Science in Arabic Poetry: FSTC Explores a New Face of Muslim Heritage |
|
By: The Editorial Board, Fri 27 January, 2012 |
|
The Editorial Board Poetry was a fundamental tool of creation in the classical Arab culture before and after Islam. In poetry, Arabs expressed all aspects of their lives and mirrored their emotions, ideas and ethics. The scholars of Islamic civilization documented the classical heritage of Arabic poetry and showed that this heritage included several aspects of the Islamic scientific tradition in medicine, mathematics, chemistry, astronomy, navigation and various natural sciences. The heritage of science in Arabic poetry was celebrated by FSTC and 1001 Inventions in Abu Dhabi (UAE) on December 22nd 2011 in a special event under the general theme of Poetry and Science in Islamic Civilization. On this well attended unique occasion, the poems of medieval Islamic physicians and scientists were presented.
