Davidson, Herbert A., Alfarabi, Avicenna and Averroes on intellect : their cosmologies, theories of active intellect and theories of the human intellect, Nova York - Oxford, Oxford University Press, 1992, x + 363 pp.
- Resum
- The distinction between the potential intellect and the active intellect was first drawn by Aristotle. Medieval Islamic, Jewish, Christian philosophers, and European philosophers in the sixteenth century considered it a possible key to deciphering the nature of man and the universe. In this book, Herbert Davidson examines the treatment of intellect in Alfarabi (d. 950), Avicenna (980-1037) and Averroes (1126-1198), with particular attention to the way in which they addressed the tangle of issues that grew up around the active intellect.
