Al-Farabi - The Second Master (Episode 3): • Centuries before Karl Marx proposed his influential dialectic and Max Weber explored the utility of the division of labour, a multi-talented Central Asian philosopher musician by the name of Abu Nasr Al-Farabi laid the intellectual framework for which these ideas where developed from. Contributing heavily to the fields of Music Theory and Social science, Al-Farabi is best remembered for his seminal social science text Opinions of the Inhabitants of the Virtuous City . • Inspired by Plato's Republic, Al-Farabi's text combined Platonic, Aristotelean and Islamic Virtues to systemise a practical guide for the creation of Utopian (or Virtuous ) City States. According to Al-Farabi, In these Utopian City States, rules would be just, enlightened and equitable, and citizens would live each according to their ability and to each according to their needs. Al-Farabi is also known to have worked along side the prominent Christian Philosopher Yahya ibn Adi, and is celebrated as an intellectual ambassador of the Central Asian and Khorasan region (having either Turkish or Turkmen heritage). Additionally, Al-Farabi is adored for his works on music with Al-Farabi being an early pioneer in the systemisation of Music. • This is part three of our series on Islamic philosophy. • BECOME A YOUTUBE MEMBER • / @oasesofwisdom • SUPPORT US ON PATREON • / membership • TIMESTAMPS • Introduction - 00:00 • Personal Life - 01:05 • Career - 01:55 • Psychology and City States - 03:07 • Conclusion - 06:40 • PREVIOUS VIDEO • Al-Razi - The Physician Philosopher • • Al-Razi - The Physician Philosopher (... • SOCIAL MEDIA • Instagram: / oasesofwisdom • CREDITS • Logo by Hala Sheta • TAGS • #philosophy #history #islam • By Oasis/Oases of Wisdom.
