A pioneering project at the crossroads of classical and digital humanities. This groundbreaking volume introduces the first structured method for exploring how Christians translated, interpreted, and contested the Qurʾān--from the late antique Mediterranean to early modern Europe. . It uncovers never-before-published manuscripts in Greek, Syriac, and Latin. The work deals with XML-based tools and thematic models to trace transmission, debate, and cross-cultural exchange. The book reveals how Christian-Muslim encounters shaped the image of Islam across Byzantine, Latin, and Eastern Christian worlds. It is a bold resource for scholars of religion, manuscript studies, and anyone rethinking the Qurʾān's place in Christian intellectual history.
