Arabic-Islamic philosophy
Unfortunately, there is very little good literature in Europe that deals with Arabic-Islamic philosophy. "Western" research is extremely Eurocentric and full of prejudices. If at all, Semitic philosophy is only accorded an intermediate position between ancient times/Hellenism and the European Renaissance/Enlightenment. However, Arab culture was the cultural high culture in the period of European late antiquity and the Middle Ages and the true heirs of Hellenism, which was by no means as "European" as the Germanic tribes would like it to be. The sphere of influence stretches from the Indus to Spain and it is very wrong to dismiss this treasure of humanity as "barbaric", while at the time people were sitting on the proverbial trees and knew nothing at all. Other Semitic cultures, such as the Hebrews, only wrote storybooks during that time. The only important European philosopher who appreciated the merit of the Arabs was #Nietzsche, so you know what you have.
