АНТИЧКОТО НАСЛЕДСТВО ВО ИСЛАМОТ
ANCIENT HERITAGE IN ISLAM

Summary/Abstract: The paper The Heritage of the Antiquity in the Islam accentuates the importance of the connection of the Islam and the Hellenic civilisation through several examples. I focused on the translation of the work from the famous Greek thinker and father of the modern medicine Hippocrates, which in 1475 was mentioned in the vakafnama of the Skopje’s governor (kraishnik) Issa Bey, among the books in his library in Skopje. The second example that I have observed is the image of the Alexander the Great and its appearance in the theology, literature and the culture through the transcription Iskender. The parallels drown between the image of Alexander the Great and that of the image, work and the symbols of the Albanian national hero George Kastriot Skenderbey create one whole where the tradition, the history and the Balkan culture are intertwined.
