The Role and Use of Hermeneutics and Intertextuality in Translating Mystical and Esoteric Texts: A Comparative Study on Pickthall's and Nasr's Translation of the Quran - Softcover
Synopsis
Master's Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Speech Science / Linguistics, grade: 19.25, University of Tehran, language: English, abstract: This study claims to have studied the pragmatic use and role of hermeneutics and intertextuality in translating esoteric and mystical contexts of the Quran.
