Leibniz and Hermeneutics
In recent centuries in the history of philosophy, Leibniz’s thought has been considered from a wide range of perspectives: as a decisive influence on modernity’s genesis or, as Kant’s predecessor, as key to contemporary logic’s development, and even in parallel to Nietzsche’s metaphysics of individuality.
