Features: This book is intended as a textbook for students in philosophy departments of comprehensive universities to study the "History of Western Philosophy" course, and can also be used as a reference for self-learners. Researching history requires a thorough grasp of primary sources. The primary sources of the history of philosophy are the original works of the philosophers. However, the original philosophical works are vast and endless. Beginners, in addition to attending classes, have limited self-study time in a year, and can only study a small, necessary part under the guidance of the teacher as basic training. Therefore, it is necessary to select representative passages from the original works of major philosophers to meet the needs of teaching. This is the purpose of compiling this book.
