The contribution of the great scholars and thinkers of the East, and above all of Central Asia, to the development of world science and spirituality is rightly considered one of the most striking phenomena of medieval human history. At a time when Europe was experiencing a period of intellectual stagnation, powerful scientific and philosophical thought flourished in the East, at the crossroads of transcontinental highways, laying the foundation for the future European Renaissance. In this study, the author seeks to show that this flourishing was not accidental, but was the natural result of a unique synthesis of cultures, a developed economy and state support for knowledge in Central Asia in the 9th–15th centuries.
