Description

This scholarly work by Pauline Phemister challenges conventional Anglo-American interpretations of Leibniz's philosophy, arguing that he was not purely an idealist but rather advanced a synthesis of idealism and materialism. By re-examining Leibniz's texts without idealist assumptions, Phemister reveals the material dimensions of his metaphysics that have long been overlooked. The book explores how Leibniz's ontology posits indivisible, living, animal-like corporeal substances as the genuine metaphysical foundations of reality, rather than treating physical bodies as illusory. Published by Springer as part of The New Synthese Historical Library series (volume 58), this volume offers a comprehensive reassessment of Leibniz's approach to the natural world and challenges readers to reconsider fundamental questions about the relationship between mind, matter, and existence in his philosophical system.
