The history of reciting the Quran has been rarely studied. This volume comprises most of the papers presented at the Third IDEO Conference held in Cairo in October 2020 on reciting in the early Islamic empire. It offers a space for reflecting on the different types of reciting in the Middle East from the late sixth to the ninth century C.E., including ‘Islamic religious’ contexts (Quran, Hadith), ‘non-Islamic religious’ contexts (Zoroastrianism, Syriac Christianity), and ‘secular’ contexts (graffiti). These types of recitation serve as a starting point for a reflection on the literary genres of the texts recited, on the recitation techniques, as well as on the agents of recitation and the socio-political contexts linked to the act of reciting.
L’histoire de la récitation coranique est une question peu étudiée. Ce volume est constitué d’un dossier rassemblant la plupart des communications tenues lors du troisième colloque de l’IDÉO au Caire en octobre 2020 sur la récitation dans les premiers siècles de l’islam. Il offre un espace de réflexion sur les différents types de récitations au Proche-Orient de la fin du VIe siècle jusqu’au IXe siècle de l’ère commune : des contextes « religieux islamiques » (le Coran, le Hadith), “religieux non islamiques” (le zoroastrisme, le christianisme syriaque) et « profanes » (les graffiti). Ces types de récitations servent de point de départ pour une réflexion sur les genres littéraires des textes récités, sur les techniques de récitation, mais aussi sur les acteurs de la récitation et les contextes socio-politiques liés à l’acte de la récitation.
لم يحظَ بعد موضوعُ تأريخ قراءة القرآن كلّ الاهتمام الأكاديميّ الواجب. يحتوي هذا العدد من مجلّة المعهد الدومنيكيّ على ملفٍّ يجمع معظم الأبحاث المقدَّمة في الندوة الثالثة للمعهد الدومنيكيّ بالقاهرة الّذي عُقد في شهر أكتوبر٢٠٢٠ حول القراءة في القرون الأُولى من الإسلام. أتاحتْ هذه الندوة مساحةً للبحث عن أشكال القراءة المختلفة في الشرق الأوسط من أواخر القرن السادس إلى القرن التاسع الميلاديّين، بما يشمل السياقات «الدينيّة الإسلاميّة» (القرآن والحديث)، و«الدينيّة غير الإسلاميّة» (الزرادشتيّة والمسيحيّة السريانيّة) و«غير الدينيّة» (المنقوشات). تمثّل هذه الأنواع من القراءة نقطة الانطلاق للبحث في الأنواع الأدبيّة للنصوص المقروءة وطرق القراءة والقرّاء والسياقات الاقتصاديّة والسياسيّة المرتبطة بظاهرة القراءة.
