Presentation of the book manuscript of Avicenna "on 23 April at 18:00 in Valdeande.
Avicenna, the great sage learned one of the most famous libraries in the world, then set fire going to forget all that wisdom, but Avicenna summarized all the knowledge in a single manuscript.
After much back and forth, at the end of the manuscript was hidden in a magical, unique place. All great powers seek it, but Valdeandemagico always followed the magical symbols
"The manuscript of Avicenna" a book everyone should read.
"At fifty-seven, thin, with sharp features, delicate fingers, eyes sunken, blackened skin, was devalued image of the doctor who was at one time. His tenure in filthy jails, the voluntary exile to escape those who sought to enslave his science, working hours among patients from all sources and the sleepless nights devoted to the study had changed into a wreck tired. "
Avicenna This was 57 years old, and a step away from death.
Why Avicenna chose for my novel? Avicenna-
I like to call it by its Arabic name, Ibn Sina, was ahead of his time. One of the most important doctors of old, and a great philosopher and humanist . Science
lifted to levels never achieved until then. He wrote over 250 books on medicine, philosophy, astrology ... but many of them did not make it to this day.
Three hundred years after his death his books still used to cure the sick. With the use of science, we have expanded our average life expectancy. Although not to the point of becoming immortal, of course.
But Ibn Sina was much more than a doctor. What really attracted me to him were not knowledge but their ability to maintain integrity to the emirs whom he served, while on the other side of life drank drinks. This contradiction
righteous man and did playboy man deeply in my eyes.
And that same humanity led him to seek knowledge with an intensity that removed all the concepts that previously existed.
"Paper Books Arabic, Egyptian papyrus scrolls, bronzes Babylonian cuneiform, per braced gamines of skin, tablets Chinese junk. Tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, were piled on shelves in white birch along the walls of the room. A dozen students reading or writing in four tables arranged on one side of the room. Ibn Sina
slowly toured some of the shelves. Under his watchful eye passed works of Pliny, Seneca, Cato, Cicero, Al-Farabi, Ibn Isaac, Hippocrates, Galen, Plato ... At the end, he knelt in the middle of the room and wept. "
And from there and created new concepts introduced in nearly three hundred books. What if one of those hopelessly lost work time locked in one of the most important discoveries of history?
You might say that is very daring sure, without any evidence to defend him, of course.
