Aristoteles’in Tarih Algısının İbn Haldûn’un Tarih Felsefesi İle Benzerliği Üzerine Bir İnceleme
A Study On The Similarity Of Aristotle's Perception Of History With Ibn Khaldūn's Philosophy Of History

Summary/Abstract: Philosophy of history, in its simplest definition, is the understanding of history with a philosophical mind, a kind of philosophizing or philosophizing. It is generally accepted that Voltaire was the first to articulate philosophy of history as a name and Vico was the first to institutionalize it as a discipline. Although this is generally accepted, in fact, long before these two names, first Aristotle and then Ibn Khaldūn, with various methods and discourses, put forward an approach that history could only gain value and meaning by taking on a philosophical nature. Thus, they contributed to the formation of the first nuclei of the philosophy of history. This study, which aims to compare Aristotle's and Ibn Khaldūn's conceptions of history or philosophies of history, reveals that both Aristotle and Ibn Khaldūn, apart from some simple nuances between them, agree on the idea that history can only be valuable by assuming a philosophical character.
