In Search of the Sacred by SH Nasr - Just Released


Nasr's new book is now available. See Google Books for links to the publisher etc. here.

Recall this note from Mohammed Rustom at Carlton University:

"A book which will be useful for your purposes is the series of interviews on Nasr's thought originally published in Persian, and now forthcoming in English translation:

Nasr, Seyyed Hossein, and Ramin Jahanbegloo. In Search of the Sacred: A Conversation with Seyyed Hossein Nasr on His Life and Thought. Santa Barbara, Calif: Praeger ; ABC-CLIO, 2010.


I recall seeing in the Persian edition a very interesting question posed to Nasr concerning the influence of Corbin upon his thought. His answer shed a good deal of light on his relationship with Corbin."

The Persian version is,

Ramin Jahanbehloo and Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Dar just o juy-i amr-i qudsi: guft o gu (Tehran: Nashr-i jahan, 2006/7) WorldCat link.

I would very much appreciate it if anyone with access to this volume could supply us with the some information concerning Nasr's comments on Corbin - TC.
