Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections From the Kur-An It has proved of considerable service to students of Arabic, who have found it the most accurate rendering in existence of a large part of the Kuran; and even native Muslims of India, ignorant of Arabic, have used Lane´s ´Selections´ as their Bible. In this edition I have endeavoured rather to carry out the original intention of the translator. Experience hits shown that the first plan was over-learned to commend itself to the average reader, for whom Mr. Lane laid destined the book; in this edition I have therefore omitted many of the notes, which will not be missed by the reader for whom the hook is intended, and for which the Arabic scholar hits only to refer to the first edition, or to Sale´s Koran, whence most of them wens derived. Again, the text of the first edition was obscured and interrupted by an interwoven commentary, which destroyed the pleasure of the language and often made tins meaningless intelligible than before. This commentary has been thinned. Where it added nothing to the text, it has been erased; where it gave a curious or valuable, explanation, it has been thrown into a footnote; where it merely supplied a necessary word to complete the sense, that word has been left in the text distinguished by a different type. Once more, the early and wilder soorahs were almost wholly omitted in the first edition, whilst the later more dogmatic and loss poetical soorahs were perhaps too fully represented. I have endeavoured to establish the balance between the two. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
