- Résumé : Leibniz's "New Essays Concerning the Human Understanding" is a profound exploration of the philosophical landscape of the 17th century, reflecting the intellectual ferment of the era. The text delves into Leibniz's engagement with the ideas of his predecessors and contemporaries, particularly focusing on his response to John Locke's empiricism. Leibniz critiques Locke's denial of innate ideas, proposing instead that the mind possesses inherent principles that shape our understanding of the world. This work is not merely a critique but an attempt to synthesize the rationalist and empiricist traditions, aiming to reconcile the mechanical philosophy of Descartes with the organic and teleological views of Aristotle. Leibniz's philosophy is characterized by its emphasis on the unity and interdependence of all things, a reflection of the scientific advancements of his time. His concept of pre-established harmony, which posits that the universe is a coherent and interconnected whole, is central to his thought. The text also highlights Leibniz's belief in the rationality and intelligibility of the world, suggesting that every part of the universe reflects the whole. This optimistic view of the universe as a rational and harmonious system is a testament to Leibniz's belief in the power of reason and the potential for human understanding to grasp the complexities of the world. Through his critical exposition, Leibniz not only addresses the limitations of his predecessors but also lays the groundwork for future philosophical inquiry, influencing thinkers such as Kant and shaping the trajectory of modern philosophy.
