EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of "Essays of Theodicy on the Goodness of God" by Gottfried Leibniz, a renowned philosopher and mathematician. Created in 1710, this engraving by the French School in the 18th century is now housed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The title page itself is an intricate work of art that sets the tone for Leibniz's profound exploration into theological matters. It features a mountainous landscape with its majestic peaks reaching towards the heavens, symbolizing man's quest for understanding divine goodness amidst human freedom and the origin of evil. Leibniz's essays delve into deep philosophical questions surrounding these topics known as "theodicy". Through his writings, he seeks to reconcile God's benevolence with mankind's ability to make choices and grapple with moral dilemmas. This intellectual pursuit has made Leibniz one of history's most influential thinkers on religious philosophy. The photograph captures not only the visual beauty of this historical artifact but also invites us to contemplate profound existential questions. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that throughout centuries humans have sought answers about our place in a complex world governed by both divine providence and human agency. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic craftsmanship behind this title page and its significance within religious discourse. It serves as a timeless reminder that humanity has always been driven by curiosity
