    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    The European Qur’an. Islamic Scripture in European Culture and Religion 1150-1850 is a peer-reviewed book series with the EuQu project results. The volumes analyze the important role that the Qur’an has played in the formation of medieval and early modern European religious diversity and identity, deeply imbedded in the political and religious thought of Europe and part of the intellectual repertoire.

    Long description:

    The book is a collective work that addresses a critical gap in understanding the role of Islamic populations in European history through their manuscript cultures. By examining a diverse array of Islamic texts—particularly those preserved only in manuscript form—this book highlights the multifaceted interactions between Islamic and European traditions.

    The volume offers case studies based on four thematic cores: cataloguing and describing manuscripts, analyzing manuscript circulation and textual traditions, studying various scripts, and conducting diachronic linguistic analyses. The chapters delve into manuscripts of the Tatars of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Ottoman influences on South-Slavic literature, and significant Arabic texts in European collections.

    This collective volume not only enriches the scholarship on European Islam but also serves as an essential resource for historians, linguists, and manuscript scholars interested in the complex legacies of multicultural exchanges in Europe.
