À propos de ce contenu audio

Dive into the profound thoughts of the esteemed philosopher and polymath, Leibniz, in this concise yet impactful treatise on metaphysics. Here, he explores the intricate relationship between God and universal order, delves into the essence of individual substances—including spirits—and examines the connection between the soul and the physical body. Engaging with the ideas of previous scholastic thinkers and even Plato, Leibniz tackles complex themes such as free will, sin in the light of Gods omniscience, and critiques Descartes interpretations within the context of physical laws. He emphasizes the significance of both final and efficient causes in mechanics and reflects on the origins of knowledge. Concluding with a powerful assertion about the role of Christ in establishing the city of God and the divine monarchy, this discussion promises to enrich your understanding of metaphysical concepts.
