"This book is a study of the poetics of Qurʼanic narrative, specifically the poetics of Surat al-Baqara, the second and longest sura in the Qurʼan. It argues that the sura, which has often been dismissed by Orientalist critics as a jumbled collection of unrelated material, can be appreciated as a coherent composition by approaching it as an oral text, that is, by paying attention to oral structural markers such as repetition."--
