Surveying the summae<\/em> :
Comparisons and Contrasts among Avicenna\u2019s Eight Main Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This meeting in 2021 instigated the format of the Avicenna Study Group<\/em> again, which after two successful meetings (2001<\/a> and 2002<\/a>) and the publication of two accompanying volumes (2003<\/a> and 2004<\/a>) was not continued after David C. Reisman\u2019s untimely passing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally planned for 03\u201305 June 2020, the Third International Meeting of the Avicenna Study Group had to be postponed due to the global health situation and was, then, organised as a weekly lecture series every Tuesday evening between 01 June and 13 July 2021. It featured fourteen papers<\/a> covering different philosophical disciplines (e.g., logic, physics, psychology, metaphysics) across the eight main works of Avicenna (al-\u1e24ikma al-\u02bfAr\u016b\u1e0diyya, \u02bfUy\u016bn al-\u1e25ikma, al-Hid\u0101ya, al-\u0160if\u0101\u02be, al-Na\u01e7\u0101t, D\u0101ne\u0161n\u0101me-ye \u02bfAl\u0101\u02be\u012b, al-\u1e24ikma al-ma\u0161riqiyya, al-I\u0161\u0101r\u0101t wa-l-tanb\u012bh\u0101t<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contributors investigated and assessed the relations between these eight works, their intended readership and Avicenna\u2019s intentions in them alongside his style, terminology, and arguments as well as his personal and doctrinal development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference was funded by the Fritz Thyssen Stiftung<\/a> and Trier University<\/a>. It was organised by Andreas Lammer, junior professor of Arabic Philosophy, Culture, and History<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
