Features: Modern Western culture and civilization, although deeply rooted, have a distant foundation in Greek art and culture, Roman legal spirit, and Christian religious sentiment. However, modern culture after the Renaissance is indeed the crystallization of rational spirit, yet behind this rationality stands a devilish human desire! Zong Baihua, known as the master of Chinese aesthetics, achieved great success in aesthetic research precisely because of his comprehensive understanding and profound grasp of the history of Chinese and Western philosophy. This book is a work on the history of Western philosophy written by Zong Baihua in the 1940s. It is divided into two parts: The first part analyzes various issues concerning the philosophy of history as a science, while the second part systematically introduces the development of Western philosophy in the historical logic of ancient, medieval, and modern philosophy. The entire book presents a relatively comprehensive and objective discussion of the history of Western philosophy while also reflecting the author's personal academic thought.
