WiSe 17/18: The Intellectual World of Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406)

Islam Dayeh

Information for students

This course is designed as an advanced seminar. "Undergraduate course" is simply the official FU-translation of "Grundkurs", i. e. "basic course"!

Comments

The course is an introduction to early modern Islamic intellectual history through the life and times of the prominent historian, judge, theologian and politician Ibn Khaldun. Born in Tunis, Ibn Khaldun’s intellectual and tumultuous political career included long stays and appointments in Fes, Granada and Cairo, where he died. This unique career and his impressive intellectual formation enabled him to develop and advance theories that are still significant today. Through close readings of his autobiography and his extraordinary work al-Muqaddima, we will explore the intellectual world of the fourteenth and fifteenth century Islamic West and East, and we will focus in particular on Ibn Khaldun’s philosophy of history, language theories and epistemology. close
