Routledge Metaphysique d'Ibn Gabirol et de la tradition - 589

Explore the profound philosophical connections between Ibn Gabirol and Platonic thought in this specialized volume from Routledge. Fernand Brunner, a leading specialist on the 11th-century Jewish philosopher and poet, examines the Fons vitae, a treatise known through its Latin translation. This work provides a deep look into how this specific version of Platonism maintains coherence and how it influenced scholastic philosophy in later centuries. Brunner investigates systematic Platonic solutions to fundamental questions, including the relationship between matter and form, as well as the connection between God and the world. This collection is an essential resource for scholars of ancient history, philosophy, and medieval studies. It includes several previously unpublished papers, offering new perspectives on the intellectual landscape of 11th-century Spain and the broader history of Platonic traditions.
