Papers collected on his 900th Anniversary. Vol. 2","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAl-Ghazālī (d. 505\/1111) is one of the most influential thinkers of Islam. There is hardly a genre of Islamic literature where he is not regarded as a major authority. Islamic Law, Sufism, ethics, philosophy, and theology are all deeply shaped by him. Yet in the past thirty years, the field of Ghazālī-studies has been shaken by the realization that Avicenna (Ibn Sīnā, d. 428\/1037) and other philosophers had a strong influence on him. Now, after the 900th anniversary at his death, the field emerges stronger than ever. This second volume of Islam and Rationality: The Impact of al-Ghazālī brings together twelve leading experts on al-Ghazālī who write about his thought and the impact it had on later Muslim thinkers.  Contributors are: Anna Ayşe Akasoy, Ahmed El Shamsy, Kenneth Garden, Frank Griffel, Jules Janssens, Damien Janos, Taneli Kukkonen, Stephen Ogden, M. Sait Özervarlı, Martin Riexinger, Ulrich Rudolph, and Ayman Shihadeh.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents  \tPreface \tNotes on Contributors \tKeys and Conventions  Part I Al-Ghazālī’s Works and His Thought  1 \tAl-Ghazālī on Error \t\tTaneli Kukkonen  2\tAl-Ghazālī’s Concept of Philosophy  \t\tUlrich Rudolph  3\t Problems in al-Ghazālī’s Perfect World: Objections and Counter-Objections to His Best \t Possible World Thesis \t\tStephen Ogden  4 \tAl-Ghazālī’s Teleology and the Galenic Tradition \tReading The Wisdom in God’s Creations (al-Ḥikma fī makhlūqāt Allah) \t\tAhmed El Shamsy  5 \tAl-Ghazālī and Kalām: The Conundrum of His Body-Soul Dualism \t\tAyman Shihadeh  6 \tAl-Ghazali's Veils Section: Comparative Religion before Religionswissenschaft? \t\tAnna Ayṣe Akasoy  7\tIs There An Autograph of al-Ghazālī in MS Yale, Landberg 318? \t\tFrank Griffel  Part II Al-Ghazālī’s Influence  8 \tIntuition, Intellection, and Mystical Knowledge: Delineating Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī’s  \tCognitive Theories \t\tDamien Janos  9 \tFakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī’s Use of al-Ghazālī’s Mishkāt in His Commentary on the  \tLight Verse (Q 24:35) \t\tJules Janssens  10 \tOttoman Perceptions of al-Ghazālī’s Works and Discussions on His Historical Role  \tin the Late Ottoman Period \t\tM.
