  • Philosophy As a Path to Happiness
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Helsingin yliopiston digitaalinen arkisto Philosophy as a Path to Happiness Attainment of Happiness in Arabic Peripatetic and Ismaili Philosophy Janne Mattila ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki in auditorium XII, University main building, on the 13th of June, 2011 at 12 o’clock. ISBN 978-952-92-9077-2 (paperback) ISBN 978-952-10-7001-3 (PDF) http://ethesis.helsinki.fi/ Helsinki University Print Helsinki 2011 2 Abstract The aim of this study is to explore the idea of philosophy as a path to happiness in medieval Arabic philosophy. The starting point is in comparison of two distinct currents within Arabic philosophy between the 10th and early 11th centuries, Peripatetic philosophy, represented by al-Fārābī and Ibn Sīnā, and Ismaili philosophy represented by al-Kirmānī and the Brethren of Purity. These two distinct groups of sources initially offer two contrasting views about philosophy. The attitude of the Peripatetic philosophers is rationalistic and secular in spirit, whereas for the Ismailis philosophy represents the esoteric truth behind revelation. Still, the two currents of thought converge in their view that the ultimate purpose of philosophy lies in its ability to lead man towards happiness. Moreover, they share a common concept of happiness as a contemplative ideal of human perfection, merged together with the Neoplatonic goal of the soul’s reascent to the spiritual world. Finally, for both happiness refers primarily to an otherworldly state thereby becoming a philosophical interpretation of the Quranic accounts of the afterlife.

  • Michel Fattal, Du Logos De Plotin Au Logos De Saint Jean
    MICHEL FATTAL, DU LOGOS DE PLOTIN AU LOGOS DE SAINT JEAN. VERS LA SOLUTION D’un PROBLÈME MÉTAPHYSIQUE? PARIS, LES ÉDITIONS DU CERF, 2016, 150 PP., ISBN 9782204109673. Reviewed by Pedro Paulo A. Funari University of Campinas – Unicamp Michel Fattal is a well-known philosopher, a specialist on logos from the Pre-Socratics to the mediaeval period, passing through Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics and beyond. He puts together classical philosophy and Christian epistemology in innovative ways, as is the case in his new volume on Logos in Plotinus and in Saint John. The book gathers a series of lectures, starting with a keynote speech, or lectio magistralis, at Rome in April 2011, followed by several others. Fattal lectured on a related topic in Brasília, 2016, at a Archai Unesco Chair meeting. Fattal started to explore Logos in ancient Greek taught as early as 1977 and continued doing so in his PhD dissertation (1980) and Pedro Paulo A. Funari Habilitation (2001), publishing overall 19 books and dozens of papers and chapters. This volume is the 17th in a series on the Logos, and it deals with the relational logos in both Plotinus and Saint John, particularly the relationship of the sensible and possible to understand, earth and heaven, humans and God. Logos as a philosophical concept implies putting together (function rassemblante et unifiante). Legein derives from the root *leg-, meaning putting together and choosing. Logos thus means relating, and so speaking, a discourse as composition (sunthesis). Parmenides considers the Logos as the critical reason, capable of splitting up being and non-being, what is true and what is false, krinai logo, to judge or split up by reason (Parmenides B7, 5D-K).

    H-France Review Volume 8 (2008) Page 210 H-France Review Vol. 8 (March 2008), No. 52 Roland J. Teske, Studies in the Philosophy of William of Auvergne, Bishop of Paris (1228-1249). Milwaukee: Marquette University Press, 2006. 274 pp. Table, introduction, notes, bibliography, and indexes. $30.00 U.S. (pb). ISBN 0-87462-674-9. Review by Steven P. Marrone, Tufts University. William of Auvergne, master of theology at the University of Paris and bishop of that city from 1228 until his death in 1249, was one of the most prominent Latin theologians of his day, recognized for his intellectual import throughout much of the rest of the thirteenth century. Yet the modern historiography of scholastic thought has paid him relatively little attention. The only book devoted to the entirety of his thinking, a three-volume study by Amato Masnovo, appeared well over half a century ago.[1] With the new work under review here, gathering together thirteen essays on aspects of William’s philosophy originally published between 1990 and 2003, Roland Teske goes a long way towards redressing the balance. In the name of full disclosure, I should admit that as an author of two books in which William’s speculative achievements play a major role, I cannot be considered an impartial witness to Teske’s effort.[2] All the same, I believe that anyone who reads Teske’s book will come away convinced that William deserves just the sort of probing and sustained examination Teske has given him. For the sake of our accurate appreciation of the historical trajectory of thirteenth-century scholasticism, I hope the book has many readers.

' -FOUR- The Philosopher-Prophet in Avicenna~s Political Philosophy James W. Morris With time, human beings tend to take miracles for granted. Perhaps the most lasting and public of all miracles, those to which Islamic philosophers devoted so much of their reflections, were the political achievements of the prophets: how otherwise obscure figures like Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad came to shape the thoughts and actions of so much of civilized humanity. Within the high culture of Islamic civilization, the thought and writings of an itinerant Persian doctor and court administrator we know as Avicenna (370/980~28/1037) came to play a similarly central role: for almost a millenium, each of the tra­ ditions of Islamic thought claiming a wider, universal human validity has appealed either directly to his works or to logical and metaphysical disciplines whose Islamic forms were directly grounded in them. This study considers some of the central philosophic under­ pinnings of that achievement.

  • Why God Became Man; on Grace; on Faith
    00-front 09/02/2011 4:23 PM Page i Introduction | i william of auvergne Selected Spiritual Writings: Why God Became Man; On Grace; On Faith This volume contains translations of three of William of Auvergne’s shorter more spiritual works: Cur Deus homo (Why God Became Man), De gratia (On Grace), and De fide (On Faith). Each work touches upon the understanding of the relation between nature and grace, the moral and theological virtues, and of the need for our redemption by Christ and its character. The introduction situates the treatises within William’s many works and within the thought of the early thirteenth century. In the first treatise William sets forth the reasons for the incarnation of the Word. In it he is deeply influenced by Anselm of Canterbury’s emphasis on the need for satisfaction to be made to God for human sin, a satisfaction that could only adequately be made by someone both divine and human. While Anselm claimed to provide necessary reason of the incarnation, William admits that God could have redeemed the world in another way. In the second William argues for the need of grace in order for human beings to return to God and aims to refute the position of the Pelagian heretics as he understood it. In the third treatise, William defines faith and establishes belief in God as the foundation of faith – something, he argues, that cannot be grasped by the human intellect alone. roland j. teske, sj, has an MA in classical languages and ecclesiastical degrees in philosophy and theology from Saint Louis University, as well as a PhD in philosophy from the University of Toronto.
