Copleston's A History of Philosophy


[Under construction: Last updated 1 November 2013]

Father Copleston's A History of Philosophy has achieved something of the status of a classic, particularly among Catholics. (Personally, I have some doubts about its suitability as an introductory text book, in particular (and most noticeably in volume 1) due to its extensive use of untranslated quotes in Latin and Greek, and its assumption of an existing familiarity with philosophy. But still...)

In any case, I shall attempt on this page to link to materials useful in reading this work. As a beginning, I shall attempt to link its bibliographies to online (free) editions of the works referred to. (Whilst there's an obvious objection that, in many cases the scholarship is outdated, I'd reply: a) even if much of the scholarship is unfashionable, the reading of a text through the prism of a Catholic scholastic sensibility remains of abiding worth to those of us intent on immersing ourselves in that sensibility rather than pursuing current intellectual fashions; and b) there remains an historical interest in tracing what someone trained in early twentieth century neo-scholasticism thought worth reading.)

The bibliographies are from the (paperback) Image Books edition of the History, published in 1962. They are taken verbatim from that edition, with material in square brackets being my additions.]
