点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

By deepening our understanding of the philosophical tradition of the Islamic world, this project will 'enhance Australia's capacity to interpret and engage with its regional environment through a greater understanding of languages, societies and cultures' (Research priority 4: Understanding our region and the world), an understanding so much needed in Australia's increasingly pluralistic society. The pure research aspect of this project will attract attention to Australian based research in Medieval and studies and Arabic philosophy that is of international quality, contribute to the reputation of Australia's high quality research capability, and open new possibilities for international cooperation in the field.
