SUMMARY:Workshop: European Visions of the Qur'ān in the Middle Ages (9th-15th centuries)
DESCRIPTION:20-21 May 2021\nNantes\, Maison des Sciences de l’Homme Ange Guépin\n5 allée Jacques Berque\, 44021 Nantes Cedex 1\nSimone Veil Amphitheatre \nEvent online with Zoom – ## REGISTER NOW ONLINE ##\n \nRead the program \nDownload the poster \nAlthough the first Latin translation of the Qur’ān dates to 1143\, and its first vernacular (Italian) translation to 1547\, the sacred book of Islam was known far before in Europe\, where it elicited passionate and contrasting reactions\, ranging from vehement attacks concerning its content or composition to an acknowledgement of the aesthetics of its stylistic features and the universal human quality of its message. \nThe aim of this two-day workshop will be to address the different perspectives from which the Qur’an was approached and to identify the various attitudes medieval Latin readers adopted towards it. The focus is therefore on the medieval readers of the Qur’ān that encompasses the wide range of translators\, polemicists\, and commentators who had access to the Qur’ān or parts of it\, through the mechanisms of reading that they elaborated\, the ideas and data drawn from these readings\, and how these ideas sparked a plurality of responses. \nIn this perspective\, we will question the following lines of research: \n\nHow was the Qur’ān named\, defined\, and represented?\nHow was the Qur’ān judged and evaluated?\nHow was the Qur’ān read and understood?\nHow was the Qur’ān used\, transformed\, and exploited?\n\nList of speakers: \n\nEugenio Burgio – Samuela Simion – Université Ca’ Foscari\, Venise\nPierre Courtain – Université catholique de Louvain/Université de Nantes\nMichelina di Cesare – Université Roma 1\, Rome\nSara Fani – Université L’Orientale\, Naples\nOlivier Hanne – CREC-Saint-Cyr\, France\nAgustin Justicia Lara – Universita Autonoma Barcelona\nJacob Langeloh – Universität Freiburg\nVera Ribaudo – Université Ca’ Foscari\, Venise\nDavide Scotto – Goethe-Universität Frankfurt\nTristan Vigliano – Université d’Aix-Marseille\n\n  \nThe workshop is organized by Florence Ninitte and Irene Reginato\, Post-doc researchers at the University of Nantes within the ERC Synergy Grant EuQu.\n \nImage source:\n‘De mahomme qui donna loy aux sarazins’.
