Abstract

Warum ist Abu Reyhan Mohammad ibn Ahmad Biruni (973-1048), ein aus Zentralasien stammender Gelehrter, wichtig? Was hat dieser wissenshungrige Mann des Mittelalters mit uns heute zu tun? Und inwiefern ist jemand, der vorwiegend für seine naturwissenschaftliche Arbeit bekannt ist, interkulturell oder gar interreligiös bedeutsam? Biruni war wissenshungrig wie nur wenige. Lebenslanges Lernen war für ihn kein unter dem Druck der Globalisierung entstandenes Muss, sondern ein Bedürfnis, dem er auch noch auf dem Sterbebett nachging. Er passte so ganz gut in seine Zeit und Kultur. Denn der Aufstieg der

Abstract

"Al-Biruni (ca. 973--1050) was an impressive and innovative encyclopaedist thinker. He is particularly known to have investigated into India of his time. Yet, his life and the circumstances of his encounter with Indian languages, culture and sciences are still shrouded in mystery and legends. This research brings to light elements of his intellectual journey based on well-grounded analysis so as to contextualise al-Biruni's work of transmission of Indian philosophies into Arabic. Thanks to a theoretical framework rooted in a multidisciplinary approach, including Translation Studies, it enables to comprehend the full scope of his work and to analyse deeply his motives and choices of interpretation"--
