چکیده :
جریان مطالعات قرآنی مستشرقان از قرن دوازده میلادی به بعد سه دوره مشخص داشته است که دوره اول به انتقاد از قرآن بود و دوره دوم مطالعات قرآنی همراه حرکت استعماری و تبشیری گردید و در دوره سوم نقاب علمی به چهره زد، یکی از آثار دوره سوم کتاب «تفسیر معاصرانه قرآن کریم» (the study quran) در سال‌های اخیر به قلم چند نفر از مستشرقان آمریکایی و با سرویراستاری دکتر سید حسین نصر در هشت جلد شکل گرفت که جلد اول آن (شامل سوره حمد، بقره، آل عمران) به فارسی ترجمه و منتشر شد.
در این نوشتار به نقد روش‌شناختی این اثر پرداخته شده است.
نخست نقاط قوت این اثر از جمله: زبان انگلیسی اصیل و ترجمه روان آن و دفاع از وحیانیت قرآن بیان شده سپس به نقد مبانی، روش تفسیری و رویکرد عرفانی و نیز مواضع نویسندگان در مورد پلورالیسم دینی، کم رنگ کردن آیات مخالف یهود و مسیحیت، و نیز کمرنگ سازی آیات اهل بیت، دیدگاه شیعه و اعجاز قرآن پرداخته شده است.
و در نهایت این کتاب را موجب مهجوریت قرآن در عصر حاضر بویژه در جوامع غربی دانسته شده است.
