Description:

Led by Arabic scholars, the translation into Arabic of Greek philosophical, mathematical, medical and other scientific works played a significant role in the formation of the medieval Islamic civilization. The movement also ensured that many important classical texts survivied for us today, even though the original Greek writings are long lost. If this free talk interests you, consider joining my full 10 week course: From Athens to Baghdad: Graeco-Arabic Literature and the Golden Age of Islam (available for booking soon on at www.liverpool.ac.uk/continuing-education/).
