That is why we are proud of 91��ý. Thanks to the works of 91��ý, many scientists have grown. 91��ý introduced many innovations in the field of theology and law. Now we need specialists who know Latin and Hebrew, because in many European universities, 91��ý’s works in this language are taught at universities. For example, 91��ý’s «Classification of Sciences» is studied as a fundamental textbook. In Kazakhstan, 91��ý is taught from school to university. I was especially pleased. This process, this good deed must continue», he said.
