Wilhelm Leibniz
Wilhelm Leibniz is the narrator in ‘Philosophical Essays and Texts of Leibniz.' Leibniz discusses his philosophical ideas referring to other renowned philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle. The counter and productive discussions about his ideas put Leibniz better positioned to prove his arguments.
Plato
According to Leibniz, Plato is an exceptional author and philosopher whose works cannot be disputed even when using facts. Therefore, Plato’s work is praised by Leibniz because it stands out.
Aristotle
Aristotle is an ancient philosopher, and Leibniz follows a lot from his past work to excel in his philosophical arguments. However, Leibniz is quick to critique what he feels needs more attention and scrutiny.
God
God is mentioned throughout Leibniz's philosophical essays. For instance, God is recognized as a Supreme Being because he makes everything. The recognition of God as the most powerful reminds readers that there is supernatural power in their midst that cannot be disputed.
