The most Orientalists went to a historical link between the Arab and Greek cultures of the general public and the Arab criticism, and the Greek criticism in all the cultures and knowledge that were at the time, such as philosophy, logic, medicine and literature. The research reached a number of results, including: Consideration of Arabic criticism period and the entry of the translated Greek material. For example, when his enlightenment melted, he used to live in Basra, when the foreign cultures began to flourish in Baghdad. The need to take into account the scientific material that raises the impact and vulnerability and if is it literary, scientific, or philosophical?

The translation of Aristotle's books was not clear to the Arabs, which made them unresponsive to these books, except for Qudama, who was introduced to them by means of the Syriac help.
