Al-Mubashshir ibn Fātik was a scholar and patron of the Fatimid court in Cairo in the middle of the eleventh century. He studied medicine, astronomy, and history, and composed a lost History of the Fatimid Caliph al-Mustanṣir (r. 1036–1094). His only book to have survived, The Choicest Maxims and Best Sayings (Kitāb mukhtār al-ḥikam wa-maḥasin al-kalim or al-kilam), gives 20 biographies of some of the main Semitic, Greek, and Egyptian figures of wisdom and prophecy.<br/><br/> An important part of the biographical and gnomological materials may be compared with similar fragments attested in Greek literature. The Choicest Maxims was a medieval success, translated in at least four European languages from the thirteenth to the fifteenth centuries.
