Anatomy of a text: Qurʾānic Commentary in the Formative Period of Islam

The seminar presents the case of a previously unknown and fragmentary manuscript in Arabic attributed to a rather prominent scholar, Sufyān al-Thawrī (d. 171 AH/778 CE), who was active in the second century of Islam. The manuscript contained a partial commentary on some Qurʾānic verses. The research shows how establishing the origins of this document and determining the character of the text, using textual-historical methods, help us reconstruct what the Qurʾānic commentary might have looked like beyond the recorded contents of the text.
