IIRC, several people have ranked Leibniz as one of the greatest intellects ever but said he wasted it by going in too many directions at once (like Thomas Young, Leonardo da Vinci, etc).

Niggas don't think we be living in the best of all possible worlds but we do

Where should I start with him? I've already read Descartes' most important works and Spinoza's Ethics. Anything else I should read before tackling him?

bump

Where are all of the contemporary polymaths?

i tried reading Theodicy, his philosophy is so wrong

Is there even a point to read Leibniz after he got so thoroughly BTFO by Kant?

>René "let's take the existence of the material world as given because it's convenient to my system" Descartes
>anything but a shittier Leibniz

Next you'll tell me Locke was good for anything but his political works

That's because Mathbros are on our side.

So what does /lit/ think are the worst philosophies ever made ?

No. However this is the best of all possible worlds so I am sure you will find somewhere.

This guy, he just looks ridiculous. His head doesn't even remotely fit that wig, goddamn. I also don't like his writings anyway, worst rationalist.
