This volume collects contributions from leading scholars of early modern philosophy from a wide variety of philosophical and geographic backgrounds. The distinguished contributors offer very different, competing approaches to the history of philosophy. Many chapters articulate new, detailed methods of doing history of philosophy. These present conflicting visions of the history of philosophy as an autonomous subdiscipline of professional philosophy. Several other chapters offer new approaches to integrating history into ones philosophy by retelling the history of recent philosophy. A number of chapters explore the relationship between history of philosophy and history of science. Among the topics discussed and debated in the volume are the status of the principle of charity the nature of reading texts the role of historiography within the history of philosophy the nature of establishing proper context.
