More about the book
Exploring the concept of truth, this essay delves into philosophical perspectives from Plato to Hegel. It begins with Pilate's inquiry and examines various definitions of truth, including Plato's emphasis on existence, Aristotle's correspondence theory, and Augustine's timelessness. The discussion progresses through Scholastic thought, Descartes' divine truths, and Kant's limits on knowledge of absolute truth. Ultimately, it highlights Hegel's assertion that the pursuit of absolute truth remains a philosopher's duty, countering the relativism introduced by Kant.
