✅ Summary :

Avner Ben-Zaken's Reading Hayy Ibn-Yaqzan: A Cross-Cultural History of Autodidacticism traces the intellectual history of the 12th-century philosophical tale Hayy Ibn-Yaqzan by Ibn Tufayl. The book examines how different interpretations and translations of the original Arabic novel were used in four distinct historical periods and how they influenced the development of the modern concept of autodidacticism, or self-teaching.
