the east was always attractive to
Europe. In the early Middles Ages, translations of Arabic origins laid the
foundation of the European science: mathematics, medicine, philosophy,
astronomy. The west is systematically studying the works of oriental
philosophers including Turkmen scientists that were born and live in our
country. Among these names significant one is Az-Zamahshari – the great
philosopher of the middle Ages, which was called by Bartold “a world
significant scientists”. He was born in
1074 in Khorezm in the city of
Zamahshar (Izmukshir), the ruins of which are located 25km south west from
Dashoguz city. Zamahshari was a hanafistic jurist, a mutazilistic theologist, a
philosopher, a philologist, a man of politics and letter. |
