Welcome
to my own philosophy pages
about my own philosophy!
The
links on the left give only a rather random and very small selection of what
I wrote. (It depends in part on what is in html).
Probably the best introduction to my own ideas are the
Philosophical Dictionary
and its
Key-terms
There
is a good if somewhat indirect survey of some of my ideas about society, men,
education and quite a few other things for those who read Dutch in my
comments to
Multatuli's IDEEN.
Multatuli
was the alias of Eduard Douwes Dekker, a truly amazing Dutchman who lived
from 1820-1887, and may be read in English in Penguin Classics: "Max Havelaar",
which is mostly autobiographical.
The
only real and genuine modern Dutch philosophers I know of (that are worth
reading) are Multatuli and Beth, and neither was an academic philosopher. (Beth
was a mathematician and logician primarily. I like his "Foundations of
Mathematics" very much.)
There
is and will be considerably more
philosophy and
logic in English on
this
site in the future, and indeed there is much more
in the links in this paragraph - and note that all
philosophical classics I put on line come with my own comments.
There now also is the - beginning of - the beginning of my own
Ideeën in Dutch.
I wish
you pleasurable and instructive reading and computing,
and a high intelligence!
