Features: Due to space, the universe encompasses and swallows me, as if I am an atom. Due to thought, I possess the world. — Pascal once said, "The entire history of humanity is fundamentally a history of thought." The passage of time has caused many former glories and splendors to fade away like the wind, but only thought, the great thought of human relentless exploration, stands tall and independent. They are like mountains, standing tall and connected, continuing to write the history of humanity. Only they are truly great and free. They are the light that illuminates the world. They are humanity's greatest glory. These great thoughts may not bring us bread, but they can give us noble dignity, profound strength, and the courage to move forward. They can pierce through the stubborn walls of the secular world, cleansing our dusty souls, making them fresh, natural, and radiant. This book introduces readers to 100 influential works of thought in Western intellectual history, faithful to the original language, covering fields such as philosophy, religion, history, natural sciences, and intellectual essays. It is a true feast of thought, where readers can quietly listen to the voices of nearly 100 Western philosophers, touch their thoughts and souls, and experience the deepest and most magnificent chapters in the history of Western thought.
