Around 10: 05 "must be an evangelical approach the letter of the Koran, that is to say, achieve the mind rather than the letter "We must do everything to separate Islam from Islamist his demons. " A. Meddeb

Observant Jews spend their lives studying the spirit of the law, they were able to separate a first reading of the archaic law of his higher sense, is based on a study of the mind of all texts.

If they have done is that Judaism invented "thou shalt not kill" "thou shalt love thy neighbor" "You do not seek revenge" ..

Thus they have a civil law of retaliation.

Christians have wanted to ignore almost complete by the letter, while retaining the spirit, but they were able to focus on the spirit of love of these texts, it is because Jesus was found written in black and white. ..

But Muslims ... how can they escape the letter of a text in which all reflect the life and soul of a warrior and ruthless man who has fought and killed, a text that nowhere is the word "love"?

Roger-Pol Droit

Historian Sylvain Gouguenheim rejects the idea that Greek science was transmitted to the West by the Muslim world. Amazing correct the prejudices of the time, the work of Sylvain Gouguenheim will spark debate and controversy. Its theme: the cultural lineage Western world-Muslim world. On this subject, the ideological and political issues loom large. Yet this most serious academic, professor of medieval history at the Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon, undermines a series of beliefs became dominant.

Presentation Editor
is generally considered that the West has discovered knowledge Greek Middle Ages through Arabic translations. Sylvain Gouguenheim undermines such an idea by showing that Europe has always maintained his contacts with the Greek world. Le Mont-Saint-Michel, in particular, is the center of an active work of translating the texts of Aristotle in particular, from the twelfth century. We discover at the same time as the other side of the Mediterranean, the Hellenization of the Islamic world, more limited than what is believed, was mainly the work of Christian Arabs. Even the field of Islamic philosophy (Avicenna, Averroes) remained in part outside the Greek spirit. Thus, it appears that the Hellenization of Christian Europe was primarily the result of the desire of Europeans themselves. If the term "roots" has a meaning for civilization, the roots of the European world are Greek, those of the Islamic world are not.
