The title of this issue, “Maurice Borrmans and Mohamed Talbi: From Friendship to Rupture,” was suggested to us by a collection of articles that highlight different aspects of the relationship between these two figures who marked the recent history of Islamic-Christian dialogue and who both passed away in 2017. As the title indicates, the friendship and collaboration in dialogue between Father Borrmans (who was a professor at PISAI for many decades) and Professor Talbi eventually broke down. These articles thus shed light on the fascinating history of two eminent scholars and their devoted activity in an important phase of the history of dialogue. These essays, covering various aspects of the life and work of Borrmans and Talbi, are offered by Geneviève Gobillot, Florence Javel, Antonio Navarro Carmona, Yosra Garmi, and Rémi Caucanas, who also compiled this collection of articles with Michel Younès.
A second group of articles takes up the theme of the previous issue (Islamochristiana 48), “Christian Theological Engagement with Islam.” Contributions are offered by Sidney H. Griffith, Tobias Specker, Daniel Brown, Felix Körner, and Gavin D’Costa. The latter essay is based on the lecture the author gave at a study day organized at PISAI on October 26, 2023, in which he analyzes the articles on “Christian theological engagement with Islam” published in Islamochristiana 48.
This issue of Islamochristiana also includes articles in two other thematic sections. Martino Masolo and Rémi Caucanas provide two contributions on “Islamic-Christian Relations in History.” Finally, a section entitled “Quranic Studies” includes four articles, two offered by Joaquín Paniello, Abdullah Saeed, and two in Arabic by Moulay Ahmed Saber and Adnane Mokrani.
This volume of Islamochristiana also offers the usual section of “Notes and Documents” and a wide collection of book reviews.
Le titre de ce numéro, “Maurice Borrmans et Mohamed Talbi : de l’amitié à la rupture”, nous a été suggéré par une collection d’articles qui mettent en évidence différents aspects de la relation entre ces deux figures qui ont marqué l’histoire récente du dialogue islamo-chrétien et qui sont tous deux décédés en 2017. Comme le titre l’indique, l’amitié et la collaboration dans le dialogue entre le père Borrmans (qui a été professeur au PISAI pendant de nombreuses décennies) et le professeur Talbi ont fini par se briser. Ces articles mettent donc en lumière l’histoire fascinante de deux éminents chercheurs et de leur activité dévouée dans une phase importante de l’histoire du dialogue. Ces essais, couvrant différents aspects de la vie et de l’œuvre de Borrmans et de Talbi, sont proposés par Geneviève Gobillot, Florence Javel, Antonio Navarro Carmona, Yosra Garmi et Rémi Caucanas, qui a également rassemblé ce recueil d’articles avec Michel Younès.
Un deuxième groupe d’articles reprend le thème du numéro précédent (Islamochristiana 48), “L’engagement théologique chrétien avec l’islam”. Les contributions sont proposées par Sidney H. Griffith, Tobias Specker, Daniel Brown, Felix Körner et Gavin D’Costa. Ce dernier essai est basé sur la conférence que l’auteur a donnée lors d’une journée d’étude organisée au PISAI le 26 octobre 2023 et dans lequel il analyse les articles sur “l’engagement théologique chrétien avec l’islam” publiés dans Islamochristiana 48.
Ce numéro d’Islamochristiana comprend également des articles dans deux autres sections thématiques. Martino Masolo et Rémi Caucanas fournissent deux contributions sur les “Relations islamo-chrétiennes dans l’histoire”. Enfin, une section intitulée « Études coraniques » comprend quatre articles, dont deux proposés par Joaquín Paniello, Abdullah Saeed, et deux en arabe par Moulay Ahmed Saber et Adnane Mokrani.
Ce volume d’Islamochristiana propose également la section habituelle des “Notes et documents” et un large recueil de recensions d’ouvrages.
عنوان هذا العدد، “موريس بورمانز ومحمد الطالبي: من الصداقة إلى القطيعة”، استوحي من مجموعة مقالات تسلط الضوء على جوانب مختلفة من العلاقة بين هاتين الشخصيتين اللتين تركتا بصمتهما في التاريخ الحديث للحوار الإسلامي المسيحي واللتان توفيتا كلتاهما في عام 2017. كما يشير العنوان، فإن الصداقة والتعاون في الحوار بين الأب بورمانز (الذي كان أستاذًا في المعهد البابوي للدراسات العربية والإسلامية لعقود عديدة) والأستاذ الطالبي انتهى بالانهيار. وبالتالي، تسلط هذه المقالات الضوء على التاريخ المثير للاهتمام لباحثين بارزين واثنين ونشاطهما المخلص في مرحلة مهمة من تاريخ الحوار. هذه المقالات، التي تغطي جوانب مختلفة من حياة بورمانز والطالبي وأعمالهما، يقترحها جنفييف غوبيو، فلورنس جافيل، أنطونيو نافارو كارمونا، يسرى قرمي وريمي كوكاناس، الذي جمع أيضًا هذه المجموعة من المقالات مع ميشيل يونس.
تستأنف مجموعة ثانية من المقالات موضوع العدد السابق (إسلاموكريستيانا 48)، “الانخراط اللاهوتي المسيحي مع الإسلام”. ويقترح المساهمات سيدني هـ. غريفيث، توبياس سبيكر، دانيال براون، فيليكس كورنر وغافين دي كوستا. ويستند المقال الأخير على المحاضرة التي ألقاها المؤلف خلال يوم دراسي نظمه المعهد البابوي للدراسات العربية والإسلامية في 26 أكتوبر 2023 والذي يحلل فيه المقالات حول “الانخراط اللاهوتي المسيحي مع الإسلام” المنشورة في إسلاموكريستيانا 48.
يتضمن هذا العدد من إسلاموكريستيانا أيضًا مقالات في قسمين موضوعيين آخرين. يقدم مارتينو ماسولو وريمي كوكاناس مساهمتين حول “العلاقات الإسلامية المسيحية في التاريخ”. وأخيرًا، يتضمن قسم بعنوان “الدراسات القرآنية” أربع مقالات، اثنتان منها بقلم خواكين بانييلو وعبد الله سعيد، واثنتان باللغة العربية بقلم مولاي أحمد صابر وعدنان المقراني.
يقدم هذا المجلد من إسلاموكريستيانا أيضًا القسم المعتاد “ملاحظات ووثائق” ومجموعة واسعة من مراجعات الكتب.
