The Fountain of Life: (Fons Vitae)

Bag om The Fountain of Life: (Fons Vitae)

Solomon ibn Gabirol is now best known for his work Fons Vitæ ('Fountain of Life') and for his philosophical doctrine that all things, including soul and intellect, are composed of matter and form, and for his emphasis on Divine Will. Fons Vitæ is a Neo-Platonic philosophical dialogue between master and disciple on the nature of Creation and how understanding what we are (our nature) can help us know how to live (our purpose). The work was originally composed in Arabic, of which no copies are extant. It has come down to us throughout the ages due to its translation into Latin (in 1150) by the Toledo School of Translators. NOTE: This edition by Azafran Books was published in September 2017 and has been edited and formatted by a team of dedicated real people - not an algorithm! Our books have been carefully published to the highest of standards.
