MS Tunis, Dār al-kutub al-waṭaniyya, 7116, is the only extant manuscript containing a complete copy of the Isḥāq/Ṯābit version of the Almagest. Paul Kunitzsch has underlined the close similarities between the marginal notes in the Tunis manuscript and those in Gerard of Cremona’s Latin translation of the Almagest, so that Kunitzsch has concluded that Gerard of Cremona had a manuscript close to the Tunis manuscript before him during the revision of his translation of the Almagest. A note in MS Tunis, Dār al-kutub al-waṭaniyya, 7116, points out that this manuscript was copied from a model owned by al-Arawšī, a bibliophile living in Valencia famous for the size of his library, a significant part of which was looted by al-Maʾmūn b. Ḏī l-Nūn and sent to Toledo, arguably shortly before Ṣāʿid al-Andalusī wrote his Ṭabaqāt al-umam. Based on MS Tunis, Dār al-kutub al-waṭaniyya, 7116, the present contribution explores the significance of al-Arawšī’s looted library as an important link between Umayyad Cordoba and Toledo. It also calls attention to the highly unusual paper of MS Tunis, Dār al-kutub al-waṭaniyya, 7116, made of woven fibers, maybe flax.

The reputation of the late-antique or early Islamic al-Filāḥa l-nabaṭiyya (The Nabatean Agriculture) as an esoteric forgery has recently begun to shift and its value as a source for the study of early-Islamic or late-antique Near Eastern paganism has been restored. This article contributes to a further reinterpretation of the work by elucidating its value for the history of late-antique and early Islamic science. It argues that the work distinguishes between the epistemological categories of the rational and the marvelous and critically approaches both based on a rational empiricism which it shares with contemporary disciplines such as medicine and astrology. The concepts of experience (taǧriba) and reason (qiyās) are central to al-Filāḥa l-nabaṭiyya’s epistemology, and the work relies on observation and experiments, combined with methods of deductive and analogical reasoning to obtain applied botanical and agricultural knowledge. Al-Filāḥa l-nabaṭiyya also contains competing views regarding prophecy and astrological knowledge which are illustrative of epistemological debates within Pagan late-antique scholarship.

Rasāʾil Iḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ and its summary, al-Risāla l-Ǧāmiʿa, are commonly attributed to the same authors. The strongest argument for this is the presence of references from the former to the latter. The aim of the present article is to analyze all of these references to establish their import for the theory of common authorship. When the fourteen references in the Beirut edition are compared with the oldest manuscripts, the result is that only six of these references appear in the latter, and even among these two are highly ambiguous. The only references from Rasāʾil Iḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ to al-Risāla l-Ǧāmiʿa unambiguously confirmed by the oldest manuscripts are the four references in version B of epistle 52, which is itself of dubious authenticity. Since all or most of the references outside epistle 52 are then clearly later interpolations, the conclusion is that the references in Rasāʾil Iḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ do not support the theory of common authorship.
Rasāʾil Iḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ及其摘要al-Risālal-Ǧāmiʿa通常属于同一作者。对此最有力的论据是存在从前者到后者的引用。本文的目的是分析所有这些参考文献，以确定它们对共同作者理论的重要性。当将贝鲁特版本中的14篇参考文献与最古老的手稿进行比较时，结果是这些参考文献中只有6篇出现在后者中，甚至在这两篇中也是高度模糊的。Rasāʾil I的唯一参考文献ḫwān al-Ṣafāʾto al Risāla l-Ǧāmiʿa最古老的手稿明确证实了书信52的B版本中的四个参考文献，其真实性本身令人怀疑。由于书信52之外的所有或大多数引用都是后来的插值，因此结论是Rasāʾil I中的引用ḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ不支持共同作者理论。

This study aims to reconsider the impact of the Rasāʾil Iḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ on the Rutbat al-ḥakīm (The Rank of the Sage) and the Ġāyat al-ḥakīm (The Aim of the Sage). Exclusively concerned with textual evidence taken from the three works and making extensive use of the programme Qawl, it shows that the way Maslama b. Qāsim al-Qurṭubī refers to the Iḫwānian corpus in the Rutba reveals a far less familiarity with that work than at the time he writes the Ġāya. This difference of treatment suggests that, contrary to what was previously assumed, Maslama had no access to the text of the Rasāʾil before he started writing his ultimate treatise.

“The origin and early development of philosophy in tenth-century al-Andalus: the impact of ill-defined materials and channels of transmission” (hereafter, PhilAnd) is an Advanced Grant ERC project funded by the European Research Council and currently being conducted at UCLouvain and the Warburg Institute (University of London).1 PhilAnd aims to provide new insights into an important chapter in the history of Islamic speculative thinking. It is concerned with the time and the form under which philosophy – in the sense of a rational, scientific and comprehensive system to approach the reality of the world around us – appeared for the first time in al-Andalus, and with the role played by this formative stage in the history of philosophy as later developed in the Iberian Peninsula among the three monotheistic communities. PhilAnd pursues three main objectives, namely: (1) to determine whether the emergence of philosophy in al-Andalus did not significantly predate the time ordinarily acknowledged in modern scholarship; (2) to establish whether the impact of this early phase on later developments of rational thinking in al-Andalus was not considerably greater than has usually been assumed thus far; (3) to provide evidence in order to assess, on a scientific basis, the originality of the first Andalusī philosophers with respect to their predecessors in the Orient. The project stands at the crossroads of several major lines of enquiry in modern scholarship: the overall history of Arabic sciences in al-Andalus, the libraries and cultural centres of al-Andalus, the interaction of politics, religion and science in the Peninsula, the common threads of Islamic and Jewish philosophy and mysticism in and outside the Peninsula, Greek-Arabic philosophy across the Mediterranean or more specifically in the context of Shīʿism and Ismāʿīlism, Arabic into Latin and the legacy of Arabic sciences in medieval Europe, the reception of Jewish literature in the Latin Middle Ages.
