Too long themselves unfairly dismissed as philosophical lightweights, proper justice may now be given to their views through this edition of their private correspondences with Leibniz. Appearing for the first time in English translation, the philosophical selections cover topics from the nature of substance to universal salvation and evidence the independence of the women's thought as they defend materialism and challenge Leibniz's conviction that God created the best possible world. The edition also boasts copious and highly informative editorial notes. It is a most welcome addition to The Other Voice in Early Modern Europe: Toronto series.\"\u003cbr\u003e   * Pauline Phemister, University of Edinburgh *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments xi\u003cbr\u003eManuscript Sources xii\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction 1\u003cbr\u003eThe Other Voice 1\u003cbr\u003ePersonal Relations: Sophie, Sophie Charlotte, and Leibniz 5\u003cbr\u003eA Brief Overview of the Correspondences 30\u003cbr\u003eLeibniz’s Presentation of His Philosophy in the Correspondences 34\u003cbr\u003eSophie and Philosophy 49\u003cbr\u003eNote on Texts and Translations 64\u003cbr\u003eTranslation 69\u003cbr\u003eAppendix 1: Fragmenta 418\u003cbr\u003eAppendix 2: Supplementary Texts 430\u003cbr\u003eBibliography 439\u003cbr\u003eIndex of Persons 455\u003cbr\u003eIndex of Names 460","brand":"University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037937271127,"sku":"9780772720863","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780772720863.jpg?v=1750938258","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/leibniz-and-the-two-sophies-the-philosophical-correspondence-volume-10-other-voice-in-early-modern-europe-the-toronto-9780772720863","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
