Abstract

The book examines fundamental models that helped form theoretical concepts of the Arab-Muslim culture: asl and far' (the stem and the branch), zahir and batin (the manifest and the hidden) as well as others as exemplified by their role in constructing philosophical, philological, doctrinal, historical knowledge. It exposes the role of substance- and process-oriented logics in the perception of the universal and the particular, the unity and the multiplicity in verbal and non-verbal areas. The book presents a conceptual insight into the dynamics of the Islamic culture and includes new translations and studies of Sufism.
