Christian Jambet (French: [kʁistjɑ̃ ʒɑ̃bɛ]; born 23 April 1949, Algiers, French Algeria) is a French philosopher and Islamologist. He was a student of Henry Corbin. His work has engaged with Nizari Isma'ilism and has explored the thought of Avicenna, Mulla Sadra, and Nasir al-Din al-Tusi among others. In his treatment of these thinkers, he notes the lasting influence of figures associated with Neoplatonism such as Plotinus and Proclus (cf. Theology of Aristotle).
