  • François Duchesneau, Leibniz, Le Vivant Et L'organisme, Paris: J. Vrin
    François Duchesneau, Leibniz, le vivant et l’organisme, Paris: J. Vrin, 2010. 348 p. Reviewed by Justin E. H. Smith, Concordia University or some time, this reviewer has been championing the translation into English of François Duchesneau’s many books on the natural philosophy of Leibniz. GreaterF availability of his work in the English-speaking world, along with that of Michel Fichant and, more recently, the contributions of Anne-Lise Rey, Raphaële Andrault, and Arnaud Pelletier, would in combination play a powerful role in helping scholars to form a richer picture of Leibniz’s natural-philosophical model of the corporeal world, and of this model’s centrality to his deepest and most mature philosophical project. With the publication of his most recent book, Duchesneau has reconfirmed the urgency of learning about this side of Leibniz. The principal purpose of this review will be simply to summarize the recent book and to impart in a synoptic way the picture of Leibniz it draws for readers who may not have the time or capacity to work through the French text. If I am successful, this synopsis might then serve as an argument for the eventual publication of a translation. Following this, I will conclude by raising a few questions that I see as arising from this rich study, questions that might in turn serve as the germs of future research along the path Duchesneau has carved. Duchesneau’s book has six principal theses. First, he argues that Leibniz is committed to the need for a distinct philosophical account of the living being within the order of nature, as well as of the integrated and functional character of the micromachines that compose it.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In May 2006, at a seminar on Leibniz in Uppsala, with Lilli Alanen and John Carriero, I had the great pleasure and honour of making acquaintance with Olli Koistinen. I made a remark on Kant’s metaphysics, which Olli did not think was particularly accurate. But to my surprise, Olli later chatted me up, and it turned out that he had taken keen interest in Kant’s lectures on metaphysics.

McDonough 0. Introduction In the opening paragraphs of his now classic paper “Leibniz and the Foundations of Physics: The Middle Years,” Daniel Garber suggests that Leibniz must seem something of a paradox to contemporary readers (1985, 27). On the one hand, Leibniz is commonly held to have advanced a broadly idealist metaphysics according to which the world is ultimately grounded in mind-like monads whose properties are exhausted by their perceptions and appetites. On such a picture, physical bodies would seem to be nothing more than the perceptions or thoughts (or contents thereof) enjoyed by immaterial substances.1 On the other hand, it is generally recognized (if perhaps less clearly) that Leibniz was also a prominent physicist in his own day and that he saw his work in physics as supporting, and being supported by, his metaphysics.2 But how, in light of his idealism, could that be? How could Leibniz think that his pioneering work in physics might lend support to his idealist metaphysics, and conversely that his Earlier versions of this essay were presented to audiences at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Yale University, Brown University, and Dartmouth College.

  • Leibniz on Human Finitude, Progress, and Eternal Recurrence: the Argument of the ‘Apokatastasis’ Essay Drafts and Related Texts
    Leibniz on Human Finitude, Progress, and Eternal Recurrence: The Argument of the ‘Apokatastasis’ Essay Drafts and Related Texts Forthcoming in Oxford Studies in Early Modern Philosophy DAVID FORMAN In a draft essay from around 1701, Leibniz argues that because humanity can express only a finite number of unique statements, it will eventually run out of new things to say. From this, Leibniz draws the further conclusion that if humanity lasts long enough, ‘there must also be a time when the same deeds would return and when nothing would be done that had not been done before, for deeds provide matter for speech’ (F 58). This is a remarkable conclusion, its conditional formulation notwithstanding: it recalls the cyclical cosmology, defended by ancient Stoics and Platonists, in which future world ages will be indistinguishable from the present one. And far from distancing this conclusion from such ancient antecedents, Leibniz invites us to consider it as their rehabilitation: ‘Indeed, there would necessarily be certain periods like the Platonic year, such that in the course of one age exactly the same things would be done, as far as the senses are concerned, as were done before in another age’ (F 56–58). One reason that this apparent rehabilitation of an ancient cyclical cosmology is remarkable is that it stands in such obvious conflict with the sacred history and prophecy contained in Christian Scripture, which contains several unique events: for example, the fall of mankind into corruption, the incarnation of God in the person of Jesus, and the redemption of the elected in the world to come after the destruction of the present world.

  • The Conflict of Philosophy
    THE CONFLICT OF PHILOSOPHY A HISTORY OF REASON DISORDER RAWAA MAHMOUD HUSSAIN Publishing Partner: IJSRP In Publication Partner: International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications (ISSN: 2250-3153) THE CONFLICT OF PHILOSOPHY A HISTORY OF REASON DISORDER RAWAA MAHMOUD HUSSAIN Publishing Partner: IJSRP Inc. www.ijsrp.org Publication Partner: International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications (ISSN: 2250-3153) Preface I have been inquiring about the ongoing nature of human relations and wondering: Whether the conflict represents a fundamental value that determines the international relationships or is there a way to the possibility of human coexistence and world peace? Today, in my work, “The Conflict of Philosophy,” I am trying to discover this idea in a new and different field, Philosophy. This book has been written and designed to collect the philosophy and its history as a methodology of research to study the conflict of philosophy. It is started with an introduction to understanding Samuel Huntington’s project of the Clash of Civilizations. It also maintains to search for the shadows and historical, social, cultural, scientific and religious extensions of this idea: Galileo Galilei (1564–1642): The message of science, the creation of the universe, Religion and life, the death of philosophy, and the turbulence of reason. I have also started, in chapter 1, with the most prominent eras in philosophy, which is the era of Greek philosophy, represented by Socrates (470/469 – 399 BC), Plato (c. 427 – 347 BCE), and Aristotle (c. 384 – 322 BCE). In chapter 2, I moved directly to the modern philosophy stated by Francis Bacon (1561–1626) and René Descartes (1596–1650).

The task of writing a piece on why Leibniz continues to fascinate and perplex us 300 years after his death is one I approach with both enthusiasm and hesitation. I begin with a question? Can our traditional attitude towards the canonical philosophers of the past survive the innovations in historical research that have taken place over the last half century? The growth of research in the historiography of philosophy, the opportunities for inviquires, sharing of knowledge through conferences, discussion, and publications that have been made possible by modern academic life have brought the figures we study closer to us.

  • Leibniz's Theory of Propositional Terms: a Reply to Massimo
    Leibniz’s Theory of Propositional Terms: A Reply to Massimo Mugnai Marko Malink, New York University Anubav Vasudevan, University of Chicago n his contribution to this volume of the Leibniz Review, Massimo Mugnai provides a very helpful review of our paper “The Logic of Leibniz’s Generales IInquisitiones de Analysi Notionum et Veritatum.” Mugnai’s review, which contains many insightful comments and criticisms, raises a number of issues that are of central importance for a proper understanding of Leibniz’s logical theory. We are grateful for the opportunity to explain our position on these issues in greater depth than we did in the paper. In his review, Mugnai puts forward two main criticisms of our reconstruction of the logical calculus developed by Leibniz in the Generales Inquisitiones. Both of these criticisms relate to Leibniz’s theory of propositional terms. The first concerns certain extensional features that we ascribe to the relation of conceptual containment as it applies to propositional terms. The second concerns the syntactic distinction we draw between propositions and propositional terms in the language of Leibniz’s calculus. In what follows, we address each of these criticisms in turn, beginning with the second. Propositions and Propositional Terms One of the most innovative aspects of the Generales Inquisitiones is Leibniz’s in- troduction into his logical theory of the device of propositional terms. By means of this device, Leibniz proposed to represent propositions of the form A is B by terms such as A’s being B. Leibniz regarded these propositional terms as abstract terms (abstracti termini, A VI 4 987), with the important qualification that they are merely “logical” or “notional” abstracts (A VI 4 740; cf.
