Les traductions médiévales du Coran : une question de cumulativité ? (XIIe-début XVIe s.)

Résumé

This article considers and compares two periods of translation of the Koran (Qur'an). Medieval translations are better known today by the specialists, especially in what regards their techniques, their relation to Islamic exegesis and their social and cultural background. The old translations by Robert of Ketton and Mark of Toledo, had acquired a quasi Canonic status. In the 15th-16th centuries, new translations of the Koran are produced, particularly in the Iberian peninsula and Italy. Unsatisfied by previous productions, the new translators or patrons of the translating process (Juan of Segovia, Flavius Mithridates, Giles of Viterbo...) introduce new approaches, more specifically linguistic, with plurilingual editions, and make more space for Muslim exegesis. But the complexity of these new works limits their reception, and the Reformation and the early modern period will keep a strong connection with the older medieval translations.
