Substance and Individuation in Leibniz

Autor J. A. Cover, John O'Leary-Hawthorne
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 sep 2008
This book offers a sustained re-evaluation of the most central and perplexing themes of Leibniz's metaphysics. In contrast to traditional assessments that view the metaphysics in terms of its place among post-Cartesian theories of the world, Jan Cover and John O'Leary-Hawthorne examine the question of how the scholastic themes which were Leibniz's inheritance figure - and are refigured - in his mature account of substance and individuation. From this emerges a sometimes surprising assessment of Leibniz's views on modality, the Identity of Indiscernibles, form as an internal law, and the complete-concept doctrine. As a rigorous philosophical treatment of a still-influential mediary between scholastic and modern metaphysics, this study will be of interest to historians of philosophy and contemporary metaphysicians alike.

Recenzii

Review of the hardback: 'J. A. Cover and John Hawthorne have written an important, and exciting, book … it is a stunning vindication of the value that 'philosophical' history of philosophy can have.' Mind
