In this essay, I present and explicate Avicenna's doctrine of truth in his Metaphysics of the Healing . I begin by discussing the way Avicenna introduces his doctrine of truth within his presentation of the first principles of metaphysics and their integration with his innovative appropriation of Aristotle's four senses of being. I then canvass the doctrines of truth found in Aristotle and al-Kindī and show how they influenced Avicenna's novel division of truth found in the first book of his Metaphysics of the Healing . In the final sections of the paper, I illustrate the ways Avicenna applies and amplifies his division of truth within the ontological, aitiological, theological, and epistemological parts of his metaphysics. I show that Avicenna developed a systematic and hierarchical doctrine of truth that culminates in God as the First Truth that causes all contingent truths to exist.

阿维森纳的疗愈与真理的形而上学

在这篇文章中，我在他的《治疗的形而上学》中提出并解释了阿维森纳的真理学说。我首先讨论阿维森纳在他对形而上学的第一原理的介绍中介绍他的真理学说的方式，以及这些原理与他对亚里士多德四种存在感的创新运用的结合。然后，我仔细研究了亚里士多德和金迪 (al-Kindī) 中的真理学说，并展示了它们如何影响阿维森纳 (Avicenna) 在他的《治疗形而上学》(Metaphysics of the Healing) 的第一本书中发现的新颖的真理划分。在论文的最后部分，我说明了阿维森纳如何应用和放大他在形而上学的本体论、唯物论、神学和认识论部分中对真理的划分。
