In this book, Rasoul Namazi offers the first in-depth study of Leo
Strauss' writings on Islamic political thought, a topic that
interested Strauss over the course of his career. Namazi's volume
focuses on several important studies by Strauss on Islamic thought.
He critically analyzes Strauss's notes on Averroes' commentary on
Plato's Republic and also proposes an interpretation of Strauss'
theologico-political notes on the Arabian Nights. Namazi also
interprets Strauss' essay on Alfarabi's enigmatic treatise, The
Philosophy of Plato and provides a detailed commentary on his
complex essay devoted to Alfarabi's summary of Plato's Laws. Based
on previously unpublished material from Strauss' papers, Namazi's
volume provides new insights into Strauss' reflections on religion,
philosophy, and politics, and their relationship to wisdom,
persecution, divine law, and unbelief in the works of key Muslim
thinkers. His work presents Strauss as one of the most innovative
historians and scholars of Islamic thought of all time.
