This important book investigates the emergence and development of a distinct concept of self-awareness in post-classical, pre-modern Islamic philosophy. Jari Kaukua presents the first extended analysis of Avicenna's arguments on self-awareness - including the flying man, the argument from the unity of experience, the argument against reflection models of self-awareness and the argument from personal identity - arguing that all these arguments hinge on a clearly definable concept of self-awareness as pure first-personality. He substantiates his interpretation with an analysis of Suhrawardī's use of Avicenna's concept and Mullā Sadrā's revision of the underlying concept of selfhood. The study explores evidence for a sustained, pre-modern and non-Western discussion of selfhood and self-awareness, challenging the idea that these concepts are distinctly modern, European concerns. The book will be of interest to a range of readers in history of philosophy, history of ideas, Islamic studies and philosophy of mind.

This Handbook presents a comprehensive overview of intuitions from a variety of traditions. It brings together works by the best specialists working on intuitions in five different traditions: the South Asian tradition, the Chinese tradition, the Japanese tradition, the Arabo-Islamic tradition, and the Western tradition with, in this last case, a focus on philosophy of language and on philosophy of mathematics. It highlights the similarities and differences between the traditions bringing the various perspectives into one volume.In the Western traditions, a first approximation to the meaning of the term may be to say that we intuit that p, as opposed to, for example, deducing that p, when we believe that p is true but without the mediation of any other belief, that serves as a basis for believing that p. In the naturalistic perspective, intuition is nothing other than the starting point of a rudimentary theory, expressed by classifications or by instances of singular propositions of the form “This is red”, the bona fide evidence of which are uncontroversial because they are commanded by a wide agreement – a perspective shared by South Asian traditions. Topics in this volume include the importance of intuitions in Madhva’s religious epistemology, intuition in early Confucian philosophy, Nishida and active intuition, intuition in Islamic mysticisms, and evidential and rhetorical moves in the study of language. This volume is of interest to researchers and students of intuition.

This book is a collection of studies on topics related to subjectivity and selfhood in medieval and early modern philosophy. The individual contributions approach the theme from a number of angles varying from cognitive and moral psychology to metaphysics and epistemology. Instead of a complete overview on the historical period, the book provides detailed glimpses into some of the most important figures of the period, such as Augustine, Avicenna, Aquinas, Descartes, Spinoza, Leibniz and Hume. The questions addressed include the ethical problems of the location of one's true self and the proper distribution of labour between desire, passion and reason, and the psychological tasks of accounting for subjective experience and self-knowledge and determining different types of self-awareness.
