| Notes |
This is a work in Latin that goes under the title: Avicenna’s De celo et mundo and was printed in Venice with several of his other works in 1508 (I, ff. 37-42). This work has sixteen chapters whereas the De caelo of the Arabic Shifã’ has ten. Could this be the earlier version mentioned in Ibn Sīnã's ʿIllat qiyām al-arḍ? Probably not; cf. Janssens, who refers to it as pseudo-Avicenna ([1991], p. 275). |
