ابن بصال الطليلي (ت. 499 ه 1106 م)‎ حياته العلمية و آثاره التجريبية

Abstract EN

The Andalusian Tawaif kings competed in taking care of the capitals of their new small states.

They also competed in bringing scholars and scientists closer to them.

They showered them with immense gifts and encouraged them to research.

They established orchards around their palaces.

And they entrusted them with the task of planting and taking care of these gardens.

- It appeared that the Andalusian agricultural school avant- gardes absorbed the conspicuous scientific thought prevalent in Andalus during the period of tawaif kings, and their deeper understanding of agricultural books after bringing their originals from the East or simply translating them.

All these contributed in creating a scientific atmosphere resulting in the emergence of a critical trend which took an empirical dimension helping in writing.

- And among the Andalusian agricultural school vanguards we find the Toledian Ibn Bassal whom the references supplied us with little about his biography and methods of research.

Thus this modest attempt tries to highlight some aspects of his biography
