The Discourse on Metaphysics is one of Leibnizs fundamental works.
Written around January 1686, it is the most accomplished systematic
expression of Leibniz's philosophy in the 1680s, the period in
which Leibniz's philosophy reached maturity. Leibniz's goal in the
Discourse is to give a metaphysics for Christianity; that is, to
provide the answers that he believes Christians should give to the
basic metaphysical questions. Why does the world exist? What is the
world like? What kinds of things exist? And what is the place of
human beings in the world? To this purpose Leibniz discusses some
of the most traditional topics of metaphysics, such as the nature
of God, the purpose of God in creating the world, the nature of
substance, the possibility of miracles, the nature of our
knowledge, free will, and the justice behind salvation and
damnation. This volume provides a new translation of the Discourse,
complete with a critical introduction and a comprehensive
philosophical commentary.
