BEAUCHESNE

Avicenne a du deux grands disciples, Abu'l-Barakat al-Baghdadi et Fakhr al-Din al-Razi qui se sont l'un et l'autre librement inspires de sa pensee. Razi, quoique tres dur dans les discussions avec ses partenaires, se distingue sur le plan des idees par un esprit conciliateur qui cherche a rapprocher le mu'tazilisme et l'ash'arisme, en s'appuyant sur sa vaste connaissance des sciences coraniques et de la philosophie, voire des sciences profanes de son temps, et sur sa sensiblite aux graves problemes, tant politiques que religieux et culturels, qui dechiraient alors le monde musulman. Son commentaire du Coran, prepare par sa grande synthese philosophique, les mabahith al-mashriqiyya, est rempli de trouvailles originales qui font de lui un penseur tres attrayant.
