Publisher's Synopsis
Discourse On Metaphysics Correspondence With Arnauld And Monadology is a book written by the philosopher and mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. This large print edition includes three of Leibniz's most important works on metaphysics and philosophy. The Discourse On Metaphysics is a treatise in which Leibniz discusses the nature of reality and the existence of God. He argues that the world is made up of individual substances, or monads, which are self-contained and self-sufficient. Leibniz also explores the concept of pre-established harmony, which suggests that the universe is pre-determined and that everything that happens is part of a divine plan.The Correspondence With Arnauld is a series of letters exchanged between Leibniz and the French philosopher Antoine Arnauld. In these letters, the two philosophers debate a range of topics related to metaphysics, including the nature of substance, causation, and the mind-body problem.The Monadology is a short treatise in which Leibniz further explains his theory of monads. He argues that these individual substances are the building blocks of the universe and that they are all interconnected. Leibniz also explores the idea of perception and how it relates to the monads.Overall, Discourse On Metaphysics Correspondence With Arnauld And Monadology provides a comprehensive overview of Leibniz's philosophical ideas and his contributions to the field of metaphysics. This large print edition makes the text accessible to a wider audience and is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
