The affirmation of the existence of the best of all possible worlds is one of Leibniz’s best known and doubtless least understood theses. This work explains what it means, shows what theoretical foundations it rests on, and considers its implications on the metaphysical and moral level.
- By (author) Paul Rateau
Review - French L'affirmation de l'existence du meilleur des mondes possibles est l'une des theses leibniziennes les plus connues et sans doute l'une des plus mal comprises. Le but de ce livre est d'en expliquer le sens, de montrer sur quels fondements theoriques elle repose et d'envisager ses implications sur les plans metaphysique et moral. L'univers, parce que le meilleur, exclut-il toute forme de progres, notamment chez les esprits, ou bien ceux-ci sont-ils appeles a s'elever a des degres toujours plus hauts de perfection ? La raison, la conscience et la liberte qui leur sont propres leur conferent un statut et une place particuliers dans l'oeuvre de Dieu. Quelle doit etre la fin de leurs actions ? Quelle morale la these du meilleur monde possible promeut-elle ?
