Description

This book presents a vital re-engagement with a foundational work of classical thought; the 13th Century Pewrsian book on philosophical Ethics by Nasir al-Din al-Tusi, known as Nasirean Ethics. It is the first major translation and re-presentation of Nasirean Ethics since the 1960s. The author offers a significant reinterpretation and summary of the original text for the contemporary scholar, enriched with a detailed Introduction, and extensive critical notes. Timeless concepts are situated in current academic debates, exploring the enduring relevance of moral virtues, the nature of the human soul, and the principles of good governance. It is an important scholarly reference work for collections in philosophy, mediaeval thought, and the philosophy and history of the Middle East.
