Recenzii
Ibn Taymiyya is often misunderstood as a simplistic textualist. Sophia Vasalou's masterly book shows that his thought has several surprises in store. Her highly analytical engagement helps us to get at the bottom of his kind of rationalism; a rationalism that has influenced almost all branches of modern and contemporary thought in Islam.
Vasalou's book grapples seriously, even intimately, with the ethical questions that animated Ibn Taymiyya, the larger-than-life intellectual figure who is often - and wrongly, as Vasalou shows - portrayed as a sui generis thinker. Vasalou traces the genealogies of Ibn Taymiyya's ethics in Sunni thought and provides thoughtful analyses of his creative departures from it. This is a major contribution to the study of Islamic ethics that significantly deepens our understanding of its historical genesis.
This is the fullest and most philosophically sophisticated discussion to date of Ibn Taymiyya's utilitarian ethics and vision of human nature (fitra). Taking Ibn Taymiyya's prima facie alignment with the ethical objectivism characteristic of Mu'tazilism as her starting point, Vasalou masterfully shows that he in fact owes far more to medieval Ash'arism than he acknowledges.
