Originating Calendar: CSAMES events; This talk will discuss the significance of Haydar Amuli’s (d. 790/1388) most important work, Jami’ al-asrar. Amuli was the most important medieval heir to the teachings of Ibn ‘Arabi and as a Twelver Shi'a, he recast Ibn 'Arabi's doctrines into a wider Shi'i cosmological framework.
