Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. IblXXXXs, the character in the Qur'an who refuses God's command to bow to Adam and is punished by eviction from heaven, is commonly depicted as a fiendish character no different from Satan. However, some Sufi stories describe IblXXXXs as the ultimate monotheist, a lover of God, but tragically rejected. This volume seeks the origins of this alternative IblXXXXs within the Qur'an itself, by looking at each of the seven Qur'anic versions of the IblXXXXs story as a unique rendering of the basic narrative. Whitney Bodman finds that the likely earliest version of the IblXXXXs story presents him as a tragic figure, an elder sibling of Adam unjustly displaced from God's favor. Subsequent renderings present an IblXXXXs more hostile to humanity, and in the last two abbreviated versions IblXXXXs becomes an incidental figure in the extended story of Adam.In modern Arab literature the character of IblXXXXs is deployed to reveal tragic dimensions of modern life. Although it is often said that there is no place for tragedy in Islam, Bodman's careful examination of the IblXXXXs story shows that the tragic exists even in the Qur'an and forms part of the vision of medieval Sufi mystics and modern social critics alike. This volume explores the origins of Iblis as a tragic figure in the Quran. Although it is often said that there is no place for tragedy in Islam, Bodmans careful examination of the Iblis story shows that the tragic exists even in the Quran and forms part of the vision of medieval Sufi mystics and modern social critics alike.
