The original Annotated Bibliography on Ibn Sina -- covering 1970 to 1989 -- was published in 1991 by Leuven University Press, and the First Supplement -- covering 1990 to 1994 -- was published in 1999 by the Fédération Internationale des Instituts d'Études médiévales. This Second Supplement covers fifteen years of research on Ibn Sina (1995 to 2009) and deals with publications that appeared not only in the West, but also elsewhere in the world. This Second Supplement opens with a detailed presentation of new editions and/or translations (as well as of reprints of older ones) of Ibn Sıˉnaˉ's major and minor works and surveys books and papers related to Ibn Sina's life and works. It extensively deals with studies analyzing and discussing aspects of Ibn Sina's thought in its different aspects: logic, noetics, linguistics, aesthetics, psychology, politics, ethics, metaphysics, mysticism, natural sciences, astronomy, mathematics, music, and medicine. This bibliography not only annotates or summarizes each single publication, written in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, or in Arabic or Persian, but it also identifies each publication's most innovative ideas and assesses its specific contributions in a brief but clear and succinct way. Moreover, it offers references to publications in many other languages, including Turkish, Russian, Uzbek, and Japanese, among others and provides a clear, concise, and comprehensive work-instrument for all future research on Ibn Sina.

This volume focuses on Ibn Sina - the Avicenna of the Latin West - and the enormous impact of his philosophy in both the Islamic and Christian worlds. Jules Janssens opens with a new introductory article, surveying the position of work in the field. The next studies look at Ibn Sina's work and thought, inspired by Alexandrian Neoplatonism on the one hand, and the Qur'an on the other, notably his views on the relationship between God and the world, within the context of Islam. There follow explorations of Ibn Sina's influence on later philosophers, first within the Islamic world and with particular reference to al-Ghazzali, but also, once translated into Latin, in the scholastic world of the West, on figures such as Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, and above all Henry of Ghent.

ISBN: 1317378598

This book, first published in 1958, examines the life and works of Avicenna, one of the most provocative figures in the history of thought in the East. It shows him in the right historical perspective, as the product of the impact of Greek thought on Islamic teachings against the background of the Persian Renaissance in the tenth century. His attitude can be of guidance to those in the East who are meeting the challenge of Western civilization; and to those in the West who have yet to find a basis on which to harmonize scientific with spiritual values.
