Beschreibung
The Rise of Modern Philosophy is the fascinating story of the emergence of the great ideas and worldviews of modern thought. Kenny introduces us to some of the world's most original and influential thinkers, and shows us the way to an understanding of their famous works. The thinkers we meet include René Descartes, traditionally seen as the founder of modern philosophy; the great British philosophers Hobbes, Locke, Berkeley, and Hume; and the towering figure of Immanuel Kant, who perhaps more than any other made philosophy what it is today.
A selection of intriguing and beautiful illustrations offer a vivid evocation of the human and social side of philosophy. Anyone who is interested in how our understanding of ourselves and our world developed will find this a book a pleasure to read.
