Content[edit]

The book is the second volume in a series of three written as an introduction to Western philosophy for a broad audience.[2] In his 2000 publication, The Dream of Reason: A History of Philosophy from the Greeks to the Renaissance, Gottlieb described the first of two explosions of thought that contributed to western philosophical traditions—starting with the Athenian philosophers, Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle.[a] In The Dream of Enlightenment, Gottlieb describes the second "burst" starting with René Descartes, then Thomas Hobbes, Baruch Spinoza, John Locke, Gottfried Leibniz, David Hume, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and the philosophes. Gottlieb describes how these two "staccato bursts"—each one only lasting for 150 years—contained the essence of two and a half millennia of Western philosophy. The first volume in the trilogy is The Dream of Reason which begins with the Greek philosophers and ends with the Renaissance, was published in 2000.[1][3][4] In The Dream of the Enlightenment, Gottlieb "picks up the story" from the time of Descartes in the 17th century and continues through to the French Revolution.[5] in which he "skillfully juggle[d]" aspects of the biographies of European philosophers against the backdrop of intellectual, political, and scientific transformations.[6]
