Synopsis

For courses in Modern Philosophy (16th through 18th centuries).

Designed to be accessible to today's students, this anthology of readings in Modern Western philosophy (16th through 18th centuries) includes the key writings of the British Empiricists and Continental Rationalists, along with the work of Kant. It features the best available translations of texts―complete works or complete selections of works―which are both central to each philosopher's thought and are widely accepted as part of the “canon.” The selections are readable and accessible, while still being faithful to the original. Introductions to each philosopher, an abundance of drawings, diagrams, photographs, and a timeline keep students focused throughout.
