TRS 399 Islamic Thought: Selected Topics
Just as biblical themes and stories have permeated much of western civilization, so Islamic culture, both Arabic and non-Arabic, is imbued with quranic imagery. Through a close reading of a selection of writings from the Islamic word (in English translation), TRS 399 will explore the relationship between the quranic text and later Islamic civilization. Topics covered will include stories of the prophets, family law, and contemporary approaches to the Quran.
