- Paperback
Ibn 'Arabi (1165-1240) was one of the great mystics of all time. Through the richness of his personal experience and the constructive power of his intellect, he made a unique contribution to Shi'ite Sufism. Here Islamic religion scholar Henry Corbin relates Islamic mysticism to mystical thought in the West, comparing Shakespeare's implied cosmology in such works as HAMLET and THE TEMPEST to the Sufi's imaginal realm or "place of souls". 5 plates, 2 in color.
