Neo-mu'tazilismus? Intention Und Kontext Im Modernen Arabischen Umgang Mit Dem rationalistischen Erbe des Islam(Repost)

This book examines the modern Arab rediscovery of the Mu tazila through a critical assessment of the concept of "Neo-Mu tazilism" and by concentrating on the various intentions and contexts of the use of Mu tazilite ideas. The main part of the book analyzes five ways of understanding Mu'tazilite ideas liberal, historic-materialist, political-Islamic, literary-exegetical and through comparison with the philosophie des valeurs as well as one way of dealing with the school historically: the treatment of the mi na. The book discusses a wide range of authors of whom many, such as A mad Am n, usain Mur wa, asan anaf, Mu ammad Am ra, Na r Ab Zaid und Mu ammad bid al- bir, have had an important impact on modern Arab-Islamic thought. By also presenting authors such as Zuhd rall h, Chikh Bouamrane, Ra d al- ayy n, Am n N yif iy b, Sam Du aim, dil al- Aww und Fahm ad n, additional light is shed on a number of lesser known figures."
