作品

  • 约840年论第一哲学

    阿拉伯形而上学的第一篇论著：哲学是不论来源何处都要追寻真理；论证世界不可能是永恒的；上帝是超越一切描述的真一。

立场

Al-Kindi was the first major philosopher writing in Arabic and was honoured as “the philosopher of the Arabs”. He argued that truth should be welcomed from wherever it comes, even from foreign peoples, and that philosophy and prophetic revelation agree. In his metaphysics God is the “True One”, the cause of all being and unity. Unlike later Aristotelians, he argued that the world cannot be eternal but was created in time. His treatises on the intellect and on dispelling sorrow, which draws on Stoic ideas, brought Greek concepts into Arabic and shaped its philosophical vocabulary; al-Farabi and Avicenna built on other foundations.

生平与背景

Born around 801 in Kufa into a prominent Arab family, al-Kindi worked in Baghdad under the Abbasid caliphs al-Ma’mun and al-Mu’tasim, at the height of the translation movement that brought Greek science into Arabic. He supervised translations, tutored a caliph’s son and wrote on mathematics, optics, medicine and music. Under al-Mutawakkil he lost favour; he died around 873.
