Splitting the Process and the Result : Philosophy from a Legal Perspective in Averroes’ Decisive Treatise

in P. Adamson (ed.), Philosophy and Jurisprudence in the Islamic World (De Gruyter, 2019)

This article adresses how Averroes submits philosophical activity to legal analysis in his Decisive Treatise. It shows the input of the Islamic legal tradition in his arguments and especially the distinction between the process of reasoning and its result, well-established for the jurists and that Averroes applies in his legal investigation of philosophy.
