What is Classical Arabic Philosophy : An Anthology of Sources about?

This volume introduces the major classical Arabic philosophers through substantial selections from the key works (many of which appear in translation for the first time here) in each of the fields--including logic, philosophy of science, natural philosophy, metaphysics, ethics, and politics--to which they made significant contributions. An extensive Introduction situating the works within their historical, cultural, and philosophical contexts offers support to students approaching the subject for the first time, as well as to instructors with little or no formal training in Arabic thought. A glossary, select bibliography, and index are also included Eastern Medieval History & Surveys Philosophy General Title page 4 Copyright page 5 Contents 8 Preface 12 Introductions 18 al-Kindi 34 Ar-Razi 69 Al-Farabi 87 Baghdad Peripatetics 154 Ibn Sina 179 Al-Ghazali 271 Ibn Bajja 299 Ibn Tufayl 317 Ibn Rushd 327 As-Suhrawardi 400 Textual Notes 413 Bibliography 427 Glossary/Index: English/Arabig 436 Glossary/Index: Arabic-English 449
