In discussing the orientalists’ ventures into establishing the chronology of Qur’anic surahs, Khalifa says little about Gustav Fl't’1gel’s Coram‘ Textus Arabiscus (1834) and the theories propounded by Grimme and Hirschfield’s New Researches in the Composition and Eregesis of the Quran (1902).
ludeo—Christian antecedents of the Qur’an is taken up in Khalifa’s book, but he appears to have overlooked some quite significant writings in English on the subject: Hirschfeld (1902), Horovitis Jewish Proper Names and Derivatives in the Koran (1964), Katsh’s Judaism in Islam: Biblical and Talmudic Backgrounds ofzhe Quran and Its Commentaries (1954), and O’Shaughnessy’s The Development of the Meaning of Spirit in the Koran (1953).
Khalifa does not go in for any dense treatment of the orientalists’ translations of the Qur’an.
