This anthology, which is divided into three volumes, aims to communicate something of that richness and diversity. The term 'philosophy' is understood to in its widest sense to include theological debate, philosophical Sufism and philosophical hermeneutics (ta'wil). Extending over a period of more than two millennia, and showcasing translations by well-established scholars, the anthology offers full bibliographical references throughout. For anyone interested in exploring, in all their varied manifestations, the fascinating philosophical traditions of Persia, such a wide-ranging and ambitious work will be an indispensable resource. Volume 2 covers five centuries of Ismaili philosophy, and includes extracts from outstanding Ismaili works including the "Rasa'il Ikhwan al-Safa" ("Treatises of the Brethren of Purity") and the philosophical odes of Nasir Khusraw. It is of great siginificance that, in the early centuries of Islam, philosophers were influenced by Pythagorean and Hermetic ideas, which are usually associated with Shi'i thought in general and Ismailism in particular. Ismaili philosophy at this time was able to integrate strands of Greco-Alexandrian thought such as Hermeticism and Neo-Pythagoreanism, as well as aspects of Mazdaeism and Manichaeism. It also showed marked interest in Neo-platonism."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Philosophy, IranianIslamic & Arabic philosophyBICPhilosophy, Iranian.Islamic & Arabic philosophy.181.5181.5Nasr Seyyed Hossein202682Razavi Mehdi Amin1957-UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910886983003321An anthology of philosophy in Persia4229971UNINA04107nam 22005895 450 991030039410332120251117071329.01-4614-8733-110.1007/978-1-4614-8733-3(CKB)3710000000025017(EBL)1538868(SSID)ssj0001049381(PQKBManifestationID)11588415(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001049381(PQKBWorkID)11019377(PQKB)10977471(DE-He213)978-1-4614-8733-3(MiAaPQ)EBC1538868(PPN)176099514(EXLCZ)99371000000002501720131010d2014 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrA Buyer's and User's Guide to Astronomical Telescopes and Binoculars /by James Mullaney2nd ed. 2014.New York, NY :Springer New York :Imprint: Springer,2014.1 online resource (232 p.)The Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series,1431-9756Description based upon print version of record.1-4614-8732-3 Part I Buying Astronomical Telescopes & Binoculars -- Introduction -- Binoculars -- Telescope Basics -- Refracting Telescopes -- Reflecting Telescopes -- Catadioptric Telescopes -- Accessories -- Astroimaging -- Binocular Sources -- Telescope Sources -- Part II Using Astronomical Telescopes and Binoculars -- Observing the Techniques -- Observing Programs -- Conclusion -- Pro-Am Collaboration.Amateur astronomers of all skill levels are always contemplating their next telescope, and this book points the way to the most suitable instruments. Similarly, those who are buying their first telescopes – and these days not necessarily a low-cost one – will be able to compare and contrast different types and manufacturers. This revised new guide provides an extensive overview of binoculars and telescopes. It includes detailed up-to-date information on sources, selection and use of virtually every major type, brand, and model on today’s market, a truly invaluable treasure-trove of information and helpful advice for all amateur astronomers. Originally written in 2006, much of the first edition is inevitably now out of date, as equipment advances and manufacturers come and go. This second edition not only updates all the existing sections but adds two new ones: Astro-imaging and Professional-Amateur collaboration. Thanks to the rapid and amazing developments that have been made in digital cameras it is easily possible to image all sorts of astronomical objects and fields. Selecting the right device for a variety of purposes can be an overwhelming task in a market crowded with observing options, but this comprehensive guide clarifies the process. Anyone planning to purchase binoculars or telescopes for astronomy – whether as a first instrument or as an upgrade to the next level – will find this book a treasure-trove of information and advice. It also supplies the reader with many useful hints and tips on using astronomical telescopes or binoculars to get the best possible results.The Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series,1431-9756AstronomyObservationsAstronomy—ObservationsAstronomyAstronomy, Observations and Techniqueshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014Popular Science in Astronomyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q11009AstronomyAstronomy—Observations.Astronomy.Astronomy, Observations and Techniques.Popular Science in Astronomy.522.2Mullaney Jamesauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut791310BOOK9910300394103321Buyer's and User's Guide to Astronomical Telescopes and Binoculars1768672UNINA
