Sinopsis

A classic tale of a lone learner who seeks truth through observation and reason. This philosophical story follows a self-taught youth who grows from careful study of the natural world into deep questions about existence, creation, and the Creator.

Set against a vivid backdrop of island life, it blends practical curiosity with spiritual reflection. The journey covers early astronomy, the finite nature of the heavens, and the search for a cause beyond the visible world, all framed by a respect for tradition and an insistence on clear thinking.

What you’ll experience
- A guided walk through Hayy Ibn Yoqdhan’s observations of the sky, motion, and the shape of the world
- A exploration of how one thinker moves from sensory knowledge toward metaphysical questions
- Reflections on how tradition and inquiry intersect, guiding characters toward or away from established beliefs
- A compact, thought‑provoking narrative that blends science, philosophy, and faith

Ideal for readers of philosophical fiction, classic tales of intellectual discovery, and those curious about the roots of scientific thinking.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The Awakening of the Soul: Rendered From the Arabic, With Introduction

Generally looked upon as a subject of repulsive aridity, in its strange combination of the most heterogeneous philosophical systems, devoid of the grace and charm of attractive style, nu brightened by brilliancy of wit or spirit, Arabian philosophy has, for centuries past, been subject to sad and undeserved neglect.
