Abstract

Extant information about Ibn Bājja’s interest in climatology is limited to a few vague anecdotes. This article seeks to expand our understanding of his views on the inhabitable and uninhabitable regions of the earth, drawing primarily on his commentaries on Aristotle’s Meteorology (al-Āthār al-ʿulwiyya) and Generation and Corruption (al-Kawn wa-l-fasād). The article presents an attempt to explain why Ibn Bājja believed that some sections of the earth are inhabitable, how climate affects the human character, and how this topic fits into Ibn Bājja’s overall framework of thought.

伊本Bājja关于气候

关于伊本Bājja对气候学的兴趣，现存的信息仅限于一些模糊的轶事。这篇文章试图扩大我们对他关于地球上宜居和不宜居地区的观点的理解，主要借鉴他对亚里士多德的气象学（al- -Āthār al- al- al- ulwiyya）和生成与腐败（al- kawn wa-l-fasād）的评论。这篇文章试图解释为什么伊本Bājja认为地球的某些部分是适合居住的，气候是如何影响人类性格的，以及这个话题是如何融入伊本Bājja的整体思想框架的。

期刊介绍： Early Science and Medicine (ESM) is a peer-reviewed international journal dedicated to the history of science, medicine and technology from the earliest times through to the end of the eighteenth century. The need to treat in a single journal all aspects of scientific activity and thought to the eighteenth century is due to two factors: to the continued importance of ancient sources throughout the Middle Ages and the early modern period, and to the comparably low degree of specialization and the high degree of disciplinary interdependence characterizing the period before the professionalization of science.
