Academic interests of the scientists involved in this division embrace the whole variety of research in history of Western-European philosophy, such as the genesis of philosophy, ancient and medieval philosophy, Renaissance philosophy, philosophy of Modernity, and contemporary philosophy (until the end of XIX century), as well as the history of the Arab and Eastern philosophical traditions of ancient Persia, Iran, India, China and Japan.

Goran was translated into Japanese, the book “Early Greek philosophy and Ancient Iran” by M. N. Wolf was translated into Farsi.
