Thanks go first and foremost to my thesis advisor Todd Lawson, who over the years has shared his vast knowledge of Islamic thought with me in unstinting measure. Not only did he see to it that each page of this study conformed to his rigorous academic standards, but he has, through all of my successes and failures, always been a gracious friend and supporter. Apart from offering helpful comments on the present work at different stages of its gestation, I have also had the fortunate opportunity to learn from Sebastian Günther, Maria Subtelny, Shafique Virani, and the late Michael Marmura. Other teachers from whom I have greatly benefited include Talal Ahdab, Deborah Black, Richard Blackburn, Nasser Danesh, Thomas Robinson, Walid Saleh, and Liyakat Takim. In many ways, they have bestowed upon me the foundational tools necessary for the kind of undertaking presented here. Seyyed Hossein Nasr’s encouragement and guidance from the very outset of this project has been crucial, as has been the time William Chittick spent with me reading the works of Mullå Ṣadrå. Caner Dagli, Robert Dobie, Atif Khalil, Mohammad Hassan Khalil, Joel Richmond, Sajjad Rizvi, Kristin Sands, John Walbridge, and SUNY Press’s two anonymous reviewers all provided essential feedback on various aspects of the present study. Nasrin Askari, Ryan Brizendine, Shiraz Sheikh, and my research assistant Rizwan Mohammad have kindly taken care of many nitty-gritty details related to the book, and a number of scholars sent along important references. Specific thanks in this regard are due to Peter Adamson, Jules Janssens, Farhana Mayer, Matthew Melvin-Koushki, James Morris, Gregor Schwarb, and Alexander Treiger. ix 33763_SP_RUS_FM_00i-xii.indd 9 5/15/12 7:59 AM x Acknowledgments Over the course of a decade of study at the University of T oronto, on the administrative side of things, Anna Sousa, Jennie Jones, and Elaine Genius have offered a helping hand every step of the way. At Carleton University, the support of my colleagues in the College of the Humanities in general, and Farhang Rajaee and Kim Stratton in particular, has made academic life all the better. Research for this book was made possible through doctoral fellowships courtesy of the University of Toronto and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, an Ontario Graduate Scholarship, and the Davidson Fund in Religious Studies at Carleton University. Carleton’s Office of the Dean (Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences) administered a grant in order to commission the artwork which adorns the front cover. For facilitating my research in Iran, I would like to acknowledge the assistance of Hamid Mohammadi at the Iranian Embassy in Ottawa, Jalil Hosseini of the Tehran-based Organization of Culture and Islamic Relations, and Gholamreza Aavani, former director of the Iranian Institute of Philosophy. A paragraph from the Introduction originally appeared in Comparative Islamic Studies 4, no. 1 (2008): 89, and a sixth of Chapter 1 in the Journal of Qur’anic Studies 9, no. 1 (2007): 128–31, 3. These materials have been reworked into the present book by kind permission of Equinox Publishers and Edinburgh University Press respectively. Last, but certainly not least, heartfelt thanks go to my family. My parents have supported me from the start, and for this I am very grateful. Abbi, Ammi, my son Isa Ahmed, as well as my siblings, nieces, and nephews have all enriched my work in their own unique way. My wife Nosheen has made innumerable sacrifices and has always sought to create for me an ambience in which I could carry out my research. This book is dedicated to her. 33763_SP_RUS_FM_00i-xii.indd 10 5/15/12 7:59 AM Transliterations and Abbreviations Transliterations Arabic and Persian words, proper names, and book/article titles have been transliterated in accordance with the system employed by the International Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, with the exception that no distinction is made in transliterating consonants shared between Arabic and Persian.

Ibråh¥m al-Sh¥råz¥ (d. 1050/1640)—more commonly known as Mullå Ṣadrå—at the turn of the twentieth century.1 Yet Horten’s works on this towering figure of Islamic thought, as well as his other pioneering contributions to later Islamic philosophy and theology, did not receive the scholarly attention one would have expected. This is partly due to the fact that at the dawn of the twentieth century, the story of the earlier period of Islamic philosophy had not even begun to be told. There were indeed a number of general surveys (now outdated) on the history of Islamic philosophy, but the nature and scope of many early Muslim philosophers’ teachings were still largely unknown. Horten’s books on later Islamic philosophy and theology were, therefore, eclipsed by concurrent and later studies on some of the seminal figures in early Islamic thought, such as Fåråb¥ (d.

The method isbased largely on United States experience. However,modifications of the techniques used inthe United States are suggested based on astudy of forecasting techniquesemployed in different counties. Steps in the method are:(1) Derive a rough first approximationof the future employment structure by economicactivity, (2) Make adetailed analysis of each activity, (3) Modify the first approximationsof future employment inaccordance with the activity analysis, (4)derive an occupational employmentbreakdown in each activ4 in the future period,and 5) Estimate training requirementsfor each important occupation by analyzingthe probable supply of qualifiedworkers under existing training

There will be found in these pages studies in about fifteen languages or dialects, making along with those in the other volume a total of forty-one. The linguistic distribution is as follows : Tibeto-Burman : two languages, Purik and Lower Kanauri and the Chitkhuli dialect. Lahnda : two dialects, Kagani and the Bahramgala dialect. Western Pahari : nine dialects in three groups, viz., five Koci dialects from Bashahr, spoken in Rohru, Rampur, Baghi, Siirkhuli Pargana, and Dodra Kuar ; two from Jubba], north and south ; two from Suket, Eastern Suketi and Suket Siraji. PUnjabl : two dialects spoken in Bilaspur and Nalagarh, divided into six sub-dialects. There are also notes on the secret vocabularies of the Qalandar, who are conjurers and trainers of monkeys and bears, the Qasal or butchers, and of Panjabi gamblers. The vocabulary of the first-named is fairly complete. The others are very brief, but probably the total number of secret words is small.

  • Epistemic Weakening with Future and Must: Non Veridicality, Evidentiality, and Partial Knowledge
    Epistemic weakening with future and must: non veridicality, evidentiality, and partial knowledge Anastasia Giannakidou and Alda Mari University of Chicago and Institut Jean Nicod, CNRS July 7, 2013 Abstract In this paper, we show that future morphemes in Greek and Italian have purely epistemic non-predictive readings, behaving as equivalent to English must. We call this use ‘epistemic future’. Epistemic future appears to have an evidential compo- nent: it cannot be used if the speaker knows, either via visual perception, or via a report, that the prejacent proposition p is true. This renders epistemic futures nonveridical, on a par with must (Giannakidou 1998, 1999, Giannakidou and Mari 2012a,b). The judgment with the future is epistemically weaker than an unmodal- ized assertion, and relies on partial knowledge supporting p. We show that partial knowledge is not indirect knowledge. Our analysis contrasts with von Fintel and Gillies 2010 who argue that must is ‘strong’, and further refines the classical ‘weak’ analysis of universal epistemic modals ( Kartunnen 1972, Kratzer 1981, Giannakidou 1998, 1999 and more recently Lassiter 2013). 1 Epistemic future: core data from English, Dutch, Greek and Italian The question of whether the category ‘future tense’ in natural languages is a tense or modality has received a lot of attention in linguistic semantics, and both answers have been explored (for modal accounts see Bertinetto, 1979; Enç 1996, Copley, 2002; Squartini, 2004; Kaufmann 2005; Mari, 2009,2010,to appear, Klecha to appear, Giannakidou 2012, Giannakidou and Mari 2012a,b, Broekhuis and Verkuyl to appear; for a defense of the temporal analysis see Kissine 2008).

And nowhere is that mirroring (or refractive?) function clearer than in the immense secondary literature attempting to explain or otherwise convey the voluminous teachings of this ‘Greatest Master’ (al-shaykh al-akbar), beginning with the contrasting approaches of his own close disciples and continuing down to our own day. For if virtually all Sufi writings are meant to be mirrors, Ibn ‘Arabi’s works are mirrors of a very peculiar and in some ways utterly unique sort. The novel and highly personal manner in which he integrally com- bined the contrasting approaches of earlier Islamic intellectual traditions that had focused respectively on spiritual disciplines and contemplation, intellectual and scientific inquiry, and the elaboration of scriptural and prophetic teachings - the tripartite scheme of kashf (unveiling), 'aql (intellect), naql (religious tradition) found in virtually all his later com- mentators - was never really repeated or adequately imitated by any subsequent Islamic author.

  • The Future of Greek and Italian: an Evidential Analysis
    Chicago Linguistic Society 48, April 2012 The future of Greek and Italian: an evidential analysis Anastasia Giannakidou, University of Chicago Alda Mari, Institut Jean Nicod, CNRS/ENS/EHESS 1 Main claims • The future tense/ morphemes (FUT) in Greek and Italian are epistemic modals that assess evidence at the utterance time. • The modal and the temporal interpretations of FUT depend on an evidential mechanism of indirect evidence. • The modal reading expresses epistemic uncertainty (nonveridicality). FUT is like a ‘reported’ evidential. • When only direct evidence is available at the utterance time, FUT will be interpreted temporally, i.e. forward shifted. 2 English will also has modal uses Palmer 1990, 1987: Εpistemic use of will: “It is tempting to refer to the meaning of will as probability, alongside possibility and necessity for may and must. But the word ‘probable’ does not provide a good paraphrase. A better paraphrase is again in terms of conclusion: ‘A reasonable conclusion is that...’.” (1) The French’ll be on holiday this week. (2) No doubt, you’ll remember John. But unlike must, will does not seem to be evidential! (3) John will be in his office. (4) John must be in his office (Palmer 1987: 136). 3 Greek/Italian futures: epistemic and temporal interpretation Italian (1) a. Giovanni sarà malato. (Epistemic interpretation) Giovanni FUT-be sick b. O Janis tha ine arrostos. The John FUT be.nonpast.3sg sick John must be sick. (2) Giovanni arriverà alle 5. (Temporal, forward-shifted) Giovanni will-arrive at 5 pm (see Bertinetto, 1979; Squartini, 2004 for previous description of the Italian future).Notice the use of the adverb.
