En savoir plus sur le livre

This is the first truly authoritative and accessible history of philosophy encompassing both Western and Eastern traditions. It narrates the epic tale of philosophy, exploring the ideas and teachings of some of humanity's most creative minds. Since Bertrand Russell's classic work in 1945, there has been no comprehensive single-volume history of this intellectual journey. A.C. Grayling guides readers from the worldviews before the age of the Buddha, Confucius, and Socrates, through the dominance of Christianity in Europe, the Renaissance, and Enlightenment, to thinkers like Mill, Nietzsche, and Sartre, and contemporary philosophy. The narrative also includes a comparative survey of significant philosophical traditions from India, China, and the Persian-Arabic world. Accessible for students and enlightening for philosophy enthusiasts, it addresses key areas such as epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, aesthetics, logic, the philosophy of mind, language, political philosophy, and historical debates, featuring both renowned and lesser-known thinkers. Grayling prompts reflection on what we have learned from this body of thought and the progress still to be made. This landmark work stands out for its remarkable range and accessibility, making it a significant contribution to the field.
