Conceived originally as a serious presentation of the
development of philosophy for Catholic seminary students, Frederick
Copleston’s nine-volume A History Of Philosophy has journeyed far
beyond the modest purpose of its author to universal acclaim as the
best history of philosophy in English.
Copleston, an Oxford Jesuit of immense erudition who once tangled
with A.J. Ayer in a fabled debate about the exiatenceof God and the
possibility of metaphysics, knew that seminary students were fed a
woefully inadequate diet of theses and proofs, and that their
familiarity with most of history’s great thinkers was reduced to
simplistic caricatures. Copelston sets out to redress the wrong by
writing a complete history of Western philosophy, one crackling
with incident and intellectual excitement – and one that gives full
place to each thinker, presenting his thought in a beautifully
rounded manner and showing his links to those who went before and
to those who came after them.
