The
philosophical discipline of Ibn-e Sina (Avicenna) has deeply influenced the
later Islamic philosophical thinking and even those of the medieval Europe. He
brought new ideas to Peripatetic philosophy and shed light on the ambiguous
points of Aristotle’s views.He combined the platonic and Neo-platonic to create
a new philosophical system which remained premature due to his early death.
The
meeting “Describing Avicenna’s Ideas” will be held on August 23 at 5:30 to 7:30
p.m.
