GILSON AND RÉMI BRAGUE ON MEDIEVAL ARABIC PHILOSOPHY

Journal Title: Studia Gilsoniana - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue

Abstract

Given contemporary interest in Islam, compelled by the astounding violence perpetrated in its name, the author considers what two historians of philosophy, Étienne Gilson and Rémi Brague, writing a generation apart, have to say about medieval Arabic philosophy and the relevance of its study to our own day.
