Description: Among the many challenges of translating the Qur n are its unpredictable complexity evocative associativity and polysemy. For these reasons as well as more demanding theological ones most translations cut compress paraphrase and invent freely. In this meticulously crafted translation of the Qur n A. J. Droge takes a different approach by revealing the Qur n's distinctive idiom in a rendition that strives to remain as close as possible to the way it was expressed in Arabic. His goal has been to make the translation literal to the point of transparency as well as to maintain consistency in the rendering of words and phrases and even to mimic word order wherever possible. Originally published in 2013 in an edition with annotations commentary and other scholarly apparatuses Droge's widely praised translation is presented here as a stand - alone text with a new introduction ideal for students and general readers alike.
