The Role of "Undefined" and "Axiomatic Method" in the Beginning of the Comparing of Philosophies, Focusing on Three Islamic Philosophical Systems

Abstract

Comparing philosophies is an effort to find ways of interaction and synergy between these schools. It seems that finding the commonalities and differences between these structures and the appropriate method of achieving this are important. The method can be considered at two levels: macro and definite levels. The problem here is that if for this adaptation we choose the phenomenological method with carbon as a macro method, and to give objectivity to this macro method, the adapted structures in the context of the "Axiomatic method" in the contemporary time using the theory of the "model" has become more formal, we implement, then the most fundamental similarities and differences that are emphasized in the phenomenological method, in which components of the structures of the thematic principle in question are determined. How is the relationship between these two categories of components explained to each other, so that in the light of this explanation, the other points of commonality and differences of the matching devices are clearly and systematically identified? Therefore by using the context of the Axiomatic method and the capacity to formalize model theory in a limited circle in Islamic philosophy, an attempt was made to show that "undefined concepts" the most fundamental similarities and their "interpretations" or the emergence of differences in these interpretations are also the main factor of differentiation and creation of different devices, and the ratio of the two to each other is the "absolute" relation to the "constraint".
