"The new three-volume edition of Leibniz's Philosophical Papers offers the most comprehensive English-language presentation to date of Leibniz's writings, drawing directly from manuscripts in Latin, French, and German."
"Leibniz arrived in Hanover in late 1676, after spending four years in Paris immersed in mathematics, with an extraordinarily fertile and restless mind, bursting with ideas for projects."
"Among the many projects he worked on at this time were a new inventive logic designed to generate new truths, a universal language, and a symbolic script capable of facilitating discoveries."
A new three-volume edition of Leibniz's Philosophical Papers has been published, providing the most extensive English-language collection of his writings. This edition includes 2000 pages of material, much of which has never been translated into English or published in any language. It covers a crucial period in Leibniz's development, highlighting his innovative ideas in logic, language, and knowledge organization. His projects during this time included a new logic, a universal language, a symbolic script, and a rational approach to physics and law, reflecting his expansive intellectual pursuits.
