This monthly seminar will aim to invite researchers to come and present their work in progress or recently published that address the “Arab mathematics”, understood in a broad sense to be studied not only mathematics itself, but science “mathematized” of the era, such as astronomy, optics and static; Furthermore, we do not restrict themselves to only written in Arabic mathematics, but we can address their writings in other languages extensions, like Latin, Hebrew and Farsi.

Modernizers: Changing science and society in the Middle East and North Africa (1870s-1930s)
Re-constructing a local genealogy of the scientific modernization in North Africa and the Middle East is still a pending task. Research on modern Arab-Islamic scientists, physicians and engineers will help expand the collective memory of modernization in those countries by adding new, often badly-known or forgotten actors to its ranks. Biographies will also help illuminate the intrinsic connection existing between science and society, showing how science has always been a necessary element in plans for national independence, social change and democratic rule. This conference will focus on the biographies of some late 19th-early 20th century scientists from Morocco, Egypt, Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria

أزمة علوم الانسان
En ce début de XXIe siècle, le monde vit une crise multidimensionnelle, englobant des problèmes de nature culturelle, économique, politique, sociale et même écologique. Assurément, la pensée moderne a libéré les hommes de l’emprise de la tradition, perçue comme obscurantiste, tout en opérant un changement de paradigme social, politique et économique. La pensée philosophique des Lumières contribue à cette rupture épistémologique en valorisant l’esprit critique et la science moderne. Dès lors, l’esprit technique et la raison critique, aboutissement de la science moderne et du cartésianisme, n’ont pas cessé d’engager la civilisation humaine dans la direction du progrès et le perfectionnement social, politique et économique. Nul n’ignore les avancées civilisatrices qu’a connues l’humanité depuis le déclenchement du mouvement de la modernité que l’Europe a amorcé depuis quelques siècles.
