Philosophy
NB1291 / The freest and radical thoughts of the mavericks! ■ Why the 17th century ". I am sorry, but the 17th century is my favorite. Above all, Descartes, Spinoza, Hobbes, and Leibniz. It is not so much a time when such a large scale of philosophers came out. I feel that philosophy at that time was much more independent than it is now. None of the big names I have just mentioned is a university professor. Descartes moved around the Netherlands, Spinoza was excommunicated by the Jewish order, and he was alone in the world. Hobbes was exiled in Paris to see the future of the revolution in his country, Leibniz flew around Europe and didn't warm his seat. They all more or less committed to the modern science of Galileo, were targeted by the theological faculty, and lived as if they were mavericks in the intellectual world. This rough or Nogata map, or that is the charm of their philosophy." (from the main text)
