Hello there, Philosophy buffs! Although, Philosophy is almost a kind of strange deviation, I dare give you this HTML file about this funny subject, or at least give you works of others who know (but mostly knew) much more about it: Plato, Descartes, Locke and others. That collection below will get larger! Philosophy originated from two greek words (please excuse possibly wrong spelling but I'm a Czech and I know only the Czech transcriptions of the words...) "philein" and "sophia" (really, if my English spellings of these two Greek words aren't right, let me know). Both words put together mean something like "love to the wisdom" and I must say that it has only a little to do with looking for the sense of life. So, I'd better stop blabbing on and on. Here are the works I found thanks to the Online Books Page to which I gratefully link below. The Complete Works by Aristotle Laws by Plato Selected Works by Plato A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge by George Berkeley Discourse on Method by Rene Descartes Meditations on the First Philosophy by Rene Descartes Original in Latin English translation French translation An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding by David Hume (sometimes it is a bit erratic but you may have luck) Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics by Immanuel Kant An Essay Concerning Human Understanding by John Locke LINKS The Dynaweb Philosophy Aide - biographies of a few very important philosophers. The Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy - large thing and a must see for everyone who wants to be a real philosopher! Here is their etext collection I partly link to. Philosophy in Cyberspace - one of the sites you just have to visit - bibliographies, etexts etc. Doesn't include only philosophy, but also logic, aesthetics and more. A Dictionary of Philosophical Terms and Names - it has various levels and you can search it not only as a dictionary but also as a list of timelines, philosophers and much more.
