    Paul Halsall at Fordham University presents public domain educational texts, such as Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural philosophy. modern History Sourcebook Isaac Newton The Mathematical Principles of Natural philosophy  
    http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/mod/newton-princ.html
    
    Extractions: RULE 1 We are to admit no more causes of natural things, than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances. To this purpose the philosophers say, that Nature does nothing in vain, and more is in vain, when less will serve; for Nature is pleased with simplicity, and affects not the pomp of superfluous causes. RULE IV In experimental philosophy we are to look upon propositions collected by general induction from phenomena as accurately or very nearly true, notwithstanding any contrary hypotheses that may be imagined, till such time as other phenomena occur, by which they may either be made more accurate, or liable to exceptions.

44. Avineri: Hegel's Theory Of The Modern State, 5: Modern Life And Social Reality
    An excerpt from chapter 5 of this work. Uses some of Hegel's littleknown early works to analyze his view of property.  
    http://www.marxists.org/reference/subject/philosophy/works/ot/avineri5.htm
    
    Extractions: In the System der Sittlichkeit and the two versions of the Realphilosophie Hegel introduces for the first time his theory of what he would later call 'objective spirit', though the Realphilosophie contains also much else. Both sets of texts remained unpublished in Hegel's own lifetime. The System der Sittlichkeit, composed around 1802-3, was published in its entirety for the first time by Lasson in 1913, though an earlier incomplete version was published by Mollat in 1893. The two versions of lectures known as Realphilosophie I and II, delivered by Hegel at Jena University in 1803-4 and 1805-6 respectively, were published by Hoffmeister for the first time in the early 1930s. A careful analysis of these two sets of texts, unknown to most of Hegel's traditional commentators, shows that while Hegel's main concern was always the attempt to achieve a comprehensive system of general philosophical speculation, his preoccupation with problems of a social and political nature consistently remained as the focus of his theoretical interest. These texts also point to a remarkable continuity in his political thought and clearly show that the political philosophy of the Philosophy of Right cannot be understood in terms of a mere justification of the Restoration of 1815, since most of its themes and ideas go back to Hegel's thought during the Jena period.

47. Bohm, Bell, And Boom! Quantum Mechanics And The End Of Modern Dualism
    From History and philosophy of Science, Fall, 1997. By Dr. Ess.  
    http://www.drury.edu/faculty/ess/philsci/bell.html
    
    Extractions: Notes on David Peat, Einstein's Moon: Bell's Theorem and the Curious Quest for Quantum Reality History and Philosophy of Science - Fall, 1997 - Dr. Ess Outline: "Bohm, Bell - and Boom! The End of Modern Dualism" The End of Cartesian Dualism: Physics (re)discovers Philosophy over against Cartesian and especially 19th ct. positivist dualisms which separate physics and philosophy - the emergence of quantum mechanics forces physicists to be become philosophers again. Indeed, the logic of complementarity which q.m. requires ripples into a larger (re)turn to complementary relationships between physics, philosophy, and religion. (In other terms: Cartesian dualism defines both 19th ct. positivism and fundamentalism as "mirror images" of one another: each agree that only one mode of knowing can be true - and the alternative mode(s) must be false: Positivism Fundamentalism ("calculative") reason (= natural science)

    MPhil (Master of philosophy) School of modern Languagesat the University of Newcastle upon Tyne.  
    http://www.ncl.ac.uk/sml/postgrad/mphil.php
    
    Extractions: university of newcastle upon tyne / modern languages / postgraduate / 1 year full time, 2 years part time The MPhil is a research degree designed for students who do not require formal training. It is entirely based upon research leading to the completion of a thesis of not more than 50,000 words, which is submitted at the end of the Summer Research Semester in the first year of study for full-time students, and in the second year of study for part-time students. An MPhil thesis is shorter and more limited in scope than a PhD thesis - the PhD thesis should show substantial evidence of original scholarship and contain material worthy of publication, or adaptation for publication. You are normally required to pass an oral examination with the external examiner(s) after presentation of your thesis. The usual route to doctoral study is via the MLitt programme . However, students who register for an MPhil degree may transfer (but are not obliged) to PhD status in the second year, conditional upon satisfactory progress.

You are eligible for this programme if you have completed either an MA or an MLitt in your chosen discipline; you may also be able to register after substantial professional experience. You are normally required to pass an oral examination with the external examiner(s) after presentation of the thesis.

50. The Pre-Kantian Modern Philosophy Witch Project - Gottfried Leibniz
    Some basic notes on the structure of the Leibnizian system, presented by students at Covenant College.  
    http://tjaguar.tripod.com/phi202/leibniz.html
    
    Extractions: THE PROJECT: To show there is no logical difficulty with maintaining God's omnipotence and the presence of evil. This man put the "fried" in "Gottfried." Endeavoring to solve the Problem of Evil, Leibniz argues that this really is the best of all possible worlds. To make this work, Leibniz invents Monads. For class, we read from the Theodicy and the Monadology Theodicy: Leibniz wants to show that there's no contradicition between God being all good and all powerful, yet evil and suffering exist in the world. Admirably, he does not take the "Free Will Defense" (God chooses to not be in control of everything). Instead, he argues that it's really for the best that evil and suffering exist, even though it may not appear that way to us. Rather than set forth a thesis, Leibniz takes objections to a sovereign, good God and an evil world and answers them. The keystone of his argument is that this world, complete with evil and suffering, is the best world. There are a number of other, interesting side notes (like the fact that "good" animals may outweigh the evil of "evil" humans), but the best of all possible worlds argument is the Mac Daddy. The argument goes that evil and suffering in the world actually can produce greater good that we may not be able to perceive. A world with no evil and suffering would not be as adequate as this one. Central to the debate on this question is: Is Leibniz suggesting that God was forced to make the world this way in order for it to be "the best," or does the fact that God chose to make this world this way automatically make it "the best" regardless of how we might evaluate it with our limited understanding?

53. About The First Spiritual Temple
    A NonDenominational Christian Church, deeply embedded within the philosophy of Spiritualism. This page is a good introduction to the works of Allan Kardec.  
    http://www.fst.org/kardec.htm
    
    Extractions: Allan Kardec is considered the father of Spiritism as compared to Spiritualism in France. His real name was Hypolyte Leon Denizard Rivail. The pseudonym originated from mediumistic communications. Both the names "Allan" and "Kardec" were said to have been his names in previous incarnations. Not very much is known about Allan Kardec's early years within the Spiritualist Movement, but his impact upon the Movement is profound. He is best known for his classic, Le Livre des Esprits (The Spirits' Book), first published in 1856. Within this book is expounded a new theory of human life and destiny. According to an article by researcher, Alexander Aksakof, in The Spiritualist

56. Spinoza: The First Modern Pantheist.
    Outline of pantheism in Spinoza's philosophy.  
    http://members.aol.com/Heraklit1/spinoza.htm
    
    Extractions: Are you a pantheist? See the Scientific Pantheism site. Spinoza was born in Amsterdam in 1632, into a family of Jewish emigrants fleeing persecution in Portugal. He was trained in Talmudic scholarship, but his views soon took unconventional directions which the Jewish community - fearing renewed persecution on charges of atheism - tried to discourage. Spinoza was offered 1000 florins to keep quiet about his views, but refused. At the age of 24, he was summoned before a rabbinical court, and solemnly excommunicated. Spinoza refused all rewards and honours, and gave away to his sister his share of his father's inheritance - keeping only a bedstead for himself. He earned his living as a humble lens-grinder. He died, in February 1674, of consumption, probably aggravated by fine glass dust inhaled at his workbench. His philosophy is summarized in the Ethics , a very abstract work, which openly expresses none of the love of nature that might be expected from someone who identified God with nature. And Spinoza's starting point is not nature or the cosmos, but a purely theoretical definition of God. The work then proceeds to prove its conclusions by a method modelled on geometry, through rigorous definitions, axioms, propositions and corollaries. No doubt in this way Spinoza hoped to build his philosophy on the solidest rock, but the method, as well as some of the arguments and definitions, are often unconvincing.

    http://www.muslimphilosophy.com/rep/H008.htm
    
    Extractions: There are a number of major trends in modern Islamic philosophy. First, there is the challenge of the West to traditional Islamic philosophical and cultural principles and the desire to establish a form of thought which is distinctive. From the mid-nineteenth century onwards, Islamic philosophers have attempted to redefine Islamic philosophy; some, such as Hasan Hanafi and Ali Mazrui, have sought to give modern Islamic philosophy a global significance and provide an agenda for world unity. Second, there is a continuing tradition of interest in illuminationist and mystical thought, especially in Iran where the influence of Mulla Sadra and al-Suhrawardi has remained strong. The influence of the latter can be seen in the works of Henry Corbin and Seyyed Hossein Nasr; Mulla Sadra has exercised an influence over figures such as Mahdi Ha'iri Yazdi and the members of Qom School, notably Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. The philosopher Abdul Soroush has introduced a number of concepts from Western philosophy into Iran. Finally, there have been many thinkers who have adapted and employed philosophical ideas which are originally non-Islamic as part of the normal philosophical process of seeking to understand conceptual problems. This is a particularly active area, with a number of philosophers from many parts of the Islamic world investigating the relevance to Islam of concepts such as Hegelianism and existentialism. At the same time, mystical philosophy continues to exercise an important influence. Modern Islamic philosophy is thus quite diverse, employing a wide variety of techniques and approaches to its subject.

60. Brock's Philosophy Page
    A collection of philosophical essays on 20th century metaphysics and early modern philosophy.  
    http://philarete.home.mindspring.com/philosophy/index.html
    
    Extractions: Metaphysics Artifacts, Matter, and Persistence I argue that artifacts are strictly identical with the masses of matter that constitute them. Mereological Nihilism and the Limits of Paraphrase I argue that the mereological nihilist, one who denies that composition ever occurs, must resort to an ontology of sets in order to paraphrase away apparent reference to composite objects in everyday speech. Essentialism and the Grandfather Paradox I argue that essentialism of origins implies that David Lewis's proposed solution to one of the paradoxes of time travel does not always work. Williams on Personal Identity I argue that Bernard Williams' famous thought experiments on personal identity are not as decisive as some have thought. Varia shorter papers, primarily expository, many written in preparation for a qualifying exam in metaphysics. I hope these papers will provide a good introduction to many of the important issues in contemporary analytic metaphysics. Causation J. L. Mackie's and David Lewis's theories of causation. Chisholm's Argument Against Temporal Parts Events Donald Davidson's and Jaegwon Kim's disagreement on the nature of events.
