About the author

Henry Corbin

102 books234 followers
Henry Corbin was a philosopher, theologian and professor of Islamic Studies at the Sorbonne in Paris, France. As a boy he revealed the profound sensitivity to music so evident in his work. Although he was Protestant by birth, he was educated in the Catholic tradition and at the age of 19 received a certificate in Scholastic philosophy from the Catholic Institute of Paris. Three years later he took his "licence de philosophie" under the great Thomist Étienne Gilson. In 1928 he encountered the formidable Louis Massignon, director of Islamic studies at the Sorbonne, and it was he who introduced Corbin to the writings of Suhrawardi, the 12th century Persian mystic and philosopher whose work was to profoundly affect the course of Corbin’s life. The stage was then set for a personal drama that has deep significance for understanding those cultures whose roots lie in both ancient Greece and in the prophetic religions of the Near East reaching all the way back to Zoroaster. Years later Corbin said “through my meeting with Suhrawardi, my spiritual destiny for the passage through this world was sealed. Platonism, expressed in terms of the Zoroastrian angelology of ancient Persia, illuminated the path that I was seeking.”
Corbin is responsible for redirecting the study of Islamic philosophy as a whole. In his Histoire de la philosophie islamique (1964), he disproved the common view that philosophy among the Muslims came to an end after Ibn Rushd, demonstrating rather that a lively philosophical activity persisted in the eastern Muslim world – especially Iran – and continues to our own day.

ملا صدرا يکی از مشاهير فلسفه‌ی ايران است. فلسفه‌ی او از اسلام متأثر است.
در اين کتاب بيشتر به مقايسه و ارتباط فلسفه‌ی ملاصدرا با فلاسفه و افکار بزرگان ديگر پرداخته شده است و شرايط زمان صفويان و اوضاع نابسامان اين فيلسوف آورده شده.
نسخه‌ای از آن که در سال 1359 از طرف سازمان انتشارات جاويدان منتشر شده است، سال‌ها پيش مطالعه کرده‌ام.

the book ...more I can say this is a really good book for knowing a little of everything in one main topic!
the book is about molasadra and his personal and scientific life but you can find a little describe of everything that you need know them for keeping this book...

کتاب ملاصدرا اثر هانری کوربن یکی از معدود کتاب هایی هست که با ترجه خاص مترجم بزرگ معاصر آقای منصوری می تونه تاثیری شگرف در آشنایی ما با ملاصدرا داشته باشه!
موضوع اصلی کتاب ملاصدراست و زندگی علمی و بعضا شخصی او ولی در بین کتاب نویسنده در یک سری جاها گریز مناسبی به یک سری وقایع تاریخی و یا طرز تفکرهای خاص اون زمان می زنه و باعث می شه تا خواننده بتونه بهتر و دقیق تر جو فکری زمان ملاصدرا و تاثیر اون روی افکار این دانشمند بزرگ رو شبیه سازی کنه!
که این مقوله به عقیده من یکی از مهم ترین و در عین حال ظریف ترین نکات کتاب خوانی به ویژه از نوع تاریخی و فلسفی هست
چون یه جورایی می تونیم بگیم تفکری که همه ما آدم ها داریم نسبیه!
نسبت به زمان و مکان تغییر پیدا می کنه
هنوز به معنای مطلق نرسیدیم پس درک هرچه بیشتر و بهتر شرایط در صحیح خوانی هم چین کتابی کمکی شایان توجهی می کنه که خوشبختانه هانری کوربن در این مسیر قدم های بزرگی رو در این کتاب برداشته (less) "
