Biographical notes

One of the major figures of the intellectual world of the thirteenth century eastern Mediterranean, Sirāj al-Dīn was born in Urūmīyah (Iran) and study with the famous Kamāl al- Dīn Ibn Yūnus in Mosul. He later travelled to Egypt, apparently receiving Ayyubid patronage and serving as an ambassador of the Ayyubid al-Malik al-Salih to the Emperor Frederick II. However, it was after moving to Konya in 655 AH [1257 CE] that the most productive period of al-Urmawī’s career began. He served as the chief qadi (qāḍī al-quḍāt) in Konya, and composed numerous treatises, above all on logic and philosophy.
