According to the compiler of "Avicenna's bibliography" the work was compiled during 25 years as it contains all the works related to Avicenna in European languages including translated and compiled books.
The
work's compiler, Ramin Khanbegi said that for the first time the book was
published in 2005 in England adding that currently the work is under
publication as new sources were added and as it was reviewed again.
He
added:" The bibliography has indexed all Avicenna's translated works which
were converted into 12 languages including European languages and languages
which contain Latin letters as well as books which were penned on him."
Khanbegi
has penned Rumi's bibliography in the same way as well. He believes that works
related to Avicenna are more than books related to Rumi. As Avicenna deeply
impacted the west philosophy such a thing occurred. Moreover he said that the
thoughts of this Muslim philosopher had a great role in developing west's
philosophy, a role which ignoring it is impossible.
He
went on to say that works which have been indexed in the work belong to the
14th century onwards and most of them could be found via British Library.
He
explained that he decided to compile the work while he was studying philosophy
and as he came to know about Avicenna's works in different languages and his
impact on west philosophy.
"Avicenna's
bibliography" is being published by Academic print center.
