HOW EARLY MUSLIM SCHOLARS ASSIMILATED ARISTOTLE AND MADE IRAN THE INTELLECTUAL CENTER OF THE ISLAMIC WORLD: A Study of Falsafah; Copyright Page; Dedication; Table of Contents; Foreword; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Part One: Commentaries on Aristotle; Part Two: Commentaries on Aristotle and Islam; Part Three: Commentaries on Islam; Part Four: Commentaries on Islam and Iran; Part Five: Commentaries on Iran; Notes; Bibliography; Index.
This work demonstrates how falsafah(which linguistically refers to a group of commentaries by Muslim scholars associated with their readings of the Corpus Aristotelicum) in Iran has been always closely linked with religion. It also shows that after the introduction of Islamic falsafah (and the onset of the Corpus Aristotelicum in Baghdad in 899 AD), the blending of the new natural theology and the vibrant Iranian culture gave birth to a new making of intellectual sway which soon made Iran the center of falsafah (and sciences) in the Medieval world.
