Metaphors Between Hermeneutics and Deconstruction: A Textual Analysis of Avicenna’s the Recital of the Bird
Journal Title: Eskiyeni - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 30
Abstract
The Recital of The Bird is one of the allegorical treatises of Muslim philosopher Avicenna (also known Ibn Sīnā). As much as this short epistle is vital to unravel Avicenna’s ontological hierarchy between the God and the universe and his cosmological view, it has a great influence on many Islamic philosophers and scholars. Moreover, with the other two spectacular recitals, Hayy ibn Yaqzan and Salaman and Absal, the Recital of the Bird constitutes the core figures and ideas of later philosopher Ibn Tufayl’s philosophical novel, Hayy ibn Yaqzan.
