By examining the intersection of Islamic law, state law, religion, and culture in the Egyptian nation-building process, Recasting Islamic Law highlights how the sharia, when attached to constitutional commitments, is reshaped into modern Islamic state law.Rachel M. Scott analyzes the complex effects of constitutional commitments to the sharia in the wake of the Egyptian Revolution of 2011. She argues that the sharia is not dismantled by the modern state when it is applied as modern Islamic state law, but rather recast in its service. In showing the particular forms that the sharia takes when it is applied as modern Islamic state law, Scott pushes back against assumptions that introductions of the sharia into modern state law result in either the revival of medieval Islam or in its complete transformation. Scott engages with premodern law and with the Ottoman legal legacy on topics concerning Egypt's Coptic community, women's rights, personal status law, and the relationship between religious scholars and the Supreme Constitutional Court. Recasting Islamic Law considers modern Islamic state law's discontinuities and its continuities with premodern sharia.

Ausgehend von Nachlassmaterialien und Publikationen des Göttinger Orientalisten Paul de Lagarde (1827-1891) unternehmen die Beitragenden dieses Bandes eine wissenschaftsgeschichtliche Bestandsaufnahme zu Leben und Werk, aber auch zu politisch-weltanschaulichen Aspekten und insbesondere zu Lagardes Antisemitismus. Neben der Erörterung der Fachgeschichte deutscher (Alt-)Orientalistik und der durch Lagarde geprägten Septuaginta-Forschung erfolgt dabei auch eine zeitgeschichtliche Verortung vor den Hintergründen völkischer Ideologie und akademischer Netzwerke. Methodische Fragestellungen zu Erschließung und Edition des Nachlasses sowie den gesellschaftspolitischen Implikationen runden den Band ab. Based on the legacy and published works of the Göttingen orientalist Paul de Lagarde (1827-1891), the contributors to this volume undertake a historical inventory of his life and scientific work, including its political aspects, especially Lagarde's anti-Semitism. Besides describing the history of German Ancient Near Eastern Studies, the book also furnishes a broader context against the backdrop of then-prevalent "völkisch" ideology.
