A Bridge Between Earth & Sky: How The Natural World Shaped The Civilizations Of Ancient And Early-Modern Persia, Sophia Cabana
A Bridge Between Earth & Sky: How The Natural World Shaped The Civilizations Of Ancient And Early-Modern Persia, Sophia Cabana
Senior Honors Projects, 2010-2019
This project seeks to investigate the ways in which nature shaped the culture of ancient Persia through technology, architecture, agriculture, and art. Furthermore, this project investigates how the symbols and mentalities of ancient Persia were carried forward into the early-modern period. Achaemenid Persia and Babylon are studied as societies which influenced one another and combined to create the foundation of Persian culture as it is currently understood, which then combined in later centuries with other Middle Eastern and Central Asian cultural movements to produce the Safavid and Mughal Empires. The Safavids and Mughals imitated and revived Persian culture in order …
John The Solitary's Epistle To Marcianus: Edition, Translation, And Analysis, Ethan K. Laster
John The Solitary's Epistle To Marcianus: Edition, Translation, And Analysis, Ethan K. Laster

Los Atributos Divinos Y El Problema De La Unicidad De Dios En La Obra De Averroes, Joen Laureth Delgado Gómez
Filosofía y Letras
El trabajo de grado aborda el problema de la esencia de Dios y los atributos divinos en el pensamiento de Averroes (1126-1198). Esta cuestión, que hunde sus raíces en el Corán como Revelación y en la tradición profética, forma parte del desarrollo del monoteísmo semita en el Mundo Mediterráneo y Oriente Medio.
Se busca analizar la manera en la que Averroes se aproxima al debate desde la falsafa y el kalam, intentando desarrollar un modelo de lo Divino que fuera compatible con el Islam, a la vez que legitimaba la filosofía como vía válida para intentar comprender la naturaleza de …
