Averroes on Pathways to Divine Knowledge

Beschreibung

Averroes sought to understand the divine independently of religious theology by turning to the philosophical works of Aristotle and, to a lesser extent, Plato. This volume explores the various pathways towards attaining divine knowledge that we find in Averroes' commentaries on Aristotle and Plato and in his independent works.
