Chishm'andāzʹhā-yi Maʻnavī va Falsafī-yi Islām-i Īrānī (jild-i ِChaharum - Bakhsh-i Duvvum): Persian 1400

Within the Islamic community, the Iranian world formed from the beginning a whole whose characters and vocation are only elucidated if we consider the Iranian spiritual universe as forming a whole, before and since the 'Islam. Islamic Iran was par excellence the homeland of the greatest philosophers and mystics of Islam. The monument that Henry Corbin presents here in four volumes of seven books is the result of more than twenty years of research carried out in Iran itself. His method is essentially phenomenological, without being attached to a specific school. For him it is a question of encountering the religious fact by allowing the religious object to be shown as it shows itself to those to whom it shows itself. The phenomenologist must therefore become the spiritual host of those to whom this object is shown and assume its responsibility with them. Any historical consideration will therefore remain immanent here in this object, without imposing on it from outside any foreign category, dialectical consideration or other.
