Mateus Domingues da Silva

Postdoctoral researcher in Arabic and Islamic studies, I work on the Islamic intellectual history, and, more precisely, on philosophical topics, but also topics involving sources from Islamic Theology, Mysticism, and the sciences as well. My area of interest is the reception of Avicennaʾs metaphysics among some Arabic philosophers in the 6/12ᵗʰ and 7/13ᵗʰ centuries. My main research focuses on as-Suhrawardī al-Maqtūlʾs (d. 587/1191) works.
