成人大片

This edited volume of chapters resulted from an international conference held at the 成人大片 in July 2016 under the same title to explore the multifaceted concept of听士颈濒尘听in Islam 鈥� its agency and manifestations in the connected realms of science, religion, and the arts. The aim is to explore the Islamic civilisational responses to major shifts in the concept of 鈥榢nowledge鈥� that took place in the post-mediaeval period, and especially within the context of the 鈥榚arly modern鈥�.

From the perspective of this volume, as shown by the multiple perspectives of the authors, the true value of knowledge lies in its cross-civilisational reach, as when the development of knowledge in pre-modern Islam exerted profound changes onto the Europeans, whose resurgence in the early modern period has in turn forced massive changes onto the Islamic worldview and its systems of knowledge. Now the landscape of knowledge has significantly changed, the Muslim mind, which has been historically calibrated to be particularly sensitive towards knowledge, can and should open to new horizons of knowing where science, religion, and art can meet again on freshly cultivated and intellectually fertile grounds.
