UDK 1 Ibn Sina

Uvodna rasprava, prijevod poslanice i komentari u fusnotama: Ermin Klepo
Ljubav je vječna inspiracija. O ljubavi govore svi, ali šta je ljubav i ima li ona racionalno pojašnjenje pitanje je na koje su se samo rijetki usudili odgovoriti. Stara Grčka je kolijevka nama poznate zapadne filozofije čiji su glavni predstavnici Platon i Aristotel. Oni su pokušali racionalno odgonetnuti emocionalnu zagonetku koja se zove ljubav. Kasnije su na tom njihovom tragu pisali i islamski mislioci i filozofi. Može se kazati da o ljubavi na racionalan način, koji u nekim segmentima graniči i s islamskom gnozom, niko nije govorio kao što je to činio Ibn Sina. Ovaj tekst, nakon kratkog historijskog pregleda misli najznačajnijih učenjaka o ljubavi, donosi i prijevod Poslanice o suštini ljubavi, koju je Ibn Sina napisao na zahtjev svog prijatelja.
Ključne riječi: ljubav, Ibn Sina, tradicija, filozofija, duša, egzistent, egzistencija, akcident, supstancija, božanska duša, bitak, dobro.
Epistle on the Essence of Love by Ibn Sina and a Brief Overview of the Vision of Love in Philosophy through History
The introductory discussion, the translation of the epistle and commentaries in footnotes by Ermin Klepo
Abstract
Love is an eternal inspiration. Everyone talks about love, but what love is and whether there is a rational explanation of love are questions that only few dared to answer. Ancient Greece is a cradle of western philosophy as we know it, whose main representatives were Plato and Aristotle. They rationally tried to solve the emotional riddle called love. Later on, following their trail, Islamic intellectuals and philosophers also wrote about love. It can be argued that no one talked about love in a rational way, which in some segments borders with Islamic gnosis, like Ibn Sina did. This paper, after a brief historical overview of the opinions of the most significant scholars about love, also presents the translation of the Epistle on the essence of love that was written by Ibn Sina upon a request of his friend.
