Programme
The research unit The Bible in Arabic amongst Jews, Christians and Muslims (Biblia Arabica) – A Continued Exploration aims to provide a forum for engaging in discussion of the reception history of the Bible in the Arabic cultural context, through exploring specific examples of how biblical texts have been used, appropriated and transformed in monotheistic traditions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, operating in Arabic speaking word. Insights drawn from a wide range of scholarly disciplines, such as religious, cultural and literary studies or linguistics are encouraged and the reception history of any relevant text from the Bible will be considered suitable material for presentation and discussion.
