The volume brings together seventeen studies on Avicenna by Dimitri
Gutas, written over the past twenty-five years. They aim to
establish Avicenna's historical and philosophical context as a
means to determining his philosophical project and the orientations
of his thought. They deal with his life and works, his method, his
epistemology, and his later reception in the Islamic world, ending
with a programmatic essay on the state of the field of Avicennan
studies and future agenda. Occasioned by issues raised in Gutas's
monograph on Avicenna and the Aristotelian Tradition (whose second
edition has just appeared), they form a substantive complement to
it. For this reprint, a number of the essays have been reset and
accordingly revised and updated. Provided with exhaustive indexes
of names, places, subjects, and technical terms, the volume
constitutes a new and major research tool for the study of Avicenna
and his heritage. (CS1050).
