| Zusammenfassung: | The Epistles of the Brethren of Purity' is an encyclopedic compendium, probably composed in tenth-century Iraq by a society of adepts with Platonic, Pythagorean, and Shi'i tendencies. Its 52 sections ('epistles') are divided into four parts (Mathematics, Natural Philosophy, Sciences of the Soul and Intellect, and Theology). The current volume provides an edition, translation, and notes to Epistle 3 ('On Astronomia'), which forms one of the 14 sections on Mathematics. The content is a mixture of elementary astronomy and astrology, but it is not a beginner's textbook. Rather, the purpose is to use examples from those disciplines to provide spiritual, moral, and soteriological guidance. Thus the Epistle uses the argument from design to show the necessity for a Creator who made the harmonious universe; this wondrous design is then employed by the authors as a model, providing humans with a paradigm for proper ethical, political, and even economic conduct; and the study of Astronomia helps the soul achieve ultimate happiness as it seeks to throw off the shackles of this mundane world and oppressive body in favour of the purity of the celestial realm.0Although by no means typical of Islamic astronomical literature, Epistle 3 of the Brethren of Purity gives a window into a fascinating and intriguing group operating during the early period of Islam who sought to continue and adopt one of the esoteric strands of Hellenistic philosophy within an Islamic context, meshing astronomy, astrology, Platonic-Pythagorean philosophy, Quranic and Biblical quotations, and anecdotes from the lives of the Abrahamic prophets |

Its 52 sections ('epistles') are divided into four parts (Mathematics, Natural Philosophy, Sciences of the Soul and Intellect, and Theology). The current volume provides an edition, translation, and notes to Epistle 3 ('On Astronomia'), which forms one of the 14 sections on Mathematics. The content is a mixture of elementary astronomy and astrology, but it is not a beginner's textbook.

fascinating and intriguing group operating during the early period of Islam who sought to continue and adopt one of the esoteric strands of Hellenistic philosophy within an Islamic context, meshing

Its 52 sections ('epistles') are divided into four parts (Mathematics, Natural Philosophy, Sciences of the Soul and Intellect, and Theology). The current volume provides an edition, translation, and notes to Epistle 3 ('On Astronomia'), which forms one of the 14 sections on Mathematics. The content is a mixture of elementary astronomy and astrology, but it is not a beginner's textbook. Rather, the purpose is to use examples from those disciplines to provide spiritual, moral, and soteriological guidance. Thus the Epistle uses the argument from design to show the necessity for a Creator who made the harmonious universe; this wondrous design is then employed by the authors as a model, providing humans with a paradigm for proper ethical, political, and even economic conduct; and the study of Astronomia helps the soul achieve ultimate happiness as it seeks to throw off the shackles of this mundane world and oppressive body in favour of the purity of the celestial realm.0Although by no means typical of Islamic astronomical literature, Epistle 3 of the Brethren of Purity gives a window into a fascinating and intriguing group operating during the early period of Islam who sought to continue and adopt one of the esoteric strands of Hellenistic philosophy within an Islamic context, meshing astronomy, astrology, Platonic-Pythagorean philosophy, Quranic and Biblical quotations, and anecdotes from the lives of the Abrahamic prophets Text englisch und arabisch Teilweise in arabischer Schrift Iḫwān aṣ-Ṣafāʾ (DE-588)2112737-2 gnd rswk-swf Iḫwān aṣ-Ṣafāʾ ʾRasāʾil Iḫwān aṣ-ṣafāʾ (DE-588)4241965-7 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 970 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1050 gnd rswk-swf Arithmetik (DE-588)4002919-0 gnd rswk-swf Islamische Philosophie (DE-588)4137531-2 gnd rswk-swf Logik (DE-588)4036202-4 gnd rswk-swf Naturwissenschaften (DE-588)4041421-8 gnd rswk-swf Magie (DE-588)4036966-3 gnd rswk-swf Geometrie (DE-588)4020236-7 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4135952-5 Quelle gnd-content Naturwissenschaften (DE-588)4041421-8 s Islamische Philosophie (DE-588)4137531-2 s Geschichte 970 z 1\p DE-604 Logik (DE-588)4036202-4 s Geschichte 1050 z 2\p DE-604 Arithmetik (DE-588)4002919-0 s Geometrie (DE-588)4020236-7 s Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 s 3\p DE-604 Iḫwān aṣ-Ṣafāʾ (DE-588)2112737-2 b Magie (DE-588)4036966-3 s 4\p DE-604 Iḫwān aṣ-Ṣafāʾ ʾRasāʾil Iḫwān aṣ-ṣafāʾ (DE-588)4241965-7 u 5\p DE-604 880-01 Ragep, F.
