Description

This “Trial translation” of the Quran required sixteen years of work and all-encompassing dedication to the study of Islam on the part of Jacques Berque. Both scholarly and literary, this monumental work, revealing an intimate familiarity with the Arab world and Islamic tradition, was recognised as a seminal moment in the study of this culture by the French speaking public. Following four years of additional work, Jacques Berque, indefatigable in his exploration of the infinite subtleties of the language of the Quran, improved his text with the addition of numerous amendments based on the feedback of an erudite readership and particularly that of Islamic sheikhs. This completely revised second edition, reintroduces us to the Quran by examining its origins, opening up perspectives on an enlightened Islam where faith and reason both have their place.
