The Arabic Philosophy stream is a new initiative under the Philosophy of Religion. It draws on the extraordinary breadth of expertise the Faculty of Divinity currently has in Arabic and Islamic philosophy. No Arabic is required, though there is provision for preliminary language training, and the exercise and modules provide parallel language texts where available. The stream welcomes those eligible for the Philosophy of Religion Pathway, as well as those trained in Arabic in an Oriental Studies faculty. Students in this pathway are expected to attend Professor John Marenbon’s (jm258@cam.ac.uk) Medieval Philosophy Reading Group each week, and Dr Amal Awad’s (aaa84@cam.ac.uk) Arabic Philosophy Reading Group each week in Michaelmas Term.
Pathway Advisor and Module Coordinator: Dr Yasser Qureshy (yza20@cam.ac.uk)
