The World as Active Power

Studies in the History of European Reason

image of The World as Active Power

This collection of essays discusses a central feature of European philosophy: the idea of a universal active power as the ultimate world-explanation. The development of this idea is traced from Plato onwards, as it traverses through Stoicism, Neoplatonism, medieval scholasticism, and modern rationalism to Hegel and Schopenhauer.
