by Syed Nomanul Haq, Names Natures And Things Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download Names Natures And Things book, Jabir ibn Hayyan, for a long time the reigning alchemical authority both in Islam and the Latin West, has exercised numerous generations of scholars. To be sure, it is not only the vexed question of the historical authorship and dating of the grand corpus Jabirianum which poses a serious scholarly challenge; equally challenging is the task of unraveling all those obscure and tantalizing discourses which it contains. This book, which marks the first full-scale study of Jabir ever to be published in the English language, takes up both challenges. The author begins by critically reexamining the historical foundations of the prevalent view that the Jabirian corpus is the work not of an 8th-century individual, but that of several generations of Shi'i authors belonging to the following century and later. Tentatively concluding that this view is problematic, the author, therefore, infers that its methodological implications are also problematic. Thus, developing its own methodological matrix, the book takes up the second challenge, namely that of a substantive analysis and explication of a Jabirian discourse, the Book of Stones. Here explicating Jabir's notions of substance and qualities, analyzing his ontological theory of language and unraveling the metaphysics of his Science of Balance, the author reconstructs the doctrinal context of the Stones and expounds its central theme. He then presents an authoritative critical edition of a substantial selection of the text of the Stones, based on all available manuscripts. This critical edition has been translated in its entirety and is provided with exhaustive commentaries and textual notes -- another pioneering feature of this book: for this is the first English translation of a Jabirian text to emerge in print after a whole century. An outstanding contribution is that it announces and presents an exciting textual discovery: the author has found in the Stones a hitherto unknown Arabic translation of part of Aristotle's Categories. Given that we have so far known of only one other, and possibly later, classical Arabic translation of the Greek text, Haq's discovery gives this book an historical importance.

Download book, لم تكن قد بلغت التاسعة من عمرها حين توفيت والدتها. أما والدها فقد توفي قبلها بسنوات، مخلفًا عائلته الصغيرة تعيش الفاقة والحرمان. وكان يجب على الأرملة الوحيدة أن تبحث عن عمل. لم يكن بإمكانها أن ترفض عرض جيرانها اليهود الأغنياء بالعمل عندهم كمدبرة منزل، فهم سيوفرون لها المسكن والمأكل، ويتكفلون برعاية ابنتها الصغيرة، حتى تواصل تعليمها وتنشأ في ظروف مناسبة. ولم يكن اختلاف الديانة ليغير في الأمر شيئًا. طوال سنوات من التجاور، نشأت علاقة فريدة من نوعها بين العائلتين، ما جعلهما موضع سخرية من البعض، وحسد من البعض الآخر. نشأت ريما بين أحضان عائلة جاكوب اليهودية وهم يعتبرونها فردًا منهم. فقد كانت بهجة البيت الذي يقيم فيه الأبوان المتقدمان في السن وابنهما جاكوب، وروحه النابضة بالحياة، بعد أن تزوجت ابنتهما الكبرى وسافرت مع زوجها إلى لبنان. وكان جاكوب أكثرهم تعلقًا بها وحبًا لها. كان شابًا في الثانية والعشرين من عمره حين دخلت ريما ذات السنوات الخمس حياته. فصار يقضي جل أوقاته معها. يلاعبها ويداعبها، يقرأ عليها القصص والحكايات، ويستمتع بانفعالاتها البريئة وضحكاتها العفوية، يشتري لها الألعاب والهدايا، ويستغل أوقات العطل للسفر معها... وكانت والدتها تطمئن عليها بين يديه --
by Gideon Bohak, Continuity And Innovation In The Magical Tradition Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download Continuity And Innovation In The Magical Tradition book, This volume brings together thirteen studies by as many experts in the study of one or more ancient or medieval magical traditions, from ancient Mesopotamia and Pharaonic and Greco-Roman Egypt to the Greek world, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It lays special emphasis on the recurrence of similar phenomena in magical texts as far apart as the Akkadian cuneiform tablets and an Arabic manuscript bought in Egypt in the late-twentieth century. Such similarities demonstrate to what extent many different cultures share a “magical logic” which is strikingly identical, and in particular they show the recurrence of certain phenomena when magical practices are transmitted in written form and often preserve, adopt and adapt much older textual units.

by Jens Hoyrup, In Measure Number And Weight Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download In Measure Number And Weight book, Jens Hoyrup, recognized as the leading authority in social studies of pre-modern mathematics, here provides a social study of the changing mode of mathematical thought through history. His "anthropology" of mathematics is a unique approach to its history, in which he examines its pursuit and development as conditioned by the wider social and cultural context. Hoyrup moves from comparing features of Sumero-Babylonian, Mesopotamian, Ancient Greek, and Latin Medieval mathematics, to examining the character of Islamic practitioners of mathematics. He also looks at the impact of ideologies and philosophy on mathematics from Latin High Middle ages through the late Renaissance. Finally, he examines modern and contemporary mathematics, drawing out recurring themes in mathematical knowledge.
by Gillian Lathey, The Role Of Translators In Children S Literature Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download The Role Of Translators In Children S Literature book, This book offers a historical analysis of key classical translated works for children, such as writings by Hans Christian Andersen and Grimms’ tales. Translations dominate the earliest history of texts written for children in English, and stories translated from other languages have continued to shape its course to the present day. Lathey traces the role of the translator and the impact of translations on the history of English-language children’s literature from the ninth century onwards. Discussions of popular texts in each era reveal fluctuations in the reception of translated children’s texts, as well as instances of cultural mediation by translators and editors. Abridgement, adaptation, and alteration by translators have often been viewed in a negative light, yet a closer examination of historical translators’ prefaces reveals a far more varied picture than that of faceless conduits or wilful censors. From William Caxton’s dedication of his translated History of Jason to young Prince Edward in 1477 (‘to thentent/he may begynne to lerne read Englissh’), to Edgar Taylor’s justification of the first translation into English of Grimms’ tales as a means of promoting children’s imaginations in an age of reason, translators have recorded in prefaces and other writings their didactic, religious, aesthetic, financial, and even political purposes for translating children’s texts.
