History of Western Philosophy: Supplementary and Revised Edition

I think this book is much more objective and worth reading. The author's point of view is only mentioned in the short preface, that is, the author's evaluation should be avoided as much as possible in the history of philosophy. The development process of the history of philosophy itself is the best evaluation of each philosophical school. He objectively reflects the views of each philosopher without personal bias or distinction between superior and inferior. His introduction to the philosophical viewpoints and philosophical schools of each period is relatively comprehensive. It not only contains the main theme, but also reflects the contention of a hundred schools of thought. Especially in philosophical schools such as metaphysics and rationalism, we should try our best to achieve continuity and inheritance, clear context, clear views, and no sloppiness.

As a history of philosophy written by a historian of philosophy, it is extremely excellent in terms of its introduction to the thoughts of various philosophers. It tries its best to let the philosophers speak for themselves. To be honest, I don't know how well it is done because I have not read the works of these philosophers in detail and systematically. However, in terms of the richness of the material, Professor Shali not only introduced the great works of philosophers It also has a more detailed description of the environment and historical soil in which these philosophers' thoughts grew up, which really confirms the view: no idea comes out of thin air, and any new idea will be influenced by the predecessors and the limitations of the times. Although it sometimes seems a little cumbersome, it is really suitable for a novice like me. Thank you🙏🏻

This book is very attractive to me, and I have learned a lot from it. "Nothing happens without a cause. Everything happens for a reason, and it is inevitable. Especially things that exist are not more real than things that do not exist. I highly recommend everyone to read this book. It not only helped me learn a lot of knowledge, but also made my thinking clear. It is a book that is easily translated and easy to understand. It can also be said that it is a good teaching material and reference book. The book has a rich introduction to the academic system, and the content is relatively comprehensive, suitable for beginners.

A collection of works that appeared in the 5th century AD was mistakenly attributed to the work of Dionysius, a judge of the Supreme Court of Athens in ancient Greece (Dionysius is considered the first bishop of Athens), but this book shows the spirit of Neoplatonism. This collection aroused great interest and had a profound influence on medieval thought. Among those fascinated by the mystical pantheism of this collection was a man named Eriugena, who translated the collection into Latin and built a philosophical system based on it. In 810 AD, Eriugena was born in Ireland, educated in Irish schools, and was appointed principal of the court school in Paris by Charles the Bald.

History of Western Philosophy: Supplementary Revisions Written by Frank Tilly Let me look at my reading time. It feels like I have been reading this book for a long time. When reading other books, saying that one does not ask for a deep understanding can be regarded as self-effacing. When reading this kind of book, saying that one does not ask for a deep understanding is completely realistic. Mr. Tilly describes the general changes in the entire history of Western philosophy in a more objective and concise language. As for the Eastern ones, you can only find other books.
