History of research (1850s -- Notes

Theodor Nöldeke

Ignác Goldziher

In 1860 Theodor Nöldeke published another relevant historical-critical introduction to the Quranic textus receptus. The historical understanding of Muhammed progressed thanks to the studies of Aloys Sprenger between 1861 and 1865, William Muir between 1858 and 1861, and again Nöldeke in 1863. Hartwig Hirschfeld (1878, 1886), William Muir (1878), and Charles Cutler Torrey (1892) are other authors who significantly contributed to the development of Early Islamic Studies in the second half of the 19th century. But modern scholarship on Islam's origins is indebted in particular to the groundbreaking works of Ignaz Goldziher (1850-1921), whose Muhammedanische Studien, published in 2 vols. between 1889 and 1890, represented a first, successful and in many ways still valid attempt to thoroughly examine the making and early development of Islamic identity, and its literature, against their complex historical and religious setting.
