The famous philosopher and scientist Abū ʿAlī b. Sīnā (d. 428/1037) had an exceptional command of all the subjects on which he wrote. He is especially known for his many writings in logic, philosophy, and medicine. His influence was such that even in Europe, his works on physics, metaphysics and medicine in particular, were widely studied until the beginning of modern times. A keen mind, he had a full understanding of the inner structure of the Islamo-Hellenistic tradition that he perpetuated and in places helped to develop and reshape. This is not only borne out by his many writings, but in some instances also by his explicit accounts of the sciences and their divisions. This article contains an edition of one such account, of which only two copies have been identified so far. It will be argued (against Biesterfeldt) that the text in question is likely to have been written in Bukhārā when Avicenna was still in his early twenties. Moreover, it will be shown that it could very well be that the text was actually copied from his famous Al-ḥāṣil wal-maḥṣūl (Harvest reapings), a philosophical encyclopaedia in twenty volumes long since lost. The absence of algebra and a philosophical rather than a religious foundation of the sciences finally, are important clues to Avicenna's perspective on the rational sciences early in his career.

古代科学及其部门 AQSĀM ʿULŪM AL-AWĀʾIL:归属于 AVICENNA 的文本,带有简要介绍的版本

著名的哲学家和科学家 AbūʿAlī b. Sīnā (d. 428/1037) 对他所写的所有主题有着非凡的驾驭能力。他尤其以他在逻辑、哲学和医学方面的许多著作而闻名。他的影响力如此之大,以至于即使在欧洲,他在物理学、形而上学和医学方面的著作也被广泛研究,直到近代开始。敏锐的头脑,他对伊斯兰-希腊传统的内在结构有充分的了解,他延续并在某些地方帮助发展和重塑了这种传统。这不仅为他的许多著作所证实,而且在某些情况下,他对科学及其分支的明确描述也证实了这一点。这篇文章包含一个这样的帐户的一个版本,到目前为止只发现了两个副本。有人会争论(反对比斯特费尔特)有问题的文本很可能是在阿维森纳二十出头的时候用布哈拉写成的。此外,很可能该文本实际上是从他著名的Al-ḥāṣil wal-maḥṣūl(Harvest reapings),一本二十卷的哲学百科全书,早已失传。代数的缺失和科学的哲学基础而非宗教基础,是阿维森纳在其职业生涯早期对理性科学的看法的重要线索。
