Abstract

In this second article on medieval Arabic medical discussions on sleep, I show that Ibn Sīnā's pneumatic paradigm of sleep opened up new research pathways for subsequent physicians in Islamic societies. Opposing those who posit a decline in scientific activity post-1200 in these societies, I show that Ibn al-Nafīs (d. 1288), Ibn al-Quff (d. 1286), and Quṭb al-Dīn al-Shīrāzī (d. 1311), among others, raised and answered new questions to highlight the (possible) active role played by the brain in sleep onset and the strengthening of certain brain activities during sleep. They also continued to investigate the (three) stages of sleep and paid attention to different breathing patterns, in addition to pulse, during each stage. Finally, they also applied the pneumatic paradigm in new ways to understand the broader impact of certain medical conditions on sleep.

摘要

在关于中世纪阿拉伯人关于睡眠的医学讨论的第二篇文章中，我表明伊本·西那的气动睡眠范式为伊斯兰社会后来的医生开辟了新的研究途径。我反对那些认为这些社会在 1200 年后科学活动下降的人，我表明伊本·纳菲斯（卒于 1288 年）、伊本·古夫（卒于 1286 年）和库特卜丁·希拉济（卒于 1311 年）等人提出并回答了新的问题，强调了（可能）大脑在睡眠开始和睡眠期间某些大脑活动增强中所起的积极作用。他们还继续研究睡眠的（三个）阶段，并在每个阶段注意不同的呼吸模式，除了脉搏之外。最后，他们还以新的方式应用气动范式来理解某些医疗状况对睡眠的更广泛影响。
