Ahmed Şevkî Efendi’nin Risâle fî Âdâbi’l-Münâzara İsimli Eseri ve Âdâbu’l-Bahs ve’l-Münazara Geleneğindeki Yeri
Ahmad Shawqi b. Abd Allah’s Risâla fî Âdâb al-Munâzara and its Place in the Tradition of Adab al-Bahth wa-al-Munazara

Summary/Abstract: This article deals with the discipline of âdâb al- bahth wa al-munâzara (Islamic disputation theory), in the framework of Risâla fî Âdâb al-Munâzara by the Ottoman scholar Ahmad Shawqi b. Abd Allah (d. 1809). Âdâb al- bahth wa al-munâzara, systematized by Sham al-Dîn al-Samarqandî (d. 1322), was later perfected in Ottoman intellectual circles. However, âdâb al- bahth has been to a great extent overlooked in modern studies of Islamic philosophy and logic. This article attempts to make a modest contribution to this much neglected field by editing and analyzing this short treatise of Ahmad Shawqi.
