 Scripturalist Islam: The History and Doctrines of the Akhbari Shi'i School (Islamic Philosophy, Theology, and Science) By Robert M. Gleave 2007 | 344 Pages | ISBN: 900415728X | PDF | 2 MB Akhbr Shi'ism was ""scripturalist"" in that Akhbrs believed that all questions of theology and law could be found in the texts of revelation. There was no need, they believed, to turn to alternative sources (such as reason or inspiration). This book offers the first detailed study of the School's doctrines and history.  Scriptural Figures and the Fringes of the New Testament Canon by Kelsie G. Rodenbiker English | 2025 | ISBN: 0197763294 | 284 Pages | True PDF | 21 MB  Scriptural Allusions and Exegesis in the Hodayot (Studies on the Texts of the Desert of Judah) By Julie A. Hughes 2006 | 282 Pages | ISBN: 900414739X | PDF | 2 MB It has long been noted that the Thanksgiving Hymns (Hodayot) from Qumran make extensive use of biblical language. A premise of this study of their use of scripture is that these compositions can best be understood by reading them as poetry. Using insights from the fields of comparative literature and biblical studies it establishes a method for analysis of the poems and for identification and analysis of scriptural allusions. Five poems have been chosen for detailed study. The question is asked, how would a reader familiar with the scriptural traditions of the period interpret these poems and why? The first chapter gives a useful overview of the scholarship to date and indicates the new avenues explored by this study.  Prachi Deshpande, "Scripts of Power: Writing, Language Practices, and Cultural History in Western India" English | ISBN: 8178246783 | 2023 | 338 pages | EPUB | 5 MB This book is a cultural history of western India from a fascinatingly new perspective: language use, writing practices, and relations of power. Its principal focus is the Modi script, a cursive form widely used for writing the Marathi language from the medieval era until quite recently. Examining the changing domains in which Modi flourished and declined over several centuries, Deshpande charts the interconnections of writing, script, language use, and structures of social and regional power in early-modern and modern South Asia. Positioning the career of this cursive form within a cluster of scripts, documents, and language practices, Scripts of Power tracks changing meanings within literate groups, bureaucratic power, and linguistic identity. It presents a critical genealogy of diverse power relations that produced the "regional vernaculars" of the Indian subcontinent - many of which, including Marathi, are official state languages in India today. Deshpande's cultural history reveals multiple fractures in language at its sites of usage over time. It unsettles the notions of language as merely instrumental for communication, or as a primordial basis for identity, and makes us see language as history and practice. In deploying script as its entry point for large reflections on the relationship of politics with language, identity, and power, this book will fascinate and absorb all who are interested in Indian cultural history.
