Solomon Ibn Gabirol

    Solomon ibn Gabirol was an 11th-century Andalusian poet and philosopher whose work embraced Neoplatonic thought. He penned over a hundred poems, alongside significant contributions to biblical exegesis, philosophy, ethics, and satire. Within the history of philosophy, he is recognized for his doctrine that all existence, encompassing soul and intellect, is constituted by matter and form—a concept known as "universal hylomorphism." Furthermore, his writings underscore the paramount importance of Divine Will.
