Literary Structures of Religious Meaning in the Qu'ran
Author: Issa J Boullata
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136117067
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
This volume studies how the literary elements in the Qur'an function in conveying its religious message effectively. It is divided into three parts. Part one includes studies of the whole Qur'an or large segments of it belonging to one historical period of its revelation; these studies concentrate on the analysis of its language, its style, its structural composition, its aesthetic characteristics, its rhetorical devices, its imagery, and the impact of these elements and their significance. Part two includes studies on individual suras of the Qur'an, each of which focuses on the sura's literary elements and how they produce meaning; each also explores the structure of this meaning and the coherence of its effect. Part three includes studies on Muslim appreciations of the literary aspects of the Qur'an in past generations and shows how modern linguistic, semantic, semiotic, and literary scholarship can add to their contributions.

Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1036409473
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 192

James Joyce is one of the most well-known modernist writers of the twentieth century, whose novels are special in that they use a form that he popularized first in English literature – the stream-of-consciousness style.

It is the aim of Dr. Deb to discover the various ways that Joyce uses to bring out the thematic nuances of the novel. This book is a collection of nineteen critical essays on James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist, and the author has gone beyond the established critical material on this novel, providing analyses from twenty-first century lenses. This book will serve as a reference point for all types of readers of the novel – students, scholars, teachers, and also the common reader.
