Classics of Western Philosophy

Steven M. Cahn
4.9/5 (11558 ratings)
Description:In keeping with those virtues which have made it the leading collection of its kind, the fifth edition of Classics of Western Philosophy features unabridged works (or substantive selections) in preeminent and thoughtfully annotated translations and editions. As before, Introductions by a team of distinguished scholars including William Mann, Steven Cahn, Patricia W. Kitcher, George Sher, Derk Pereboom, Philip W. Kitcher, Charles Guignon, Israel Scheffler, and Jonathan Vogel offer authoritative guidance to the philosophers and their work. And now coverage extends into the twentieth century, culminating in a judicious-and nontechnical-selection of philosophical writings that are both classic in their own right and representative of main currents of recent philosophical thought.Contents:Plato, "Meno," "Euthyphro," "Apology," "Crito," "Phaedo," and "Republic" (abridged)Aristotle, "Categories" (Chapters 1-5), "Physics" (Book II), "On the Soul" (abridged), "Metaphysics" (abridged), and "Nicomachean Ethics" (abridged)Epicurus, "Letter to Menoeceus," and "The Principle Doctrines"Epictetus, "Encheiridion"Augustine, "Confessions" (Book XI)Anselm, "Proslogion," "Gaunilo's Reply on Behalf of the Fool," and "Anselm's Reply to Gaunilo"Thomas Aquinas, "Summa Theologica" (Questions I, II)René Descartes, "Meditations on First Philosophy"Thomas Hobbes, "Leviathan" (abridged)Baruch Spinoza, "Ethics" (Parts I, II)Gottfried Leibniz: "Discourse on Metaphysics" and "Monadology"John Locke, "An Essay Concerning Human Understanding" (abridged)George Berkeley: "A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge" (Introduction, Sections 1-33) and "Three Dialogues Between Hylas and Philonous"David Hume: "An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding," "A Treatise of Human Nature ('Of Personal Identity')," and "Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion"Immanuel Kant, "Critique of Pure Reason" (abridged) and "Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals"G.W.F.
