Averroes O El Secretario del Diablo [Spanish]

By Gilbert Sinoué

Born in 1126 in Cordoba, Abu-l-Walid Muhammad would be elevated by the new lords of the Peninsula, the Almohads, as one of their great sages and courtiers, but the audacity of his thinking would eventually cost him everything he had achieved. Centuries later, his work is still more alive than ever. His name was Averroes. A firm detractor of the rigidity of dogmas and critical of the use that a few made of sacred texts, he would be accused by religious leaders of supreme heresy. Treated as an outcast, threatened, hated and condemned to oblivion by his contemporaries, he would live in hiding, immersed in poverty, until he met his death at the age of seventy-two in Marrakech. The fictional autobiography of the greatest thinker of Western culture, branded as subversive by both the Church and Islam, whose audacity was to approach faith from reason.
