Islamic Philosophy

A survey of major philosophers from the classical period of Islamic thought. Among those whose works we will sample are Kindī (Alkindi), Rāzī (Rhazes), Fārābī (Alfarabi), Ibn Sīnā (Avicenna), Ġazālī (Algazel), Ibn Rušd (Averroes), and Ibn Bajja (Avempace). We will give special attention, as did they, to the relation between philosophy and prophecy and that between philosophy and theology, to Islamic occasionalism, and to the nature and destiny of the soul.
