Title

AN EXPLANATION OF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF PHILOSOPHY AND ITS DIFFERENCE FROM OTHER FIELDS OF KNOWLEDGE

Pages

  97-119

Abstract

 A field of knowledge for its being a field of knowledge is indebted to the coherence of its issues and the coherence of issues is indebted to a unifying factor. This factor is considered the SUBJECT matter of any field of knowledge. The question focused on in the present paper is the determination of the SUBJECT matter of PHILOSOPHY and its difference from the other fields of knowledge from Avicenna’s and Mulla Sadra’s points of view. The SUBJECT matter of any field of knowledge is the one whose ESSENTIAL ACCIDENTS are the focus of discussion. In other words, the predicates of issues in any field of knowledge constitute the ESSENTIAL ACCIDENTS of that filed of knowledge. Therefore, there is a close relationship between each field of knowledge and its issues. According to Avicenna and Mulla Sadra, the SUBJECT matter of PHILOSOPHY is EXISTENCE as it exists and the issues of EXISTENCE as it exists are among the ESSENTIAL ACCIDENTS of EXISTENCE in general. However, the application of the logical rules of PHILOSOPHY on what is propounded as philosophical issues is controversial, since the philosophical issues must be among the ESSENTIAL ACCIDENTS of EXISTENCE as it exists, while this application to some of the issues is truly problematic. So there is a gap between the definition of PHILOSOPHY and its realization which needs to be bridged. For example, if we wish to prove our beliefs philosophically we can examine them in a separate field of knowledge or in CO-RELATED PHILOSOPHIES. Therefore, there is no ban to the efforts to identify and define the different areas of PHILOSOPHY with different domains through which we can reach at specific and general philosophies.
