History of Western Philosophy

The pages of this section offer a narrative survey of the historical development of Western philosophy. Although some sections are nearly complete, this remains a work in progress; please be patient. For a different approach to the work of individual thinkers, please consult Assembled Philosophers, the Dictionary of Philosophical Terms and Names, or the Philosophy Timeline.

Please note that references to the on-line editions of philosophical texts will open in a second browser window, while the narrative (and other Philosophy Pages material) remains here. Some users find it helpful to resize the two windows so that they appear side-by-side on the screen.
