Stanowisko
Nasr defends a “perennial philosophy”: beneath the different religions lies a single sacred wisdom that sees the cosmos as a manifestation of the divine. Modern science, he argues, broke this unity by treating nature as mere matter to be measured and exploited; the ecological crisis is at root a spiritual crisis. Already in the 1960s he warned of it, long before environmental ethics became widespread. As a historian he presented Islamic philosophy and science, from Avicenna to Suhrawardi and Mulla Sadra, as living traditions rather than mere precursors of the West. In 1981 he became the first Muslim to give the Gifford Lectures.
Życie i kontekst
Nasr was born in Tehran in 1933 and sent to the United States as a boy. He studied physics at MIT and took his doctorate in the history of science at Harvard. Returning to Iran, he taught at the University of Tehran and founded the Imperial Iranian Academy of Philosophy. After the revolution of 1979 he settled in the United States, teaching since 1984 at George Washington University.
