EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of "Theodicee" by Gottfried Leibniz, a renowned German polymath. Published in its second edition in 1712, this engraving from the Dutch School of the 18th century is now held in a private collection. "Theodicee" delves into profound philosophical inquiries concerning God's benevolence, human freedom, and the origin of evil. Leibniz's intellectual prowess shines through his thought-provoking essays that explore these complex topics. The title page itself exudes an air of sophistication and scholarly elegance. Its intricate design features ornate typography and decorative elements that reflect the artistic sensibilities of its time. The Latin phrase "ardua virtutis via" meaning "the difficult path to virtue" adds another layer of depth to this visually striking composition. As we delve into this image, we are transported back to a period when philosophy was at its zenith, with great minds like Leibniz pushing boundaries and challenging conventional wisdom. This print serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring quest for knowledge and understanding.
