Reviews
"Both parts of this volume, the edition and the introduction, are equally impressive, displaying as comfortable and sure a hand with the technicalities of codicology as with scrutiny and assessment of the Sanaa palimpsest as an historical object. Hilali's technical as well as analytical judgements are sober and acutely insightful. They disallow the intrusion of anachronistic considerations and the inflection of judgement by unnecessary yet all-too-common theological or doctrinal assumptions. Instead, the author's interpretation and choices display a keen sense for clues, and open avenues towards reconstructing one more element in the jigsaw puzzle that is the interconnected histories of Qur'anic enunciation, composition, reiteration, redaction, and early circulation."--Aziz al-Azmeh, University Professor, Department of History, Central European University, Budapest "Dr Hilali's anticipated publication on the Sanaa palimpsest provides fresh material for the further study of this fascinating document and offers new hypotheses about its origins. I have no doubt that the field of Qur'anic studies will greatly benefit from her insightful study."--Franois Droche, Professor of the History of the Qur'an (Text and Transmission), Collge de France, "Asma Hilali's reconstruction of the Sanaa Palimpsest affords a privileged glimpse into the most fundamental aspect of qur'anic studies: the recovery of very early fragmented (and often indecipherable) texts. ... Though hers is a highly technical study, Hilali writes with such clarity, ... that even non-specialist readers will find it useful, and, indeed, fascinating. ... The annotated edition of both texts is quite simply masterly. It is on the foundation of such determined and painstaking labour as Asma Hilali has performed that subsequent syntheses, ... must eventually depend." -- Eric Ormsby, Times Literary Supplement "...you cannot help but enjoy The Sanaa Palimpsest. It is extremely thorough, clearly written, remarkably accessible (especially for content so technical), historically illuminating, and incredibly interesting for anyone with a love for religious studies." -- Jerod A.

Synopsis
This volume provides a new annotated edition of the two layers of the 'Sanaa palimpsest', one of the oldest Qur'an manuscripts yet discovered, together with a critical introduction that offers new hypotheses concerning the transmission of the Qur'an during the first centuries of Islam. The palimpsest contains two superimposed Qur'anic texts within two layers of writing, on thirty-eight leaves of parchment collectively numbered MS 01-27.1 in the Dar al-Makhtutat (lit. 'the House of Manuscripts') in Sanaa, Yemen. The palimpsest's lower text, which has been dated to the first century of Islam (seventh century CE), was subsequently erased and the parchment was later reused for writing another Qur'anic text, which remains visible in natural light. This upper text is thought to date from the second century of Islam (eighth century CE). The two layers were imaged in 2007 by a French-Italian mission. Both Qur'anic texts are fragmented and present aspects of work in progress. In its lower layer, the manuscript offers the oldest witness of a reading instruction in a Qur'an text and perhaps even in any Arabic text. Such peculiarities offer rare evidence as to how the Qur'an was transmitted, taught and written down in the first centuries of Islam. In this book, Asma Hilali presents an annotated edition of the texts, together with a critical introduction. These contextualise the volume within the field of Qur'an manuscript studies, and engage with the historical and institutional contexts of transmission of the Qur'anic passages. The volume also makes systematic reference to previous studies and partial editions of the same manuscript., This volume provides a new annotated edition of the two layers of the 'Sanaa palimpsest', one of the oldest Qur'an manuscripts yet discovered, together with a critical introduction that offers new hypotheses concerning the transmission of the Qur'an during the first centuries of Islam.

Asma Hilali also makes systematic reference to previous studies and partial editions of the same manuscript., An edition and commentary of selected passages of the manuscript known as the "Sanaa Palimpsest." The palimpsest provides, in both the upper and lower texts, evidence for how the Qur'an was trasmitted, taught, and written down in the first centuries of Islam.

- e***n (392)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
