Sarah Stroumsa’s 2009 Maimonides in his World spurred much reconsideration of Almohad influence on medieval Jewish thought. Many now accept that Almohad ideology was at least one crucible in which Moses Maimonides’s thought was forged. This paper broadens exploration of Almohad influences to include Maimonides’s understudied contemporary Joseph ben Judah Ibn ʿAqnīn. It focuses on the jurisprudential theories propounded by these two thinkers in order to evaluate the extent to which their views can be considered distinctively Almohad. Assessment of medieval Jewish legal theory in light of earlier Andalusian and developing Almohad thought allows for a fine-grained level of analysis, pinpointing when Jews endorsed Almohad ideas and when they ratified claims of other schools of Islamic law. In the end, at least on questions of jurisprudence, Maimonides and Ibn ʿAqnīn must be understood within several overlapping and mutually reinforcing traditions, namely, Andalusian Rabbanism, reformed Mālikism, and early Almohadism.
萨拉-斯特罗姆萨(Sarah Stroumsa)2009 年出版的《迈蒙尼德在他的世界中》一书促使人们重新思考阿尔摩哈德对中世纪犹太思想的影响。现在,许多人认为阿尔摩哈德思想至少是摩西-迈蒙尼德思想的熔炉。本文扩大了对阿尔摩哈德影响的探索,将迈蒙尼德未被充分研究的同时代人约瑟夫-本-犹大-伊本-阿克宁(Joseph ben Judah Ibn ʿAqnīn)也包括在内。该书侧重于这两位思想家提出的法学理论,以评估他们的观点在多大程度上可被视为具有独特的阿尔摩哈德风格。根据早期安达卢西亚思想和发展中的阿尔摩哈德思想对中世纪犹太法律理论进行评估,可以进行精细的分析,确定犹太人何时认可阿尔摩哈德思想,何时认可其他伊斯兰法学派的主张。最后,至少在法理学问题上,迈蒙尼德和伊本-阿克宁必须在几个相互重叠、相互促进的传统中加以理解,即安达卢西亚拉班主义、改革后的毛利克主义和早期的阿尔摩哈德主义。

The Longer Theology of Aristotle (LThA) is an interpolated version of the Theology of Aristotle (the latter being an Arabic adaptation of Plotinus’ Enneads IV–VI). LThA is preserved mainly in Judeo-Arabic manuscripts and a sixteenth-century Latin translation. Its importance lies in the fact that some non-Plotinian interpolations contained therein may be witnesses to lost Arabic philosophical sources (such as “Ibn Ḥasdāy’s Neoplatonist” postulated by Stern). The present study offers a critical edition and translation of LThA, Book X.14–17a. This passage contains several significant non-Plotinian interpolations. In particular, it exhibits a unique “Logos theology,” i.e., the idea that the divine “Logos” or “Word” (in Arabic: al-Kalima) constitutes an intermediary hypostasis between the Creator and His first creation, the Intellect. LThA shares this Logos theology with several Ismāʿīlī thinkers, notably the tenth-century Ismāʿīlī theologian Abū Yaʿqūb al-Sijistānī; in fact, the passage edited and translated herein (as well as the immediately preceding section: LThA, X.6–13) contains nearly-verbatim parallels to al-Sijistānī’s Kitāb al-Maqālīd. These parallels are presented in the Appendix.

Ibn Sīnā’s al-Qānūn fī l-ṭibb, especially its first book, al-Kulliyyāt, elicited dozens of commentaries from the 6th/12th century through the 8th/14th century. Among them, Quṭb al-Dīn al-Shīrāzī’s commentary, entitled al-Tuḥfa al-saʿdiyya, is distinguished in that in it he analyzed and synthesized almost all commentaries written before his death in 710/1311. This article shows how Shīrāzī bridged some of the political boundaries that divided the Islamic world after the Mongol invasion to gather his predecessors’ commentaries, as well as other sources for composing al-Tuḥfa al-saʿdiyya. Shīrāzī’s extensive travels and proximity to patronage allowed him to acquire, and later disseminate, medical and scientific texts that were otherwise unavailable in Anatolia and the eastern territories of the Islamic world.

Abstract This article discusses the literary representation of religious leadership in the Siyar al-bīʿa al-muqaddasa , also known as “History of the Patriarchs of Alexandria”. It suggests reading accounts on early Muslim rule within the frameworks of Islamicate literature from the Abbasid and the Fatimid periods, when the collection was created, also considering successive layers of redaction. This approach contrasts with a more conventional way of reading such texts as historical sources on Christian-Muslim relations and as witnesses of the early Islamic period. By comparing stories of patriarchs and rulers with stories about qadis and rulers, the article highlights the importance of framing early Islamicate Christian sources in relation to a broader cultural context and historical developments, without exaggerating their early dating. Finally, it proposes that there is historical meaning to be found in the display of linguistic and narrative anachronisms.

Abstract Tracing the possible ways in which the thought of Ibn Rushd (Averroes, d. 595/1198) was transmitted within Muslim contexts can be such a “frustrating” and “depressing” task that it may have contributed to the near absence of his name in the lists of influential philosophers of Islam in the eastern part of the Islamic world. This article, through the consultation of original texts and manuscripts sets out to throw some light on this seeming absence. It offers a revision of Henry Corbin’s famous assertion about Ibn Rushd’s fate in the East by addressing the various receptions of Ibn Rushd’s texts in North Africa, Egypt, and the Levant, examining available manuscript catalogs of Ibn Rushd’s writings in Iran, and analyzing an important work by ʿAbd al-Razzāq al-Lāhījī (d. 1072/1661–1662), one of the most famous philosophers of the 17th century.
追踪伊本·鲁士德(Averroes, d. 595/1198)思想在穆斯林背景下传播的可能方式可能是一项“令人沮丧”和“令人沮丧”的任务,这可能是导致他的名字几乎没有出现在伊斯兰世界东部有影响力的伊斯兰哲学家名单中的原因。这篇文章,通过对原始文本和手稿的咨询,开始对这种表面上的缺失进行一些阐明。它提供了亨利·科尔宾关于伊本·鲁世德在东方命运的著名断言的修订,通过解决伊本·鲁世德在北非、埃及和黎凡特的文本的各种接受,检查伊本·鲁世德在伊朗的著作的现有手稿目录,并分析了17世纪最著名的哲学家之一阿卜杜拉al-Razzāq al-Lāhījī(1072/1661-1662)的重要著作。

Eugen Mittwoch (1876–1942) was one of the most prominent representatives of German Orientalism during the first decades of the twentieth century. Trained as an Arabist and Semitist, Mittwoch was at the same time a specialist of Ethiopian studies, and he was part of the circle of Carl Heinrich Becker (1876–1933) who initiated a new direction for Islamic studies in Orientalism. At the same time, Mittwoch was also engaged in the study of the Geniza and he worked on topics relevant to the Science of Judaism (“Wissenschaft des Judentums”). Mittwoch’s academic career ended abruptly when he was dismissed from his professorial position at the end of 1935 and eventually forced into exile in 1938. As a result, only portions of his professional and personal Nachlass have come to us. The present study provides a first overview of the available sources for a reconstruction of his biography and it discusses in some depth those that inform us of the fate of his library, in 1939, when his family joined him in London, as well as after his death in 1942.
欧根·米特沃奇(1876-1942)是二十世纪前几十年德国东方主义最杰出的代表人物之一。作为阿拉伯主义者和犹太主义者,Mittwoch同时也是埃塞俄比亚研究的专家,他是卡尔·海因里希·贝克尔(1876-1933)圈子的一员,他开创了东方主义中伊斯兰研究的新方向。与此同时,Mittwoch也在从事《圣经》的研究,并致力于与犹太教科学相关的课题(“Wissenschaft des Judentums”)。1935年底,米特沃奇被解除教授职务,并于1938年被迫流亡,他的学术生涯戛然结束。因此,他的专业和个人的Nachlass只有一部分出现在我们面前。本研究首先概述了重建他的传记的可用资料,并深入讨论了那些告诉我们他的图书馆命运的资料,1939年,当他的家人来到伦敦,以及1942年他去世后。

Muḥammad b. Ibrāhīm al-Nuʿmānī, al-Kātib, (d. before 360/971) is a venerable Imāmī traditionist for his celebrated work the Kitāb al-ghayba—a compilation of nearly 445 traditions to demonstrate the occultation of the twelfth Imam and his parousia in the last days of history. Although some monographical studies have been done on this author and his work, the biographical questions about the Imāmī community that he came from, the first places from where he started his Ḥadīth study, and the connection between his being kātib by profession and his learning traditions remained unanswered. The present article is an endeavor to present a more complete biography of al-Nuʿmānī. It consists of an examination of the socioreligious milieu of his hometown al-Nuʿmāniyya, the different places that he visited to his teachers, some fragmentary information about his grandson Abū l-Qāsim al-Maghribī, his stay in Aleppo, his works and pupils, and a more plausible date of his death in Aleppo.
