Chinese name: Wisdom Museum mbth: Bayt al-Hikmah Nature: National comprehensive academic institution: founded by Translation Bureau, Academy of Sciences and Library, which is helpful to the cultivation of talents. This institution was founded by Khalifa Ma Meng (8 13 ~ 833) to organize and lead the national translation movement and academic research activities. On the basis of the Palace Translation Institute and the Royal Library established during the period of Khalifa Mansour and Harun Rashid, it was formally established by royal decree in about 830, becoming the first national comprehensive academic institution and higher education institution in the Islamic world. Its leaders are all knowledgeable and accomplished scholars. Yahya Ibn Massawai (777 ~ 857), a famous Christian physician and translator, was appointed as the first curator by Ma Meng, and Hounain Ibn Ishag (809 ~ 873), a Beijing-educated translator and scholar, was appointed as the director of the Translation Bureau, and was called "the translator's predecessor". Hua (780 ~ 850), a famous Muslim mathematician and astronomer, also served as the librarian and director of astronomy. Ma Meng has adopted the policy of advocating sponsorship, tolerance and academic contention, and hired dozens of knowledgeable scholars and translators from all over the world to do translation and research in the Hall of Wisdom. There are Arabs, non-Arabs, Muslims, Christians, Jews, Sabi and Suo Luoya Stoics. Since its establishment more than 200 years ago, the Museum of Institutional Contribution Wisdom has made great contributions to the prosperity and development of Arab-Islamic academic culture. Mainly: rescue the ancient Greek cultural relics (1), rescue and excavate the ancient Greek scientific and cultural heritage from the environment that is about to be destroyed, collect hundreds of originals and manuscripts of ancient Greek philosophy and scientific works from various places, and sort out, proofread and collect them. In order to collect rare books and arrange manuscripts, Ma Meng first sent the translator Salam to the Byzantine court in Constantinople to ask for rare Greek books, and then sent Hounain to visit Iraq, Syria and Egypt to collect ancient books. Wisdom Hall Library has tens of thousands of original and handwritten books on philosophy, natural sciences, humanities, literature and linguistics in Greek, ancient Syrian, Persian, Hebrew, Nepali, Sanskrit and Arabic, providing a large number of precious documents for scholars' translation, research and teaching. Make the translation movement enter *** (2) After the establishment of the Wisdom Pavilion, the translation work will be concentrated in the translation bureau, making the translation movement enter * * *. Scholars in the Translation Bureau are familiar with several languages. They are both translators and researchers. They translated Lu's ancient academic books on ancient Greece, Persia and India, and corrected, revised and retranslated the earlier translated works. At the same time of translation, a lot of work has been done in collating, annotating, asking questions, revising, summarizing and commenting. And I used the title to develop my original ideas, corrected and translated the misinterpreted works after many translations, and restored the original appearance. According to statistics, there are hundreds of famous works translated into Arabic by the translation bureau. Among them, the works of many famous Greek philosophers, doctors, mathematicians and astronomers, such as Aristotle, Plato, Hippocrates, Galen, Euclid, Ptolemy, Keraudy, Pliny and Plotinus, were all translated from Greek, about 20 works on history, language and literature were translated from Persian, and works on medicine, astronomy and mathematics were translated from Indian Sanskrit. About 20 works on agriculture and gardening were translated from Niebert, and dozens of works on literature, art and technology were translated from ancient Syrian and Hebrew. Academic reports and debates (3) Wisdom Hall often holds academic reports and debates on various topics, including philosophy, religion, astronomy, medicine and literature. At the debate, all factions expressed their opinions freely, and the academic atmosphere of free discussion was very strong. According to historical records, Wisdom Pavilion once held a theological debate between Christianity and Islam, and Ma Meng participated in this academic activity as a scholar. Christian Bishop Siudus made a generous speech and publicly stated his views that were contrary to Islamic teachings. Ma Meng and Islamic scholars didn't mind this, but expressed their views in an equal way. The Wisdom Pavilion also rewards scholars who write books and tell stories, and pays a lot of money for their achievements. Cultivating talents (4) The Wisdom Pavilion is also the center of cultivating talents. The museum is attached to the Observatory and the School of Medicine and Astronomy. Students from all over the world come to Wisdom Hall to learn from famous scholars. Some famous scholars went to Baghdad, such as philosopher Kennedy, writer, historical geographer Mesodi and mathematician Hua taught advanced courses in the Hall of Wisdom. The students trained by the Wisdom Museum have excellent academic performance and extensive reading, and countless scholars and translators have improved the scientific and cultural level of the empire. The religious discipline of Islam has also absorbed a lot of foreign ideological materials with the help of translation movement. From 1065 to 1067, after Nizamal Mulk, the prime minister of Seljuk Dynasty, founded Lower Niamia University in Baghdad, the Wisdom Museum was merged into the school and remained as an Islamic academic center. Later scholars praised the wisdom pavilion as "the source of science, the treasure house of wisdom and the temple of scholars" in medieval Arabia.
