- Framing Avicenna's Science of the Soul
248,95 - 1.608,95 kr. This book offers for the first time a comprehensive study of the reception and reworking of the Peripatetic theory of the soul in the Kitab al-Nafs (Book of the Soul) by Avicenna (d. 1037). This study seeks to frame Avicenna's science of the soul (or psychology) by focusing on three key concepts: subject, definition, and activity. The examination of these concepts will disclose the twofold consideration of the soul in Avicenna's psychology. Besides the 'general approach' to the soul of sublunary living beings, which is the formal principle of the body, Avicenna's psychology also exhibits a 'specific orientation' towards the soul in itself, i.e. the human rational soul that, considered in isolation from the body, is a self-subsistent substance, identical with the theoretical intellect and capable of surviving severance from the body. These two investigations demonstrate the coexistence in Avicenna's psychology of a more specific and less physical science (psychologia specialis) within a more general and overall physical one (psychologia generalis).

- Die Tabulae Vindobonenses Und Summaria Alexandrinorum Zu Galens de Sectis
1.853,95 kr. Die Tabulae Vindobonenses und Summaria Alexandrinorum sind Unterrichtswerke aus dem spätantiken Alexandria (5.-7. Jh.). Diese Werke waren als Ergänzung zu den Vorlesungen der alexandrinischen Medizinlehrer gedacht. Sie enthalten zentrale Inhalte aus den Schriften des Lehrplanautors Galen von Pergamon in Form von Begriffsunterteilungen (Dihairesen). Thema der vorliegenden Untersuchung sind die Abschnitte, die sich mit Galens Schrift De sectis (Über die medizinischen Gruppen) beschäftigen. Sie werden ediert, ins Deutsche übersetzt und in den Unterrichtskontext eingebettet.In der Studie werden nicht nur Texte erschlossen, die in der modernen Forschung bisher so gut wie keine Beachtung gefunden haben, sondern auch völlig neue Erkenntnisse über den Aufbau und die Didaktik des alexandrinischen Medizinunterrichtes erzielt. Sie kann außerdem als Ausgangspunkt für weitergehende Forschung über die Auswirkung dieser Lehrwerke dienen. So wurden sie im 9. Jh. ins Arabische übersetzt, wo sie das Genre der "Summaria" (Zusammenfassungen) begründeten und die Dihairesen als Darstellungsweise etablierten, die über lateinische Übersetzungen wiederum in den Westen gelangte und hier im Prinzip bis in die Moderne fortwirkt.

1.933,95 kr. This study focuses on the metaphysics of the great Arabic philosopher Avicenna (or Ibn Sina, d. 1037 C.E.). More specifically, it delves into Avicenna's theory of quiddity or essence, a topic which seized the attention of thinkers both during the medieval and modern periods. Building on recent contributions in Avicennian studies, this book proposes a new and comprehensive interpretation of Avicenna's theory of 'the pure quiddity' (also known as 'the quiddity in itself') and of its ontology. The study provides a careful philological analysis of key passages gleaned from the primary sources in Arabic and a close philosophical contextualization of Avicenna's doctrines in light of the legacy of ancient Greek philosophy in Islam and the early development of Arabic philosophy (falsafah) and theology (kalam). The study pays particular attention to how Avicenna's theory of quiddity relates to the ancient Greek philosophical discussion about the universals or common things and Mu'tazilite ontology. Its main thesis is that Avicenna articulated a sophisticated doctrine of the ontology of essence in light of Greek and Bahshamite sources, which decisively shaped subsequent intellectual history in Islam and the Latin West.

1.853,95 kr. Avicenna (Ibn S¿n¿) greatly influenced later medieval thinking about the earth and the cosmos, not only in his own civilization, but also in Hebrew and Latin cultures. The studies presented in this volume discuss the reception of prominent theories by Avicenna from the early 11th century onwards by thinkers like Averroes, Fahraddin ar-Razi, Samuel ibn Tibbon or Albertus Magnus. Among the topics which receive particular attention are the definition and existence of motion and time. Other important topics are covered too, such as Avicennäs theories of vacuum, causality, elements, substantial change, minerals, floods and mountains. It emerges, among other things, that Avicenna inherited to the discussion an acute sense for the epistemological status of natural science and for the mental and concrete existence of its objects. The volume also addresses the philological and historical circumstances of the textual tradition and sheds light on the translators Dominicus Gundisalvi, Avendauth and Alfred of Sareshel in particular. The articles of this volume are presented by scholars who convened in 2013 to discuss their research on the influence of Avicennäs physics and cosmology in the Villa Vigoni, Italy.
