"Thorough and lucid survey of Western philosophy from pre-Socratics to mid 20th century, major figures, currents, trends. Valuable section on contemporary philosophy;... Brevity and clarity of exposition..." -- Ethics.History of Philosophy:The idea of the Historiography of philosophy's history, its close relation to its history, according to Julian Marias is unlike that of science, where the subject and its history are distinct. Marias utilizes an engaging method of exploring philosophy, that proves indispensable to the reader.In studying the history of philosophy, philosophical problems are confronted as they have first arisen. Philosophy gets refreshed, when restated by outstanding thinkers as Marias, a leading historian of philosophy and philosophy instructor who masters the practice of philosophical reason seeking and applies it in his own illuminating survey. His study demonstrates not only that philosophy is historical, but that the comparative study of philosophy has a better approach through the critical rendering of its history.Historia de la Filosofia:Marias' Historia de la Filosofia, translated by Appelbaum and Strowbridge, is a lucid introduction to the history of Western philosophy. The book published in Spanish, at Madrid in 1941, has gone through 22 editions. It is widely accepted as the greatest work written in Spanish on the subject, covering almost all major philosophers and their schools from the Pre-Socratics to mid-twentieth century. As a one-volume textbook, Marias' work is a success, in four parts: Greek, Christian, Medieval and Contemporary Philosophy, which representing the broadest in thematic issues.
