Pedagogy of the Heart: Grammar, Philosophy, and the Christian Reader in Origen's Greek Homilies on the Psalms /
:
This monograph presents a detailed and accessible analysis of the recently discovered Greek Homilies on the Psalms preached by Origen in the late 240's CE. The author brings a discerning eye to the interplay of Hellenistic paideia and Origen's exegetical and pedagogical aims of creating a Christian reading culture. In so doing, he also challenges the traditional dichotomy of school and church in the third century. The reader will discover Origen the teacher applying the critical tools of his time in order to cultivate the Christian reader in purity of heart.

The Ẓāhirī Madhhab (3rd/9th-10th/16th century) : a textualist theory of Islamic law /
:
In this book, Amr Osman seeks to expand and re-interpret what we know about the history and doctrine of the Ẓāhirī madhhab . Based on an extensive prosopographical survey, he concludes that the founder, Dāwūd al-Ẓāhirī, was closer in profile and doctrine to the Ahl al-Ra'y than to the Ahl al-Ḥadīth . Furthermore, Ibn Ḥazm al-Andalusī may have had a damaging effect on the madhhab , which never actually developed into a full-fledged school of law. By examining the meaning of ' ẓāhir ' and modern scholarship on 'literalism', he challenges the view that Ẓāhirism was literalist, proposing 'textualism' as an accurate reflection of its premises, methodology, and goals as a hermeneutical and legal theory.
