The Problems of Philosophy discusses Bertrand Russell's views on philosophy and the problems that arise in the field. Russell's views focus on knowledge rather than the metaphysical realm of philosophy. The Problems with Philosophy revolves around the central question that Russell asks in his opening line of Chapter 1 - Is there any knowledge in the world which is so certain that no reasonable man could doubt it?

Story1
Rene Descartes, mathematician, scientist, and first "modern philosopher", wrote Meditations on First Philosophy, a six-part treatise first published in Latin in 1641, to deconstruct "belief" and, using reason and science, discuss the only things we can truly know for sure. Each of the six parts of this book represents six of Descartes’ meditations that occurred on six subsequent days, making it also, in no small part, an autobiographical piece of work.

Story0
Written in the first century B.C., On the Nature of Things (in Latin, De Rerum Natura) is a captivating poem in six books that seeks to convey Epicurean philosophy to a Roman audience. Through engaging digressions on the significance of philosophy in human life and a celebration of Epicurus, Lucretius crafts a profound treatise on atomic theory, the fallacies of religion, and various natural phenomena. With a perfect balance of philosophical insight and epic style, the poem dazzles with rich imagery and eloquent expression. (Summary by Leni)

Story0
On the Nature of Things, penned by Titus Lucretius Carus in the first century BCE, stands as one of the most significant surviving works on Epicurean philosophy and science from antiquity. Rather than a mere academic treatise, the original Latin text (De Rerum Natura) unfolds as an exquisite poem in hexameter, lauded for its stylistic beauty that influenced later writers like Ovid and Cicero. The English verse translation by William Ellery Leonard, crafted in the early twentieth century, faithfully captures both the vocabulary and meter of Elizabethan poetry, alternating between pentameter and...

Though uncompromising, polemical and argumentative, Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) made a lasting impact on 19th-century culture as a multi-talented man of letters. And though his lengthy history of the French Revolution proved his major scholarly legacy, On Heroes, Hero-Worship and the Heroic in History remains perhaps his most popular and accessible work. It presented his deep-seated belief that ‘Universal History, the history of what man has accomplished in this world, is at bottom the History of the Great Men who have worked here’.

David Hume, a luminary of 18th-century Scottish intellectual circles, left an indelible imprint on philosophy and theology. His profound speculations arguably held the most significant influence of his era, rivalled only by Adam Smith in a certain sphere. Humes impact was not immediately recognized, with time needed to dispel misconceptions and reveal his true intellectual stature. Now, over a century later, we can appreciate his work and its repercussions more objectively. Hume is undeniably a grand and autonomous thinker, and this text examines his philosophical approach as an attempt to ...

In Reflections on War and Death, we delve into Freuds provocative assertion that those who suppress their impulses may be mere hypocrites, often unaware of their duplicity. Freud argues that modern civilization nurtures this hypocrisy, leading to a greater number of civilized hypocrites than genuinely cultured individuals. He provocatively questions whether some degree of hypocrisy is essential for the maintenance of civilization itself. When this distorted version of civilization, which enforces obedience among its citizens, enters into war, Freud expresses both pain and understanding at its ...
