Leibniz University e il contributo del grande filosofo

La Leibniz University prende il nome dal grande filosofo Gottfried Leibniz

Gottfried Wilhellm von Leibniz scritto anche Leibnitz (Lipsia, 1 luglio 1646 – Hannover, 14 novembre 1716) è stato un filosofo, scienziato, matematico e glottoteta, diplomatico, bibliotecario e avvocato tedesco, di probabile origine slava, ma di sicura, recente, ascendenza sassone.

Ecco una sintetica bibliografia:

* De Arte Combinatoria (Sull'arte delle combinazioni, 1666)
* De Casibus Perplexis (1667)
* Hypothesis Physica Nova (Nuove ipotesi fisiche, 1671)
* Nova Methodus pro maximis et minimis, itemque Tangentibus ... (1684)
* Discours de métaphysique (1686)
* Explication de l'Arithmétique Binaire (Spiegazione dell'aritmetica binaria, 1705)
* Dynamica (1689)
* Nouveaux essais sur l'entendement humain (Nuovi saggi sull'intelletto umano, 1705)
* Théodicée (1710)
* Monadologia (1714)




Rif. LEIBNIZ UNIVERSITY

Leibniz University Institute of Arts and Science is a virtual learning place of global reach and spirit. As such it is open to all those who are interested in acquiring a knowledge free of the constrictions of a traditional institution. Leibniz educational approach is inspired by the classic Greek tradition of teaching liberally to all those who wanted to acquire knowledge without limitation of sex, age, previous education. In ancient times in Greece teaching took place in agorà which is to say in the main public square of a city. Students and teachers would sit down and discuss the subjects taught without any set framework. They would in turn speak and listen, argue and agree and exchange knowledge and expertise.
