Cribratio Alchorani <Latin> / Sifting the Koran (1461) is a manuscript work by Nicolaus Cusanus.
Abstract
Written shortly after his De pace fidei (1453), it is a response to the Qur'an (as known through the Latin translation by Robert of Ketton) "from the standpoint of the Gospel of Christ," based on the assumption that all religions have a share in the absolute truth of the one religion.
Editions
The text widely circulated in manuscript form. In 1543 both the Latin text and the Greek version were included by Bibliander in his edition of the Qur'an.
