On the Allegedly Overstated Importance of at-̣ Tạ barī (d. 310/922) within the Sunnī Exegetical Tradition
The classical tafsīr work Ǧāmiʿ al-bayān ʿan taʾwīl āy al-Qurʾān by aṭ-Ṭabarī (d. 310/923) has long served as the basis for much of what we know about the early Islamic exegetical tradition, and it continues to be a central focus of scholarly attention.

Islamic scholars who thought that they could not understand these letters, have…
The Influence of Western Qur'anic Scholarship in Turkey
After first surveying the development of academic studies of Islam within the modern Turkish higher education system, this essay provides an inventory of material that has been translated from Western languages into Turkish. It is inevitable that orientalist studies will have a place of tremendous importance in this analysis. However, approaches to the Qur'an and its exegesis which have been developed under the influence of the Western scientific…
