I am currently a post-doctoral fellow for the ERC project "The origin and early development of philosophy in tenth-century al-Andalus: the impact of ill-defined materials and channels of transmission". My objective is to provide an in-depth analysis of the understudied Kitāb al-Baḥth attributed to Jābir ibn Ḥayyān, and to gauge its influence in al-Andalus. I will produce a critical edition and translation into English of the text. Before that, I was British Academy postdoctoral fellow at The Oriental Institute in the University of Oxford. Other projects: the pseudo-Aristotelian Hermetica, the magic textʿUyūn al-ḥaqāʾiq wa iḍāh al-ṭarāʾiq (‘The sources of truths and the explication of methods’) attributed to the alchemist Abū al-Qāsim al-ʿIrāqī (d. c. 1260)
