Opis

This text examines one of the most dynamic periods in the development of medieval Islam - from the late 9th century to the early 11th century. The age is examined through the thought of its five principal thinkers and labelled after the first and greatest of these, the Age of Farabism. It is demonstrated in this book that the great Islamic philosopher al-Farabi, called the second master after Aristotle, produced a recognizable school of thought in which others pursued and developed some of his own intellectual preoccupations.
