This volume translates Brentano’s intentionality into medieval psychological and ontological discussions through Sadrian theories of sense perception and mental existence. Applying a new methodology, it reframes various parts of Sadrian theory around the problem of intentionality, which results in a refreshed reading of the philosopher Mulla Sadra. The book starts out by defining intentionality problem and discussing the historiography of Brentano’s conceptualization. It examines immateriality, content and aboutness, and sense perception. In its conclusion, the book claims that intentionality in Mulla Sadra combines ontological and psychological realities and that as a result of Sadrian monism, the intentionality, intentional object, the agent, and the reality are different versions of same reality.

The initiate’s preceptor is a personal celestial spirit, ‘the perfect nature’ which represents the ontological origin of his soul. This volume will be the first study of The Hidden Secret and its theory of astral magic, wh...

Otorite tarih boyunca mahiyeti, gerekliliği ve sınırları tartışılan bir kavram olagelmiştir. Böylesine tartışmalı bir özellik taşıması otoritenin her daim gündemde kalabilmesine yardım etmiştir. Kavramın gündeme geldiği birincil alan ise siyaset olmuştur. Otorite, kendisine eşlik eden iktidar kavramı ile birlikte, siyasetin en temel meselelerinden birini oluşturmuştur ve oluşturmaya da devam etmektedir. Bununla birlikte, otoriteyi yalnızca siyaset sahasına hapsetmemek gerektiğinin de altı ısrarla çizilmelidir. Çünkü o, siyaset yanında dinden bilime, sanattan felsefeye değin hemen her alanda karşımıza çıkmaktadır. İslâm düşüncesi merkezli bir ...
