"This volume advances the critical study of exegetical, doctrinal, and political authority in Shiʻi Islam. Naive dichotomies of "reason" and "esotericism" in Islamic Studies have often marginalized Shiʻi thought or impeded its understanding. The studies presented here aim to foster more exacting frameworks for interpreting the diverse modes of rationality and esotericism in Twelver and Ismaili Shiʻism and the socio-epistemic values they represent within Muslim discourse. The volume's contributions highlight the cross-sectarian genealogy of early Shiʻi esotericism; the rationale behind Fatimid Ismaili Quranic taʼwīl hermeneutics; the socio-political context of religious authority in nascent Twelver Shiʻism; authorial agency wielded by Imami hadith compilers; the position of esoteric Shiʻi traditions in Timurid-era Ḥilla; and Shiʻi-Sufi relations with Uṣūlī jurists in modern Iran"--
