Abu Nasr al-Farabi is an outstanding thinker of Central Asia and the entire Arab Muslim East of the early Middle Ages. He was not only the greatest philosopher - encyclopedist who substantiated the direction of Eastern peripatetism and created a whole philosophical system, but also a thinker who reflected and developed the main problems in his works characteristic for philosophical thought of that period.
Although in recent years a number of works by Abu Nasr al-Farabi have been published from Arabic to Russian, there are still many works that have not yet been accessible to the broad masses of the scientific community and not translated into modern languages. The study, in our opinion, of the unique, inaccessible, preserved in various cultural centers of the world works of Abu Nasr al-Farabi, will undoubtedly shed light on unknown aspects of philosophical thought of that period.
