商品描述

This open access book takes a fresh look at the nature and place of experience in premodern Islamic science. It seeks to answer two questions: What kind of experience constituted premodern Islamic science? And in what ways did that experience constitute science? Answering these questions, the authors critique the trajectory of most existing histories of the period, which tend to reduce "experience" to empirical method or practice. This view reflects the emphasis that histories of modern science, especially of the Scientific Revolution, have placed on empiricism--the standard against which Islamic actors were then measured. This book offers a new historiography, arguing that experience had a far wider scope in the world of Islamic science. Combining an innovative theoretical framework with three case studies and a reflective epilogue by renowned experts in the field, this work offers the history of science a solid foundation on which to build its analyses of premodern science and the modality, scope, and role of experience therein. As a result, it speaks to specialists in the history of premodern Islamic science and historians of science in general to reconsider their historiographical assumptions.

這本開放存取的書籍重新審視了經驗在前現代伊斯蘭科學中的本質和地位。它試圖回答兩個問題：什麼樣的經驗構成了前現代伊斯蘭科學？這些經驗又以什麼方式構成了科學？在回答這些問題時，作者批評了大多數現有的該時期歷史，這些歷史往往將「經驗」簡化為經驗方法或實踐。這種觀點反映了現代科學歷史，特別是科學革命的歷史，對經驗主義的強調——這是當時評估伊斯蘭行為者的標準。這本書提供了一種新的歷史學論述，主張經驗在伊斯蘭科學的世界中具有更廣泛的範疇。結合創新的理論框架、三個案例研究以及該領域知名專家的反思性後記，這部作品為科學史提供了一個堅實的基礎，以便對前現代科學及其經驗的方式、範疇和角色進行分析。因此，它呼籲前現代伊斯蘭科學的專家和一般科學史學家重新考慮他們的歷史學假設。

作者簡介

Hannah Erlwein holds a PhD in Islamic intellectual history from SOAS University of London (2016). She specializes in the two premodern Islamic sciences of kalam (theology) and falsafa (philosophy). She has published several articles and chapters dealing with various aspects of the premodern Islamic intellectual tradition. Her PhD thesis was published by De Gruyter in 2019 as Arguments for the Existence of God is Classical Islamic Thought: A Re-appraisal of Perspectives and Discourses. She has conducted postdoctoral research at LMU Munich (2017-2019) and the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Berlin (2019-present) within Katja Krause's research group "Experience in the Premodern Sciences of Soul and Body, ca. 800-1650." At the MPIWG, she has investigated premodern Islamic debates about the nature of, and ways to attain, scientific knowledge, with a particular focus on the notion of experience.

Katja Krause, professor of the history of science at the Technical University Berlin, leads the Max Planck Research Group "Experience in the Premodern Sciences of Soul and Body" at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. Her research rethinks the relationship between experience and science in the premodern sciences of living beings. She is also interested in the continuities and discontinuities of scientific practices and ideals from premodernity to the present. Among her recent publications are Aquinas on Seeing God (Marquette University Press, 2020) and the edited collection Premodern Experience of the Natural World in Translation (Routledge, 2023). After earning her PhD in philosophy at King's College London, Katja Krause held postdoctoral fellowships in the history of science at the MPIWG and Harvard University and an assistant professorship in medieval thought at Durham University.

作者簡介(中文翻譯)

漢娜·埃爾維恩（Hannah Erlwein）於倫敦大學亞非學院（SOAS University of London）獲得伊斯蘭知識史的博士學位（2016年）。她專注於兩門前現代伊斯蘭科學：kalam（神學）和falsafa（哲學）。她發表了多篇文章和章節，探討前現代伊斯蘭知識傳統的各個方面。她的博士論文於2019年由德古里特出版社（De Gruyter）出版，題為Arguments for the Existence of God is Classical Islamic Thought: A Re-appraisal of Perspectives and Discourses。她曾在慕尼黑大學（LMU Munich）進行博士後研究（2017-2019），並在柏林馬克斯·普朗克科學史研究所（Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Berlin）進行博士後研究（2019年至今），隸屬於卡佳·克勞斯（Katja Krause）的研究小組「靈魂與身體的前現代科學經驗，約800-1650年」。在馬克斯·普朗克科學史研究所，她研究了前現代伊斯蘭對於科學知識的本質及其獲得方式的辯論，特別關注經驗的概念。

卡佳·克勞斯（Katja Krause）是柏林工業大學的科學史教授，領導馬克斯·普朗克科學史研究所的「靈魂與身體的前現代科學經驗」研究小組。她的研究重新思考了前現代生物科學中經驗與科學之間的關係。她也對從前現代到現在的科學實踐和理想的連續性與不連續性感興趣。她最近的出版物包括《阿奎那斯論看見上帝》（Aquinas on Seeing God，馬凱特大學出版社，2020年）和編輯的合集《前現代自然世界的經驗翻譯》（Premodern Experience of the Natural World in Translation，勞特利奇出版社，2023年）。卡佳·克勞斯在倫敦國王學院獲得哲學博士學位後，曾在馬克斯·普朗克科學史研究所和哈佛大學擔任科學史的博士後研究員，並在杜倫大學擔任中世紀思想的助理教授。
