transition to freedom and initiation into a new divine
community, an encounter with God and an entry into the Age of law. The
volume gathers twelve articles written by leading specialists in Jewish
and Islamic Studies, Theology and Literature, Art and Film history,
dedicated to the transitional aspects within the Exodus narrative.
Bringing these studies together, the volume takes a double approach, one
that is both comparative and intercultural. How do Jewish, Christian and
Islamic texts and images read and retell the various border crossings in
the Exodus story, and on what levels do they interrelate? By raising
these questions the volume aims to contribute to a deeper understanding
of contact points between the various traditions. |

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – Tension, Transmission, Transformation
Band 10 Sprache: Englisch Few studies focus on the modes of
knowledge transmission (or concealment), or the trends of continuity or
change from the Ancient to the Late Antique worlds. In Antiquity,
knowledge was cherished as a scarce good, cultivated through the close
teacher-student relationship and often preserved in the closed circle of
the initated. From Assyrian and Babylonian cuneiform texts to a Shi'ite
Islamic tradition, this volume explores how and why knowledge was shared
or concealed by diverse communities in a range of Ancient and Late
Antique cultural contexts. From caves by the Dead Sea to Alexandria,
both normative and heterodox approaches to knowledge in Jewish,
Christian and Muslim communities are explored. Biblical and qur'anic
passages, as well as gnostic, rabbinic and esoteric Islamic approaches
are discussed. In this volume, a range of scholars from Assyrian
studies to Jewish, Christian and Islamic studies examine diverse
approaches to, and modes of, knowledge transmission and concealment,
shedding new light on both the interconnectedness, as well as the unique
aspects, of the monotheistic faiths, and their relationship to the
ancient civilisations of the Fertile Crescent. |

Der koranhermeneutische Ansatz des Islamwissenschaftlers
Günter Lüling wurde jahrzehntelang von Fachvertretern totgeschwiegen,
was Nahrung für Verschwörungstheorien lieferte. Seine Theorie, dass der
Koran seinen Ursprung im alten Christentum habe, widersprach der
traditionellen Wissenschaft seiner Zeit. Der Band enthält
Forschungsbeiträge, in denen Lülings Werk erstmals kritisch gewürdigt
wird. |

Islam gilt in einer globalisierten Welt als unverzichtbar, um friedliche
Koexistenz von Menschen unterschiedlicher Religion zu sichern. Auch die
orthodoxe Kirche hat sich im interreligiösen Dialog engagiert und zu
einem Miteinander der Religionen beigetragen. Die Studie beleuchtet
unmittelbar die in ökumenischem Kontext entstandenen Beiträge der
autokephalen orthodoxen Kirchen seit den 1980er Jahren bis heute.

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – Tension, Transmission, Transformation
Band 5 Sprache: Englisch Is it possible to rethink the
multilayered and polyvalent Christology of the Qur’an against the
intersecting of competing peripheral Christianities, anti-Jewish
Christian polemics, and the making of a new Arab state in the
7th-century Near East? To what extent may this help us to decipher,
moreover, the intricate redactional process of the quranic corpus? And
can we unearth from any conclusions as to the tension between a
messianic-oriented and a prophetic-guided religious thought buried in
the document? By analysing, first, the typology and plausible date of
the Jesus texts contained in the Qur’an (which implies moving far beyond
both the habitual chronology of the Qur’an and the common thematic
division of the passages in question) and by examining, in the second
place, the Qur’an’s earliest Christology via-à-vis its later (and indeed
much better known) Muhamadan kerygma, the present study answers these
crucial questions and, thereby, sheds new light on the Qur’an’s original
sectarian milieu and pre-canonical development. |

Band 3 This volume represents the first in-depth, analytical and
systematic study of the core components and theological rationale of
Theodore Abu Qurrah's apologetic discourses in conversation with Islam,
with specific attention to his writings on the Trinity and Christology.
It explores the question of whether, in conveying orthodoxy in Arabic to
the Muslim reader, Abu Qurrah diverged from doctrinal Christian theology
and compromised its core content. |

Band 1
Islamic and Christian Traditions and Legacies
Sprache: Englisch This volume explores theoretical discourses in
which religion is used to legitimize political violence. It examines the
ways in which Christianity and Islam are utilized for political ends, in
particular how violence is used (or abused) as an expedient to justify
political action. This research focuses on premodern as well as
contemporary discourses in the Middle East and Latin America,
identifying patterns frequently used to justify the deployment of
violence in both hegemonic and anti-hegemonic discourses. In addition,
it explores how premodern arguments and authorities are utilized and
transformed in order to legitimize contemporary violence as well as the
ways in which the use of religion as a means to justify violence alters
the nature of conflicts that are not otherwise explicitly religious. It
argues that most past and present conflicts, even if the discourses
about them are conducted in religious terms, have origins other than
religion and/or blend religion with other causes, namely socio-economic
and political injustice and inequality. Understanding the use and abuse
of religion to justify violence is a prerequisite to discerning the
nature of a conflict and might thus contribute to conflict resolution. |
