Note 636 — PART IV PROBABILITY OF THE TRANSMISSION OF ISLAMIC MODELS TO CHRISTIAN EUROPE AND PARTICULARLY TO DANTE
Harold Sunderland translation
In so delicate a matter as the question of the union of the active intellect with man, he declares (Opera omnia, III, 3, De Anima, 166):
“Nos autem dissentimus in paucis ab Averroe....” “His duobus suppositis, accipimus alia duo ab Alfarabio....” “In causa autem quam inducemus et modo, convenimus in toto cum Averroe et Avempace, in parte cum Alfarabio.”
and he rejects the opinion of the Latin scholars (Ibid. p. 143), “Sed isti, absque dubio, numquam bene intentionem Aristotelis intellexerunt.”
