Political Islam Iran and The Enlightenment
By: Ali Mirsepassi
When the French philosopher and scholar Henry Corbin visited Iranin 1945, Allamah Tabataba’i, the most eminent Shi’i scholar and philosopher of the time, traveled from Qomto Tehranjust to meet with him. Corbin conducted several intense dialogues with Tabataba’i and a number of other religious scholars, some of whom later became the leaders of the Islamic Republic (Motahari, Beheshti). Corbin was also a mentor to Darush Shayegan and Housen Nasr, two of the most prominent secular scholars in Iran. Perhaps most significantly, he was highly influential for Ali Shari’ati, one of the better known Islamist intellectuals of the 1970s, who had studied with Corbin at the Sorbonne. Corbin was a scholar of spiritual Islam and Iranian Islamic philosophy, but his importance for Iranian religious intellectuals had an additional mysterious dimension. He was known as the French Heideggerian scholar of Islam, and he wielded a particularly important influence for this reason. [download]
