> And particularly it seems not clear, why God may not as well be Immutable, tho' he should sometimes vary the Quantity of Motion that he has put into the World, as He is, tho', according to the Opinion of most of the Cartesians themselves, he does daily create multitudes of Rational Souls, to unite them to Human Bodies: Especially considering, that these newly created substances, are, according to Des-Cartes, endow'd with a power, to determine and regulate the motions of the Spirits and the Conarion; which are things clearly Corporeal, I say not this, as if I absolutely rejected the Cartesian Doctrine, about the continuance of the same Quantity of Motion in the whole Mass of Matter. For, whether or no it be a Truth; I think 'tis no unuseful nor improbable Hypothesis: And I have not so much argued against it, as upon the Grounds, on which they argue for it.

> Increasing such knowledge of God would have multiplied the duties imposed upon us and worsened the sins whose omission makes us guilty. For, all else being equal, the more our understanding becomes clear without influencing the improvement of the will, the more considerable and criminal the infraction of our duties becomes. This has the consequence of making our situation all the sadder. Thus, it would have been to our greatest misfortune if it had pleased God to reveal Himself, if He had done it according to the false ideas of the freethinkers; on the contrary, we are well convinced that God, by way of his infinite kindness, has chosen other paths to make us part of the revelation and that these paths, far from increasing our misery, are destined to procure our true good. Thus, a revelation for our true good and conforming to divine kindness should have the primary goal of improving our will and should provide us with the most efficient motives to achieve this and, at the same time, only reveal what infinite perfections of God that we can comprehend without worsening our sins in the present state of depravity of our will. ... Moreover, almost everything they find in the Scripture is, for them, a stumbling block, while the completely unfounded tales that other books give them seem very believable to them as long as they are in opposition to the Bible. One thing in particular that to them seems entirely unbelievable is that the world had a beginning and, what's more, that it must have an end. They are afraid that, by admitting these truths, they acknowledge a direct action of God on the universe and on our present state, which is impossible for them to reconcile with the rest of their opinions. According to them, everything can be thought of as the result of ordinary forces of nature. They believe they are making progress and imagine that they are able to completely deny the direct works of God.

>What gaps do I need to fil in?
Late Antiquity (Boethius, Plotinus, some other neo-platonists or christian writers)
Middle Ages, since you pretty much only have Aquinas (Abelard, Eriugena, Duns Scotus, Anselm, Ockham, DANTE)
Modern era (Berkeley and the other german idealists if you are enough of a masochist)
Contemporary you could add a lot more (Ellul, Bergson, Baudrillard, Weil, Arendt, Husserl, Jung, Freud, etc.)
Also there are some authors who wrote fiction but had a lot of influence in one way or another (Homer, ancient tragedies, Dante, Cervantes, Shakespeare, Goethe, Tolstoy, Doestoyevsky, Kafka)

>>25641462
Also Diogenes Laerties' Lives of the Philosophers, if not only because he quoted and preserved a buch of short texts from Epicurus, as well as giving a good abrégé of the doctrines of the Old Stoics, whose works we lost

>>25640355
The thread has some good suggestions, but I'll try to make a list that fits by taking what's here, slimming the thread down, and expanding it.

Carlyle (On Hero-Worship + History of Frederick the Great)
Mencius (Mencius)
Boethius (The Consolation of Philosophy)
Pseudo-Dionysius (The Divine Names)
Plutarch (Lives)
Plotinus (Enneads)
Diogenes Laertius (Lives of the Philosophers)
Iamblichus (Life of Pythagoras)
Homer (Odyssey + Illiad)
Dante (The Divine Comedy)
Engels (The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State)
Marx (Capital)
Deleuze & Guattari (Anti-Oedipus)
Rawls (A Theory of Justice) [Even though I hate it]
Thoreau (Civil Disobedience)
Emerson (Essays)
Caesar (The Gallic Wars)
Hume (An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding)
Hamilton, Madison, & Jay (The Federalist Papers)
Beauvoir (The Second Sex)

Here is what I would remove.

40 Marx & Engels (Communist Manifesto)
The least important work by Marx

48 Thoreau (Walden)
A fine work, but it doesn't belong on this list

49 Sartre (Existentialism Is A Humanism)
Sartre was genuinely retarded. He didn't understand Freud; he didn't understand Heidegger; he didn't understand Plato.

50 Camus (Myth Of Sisyphus)
51 Camus (The Rebel)
Camus is fine, but he really does not belong on a list like this.

Probably would be a good idea adding a general history of some kind, since that's not covered by any primary sources after the greeks

Basically any single Shakespeare play has had more impact on the intellectual field of mankind than the Upanishads. Obviously the last entries in your list you smuggled in under the guise of religion, but literature has its impact too and a lot of the value of the religious texts you have included is basically literary value. Either get rid of the religious texts entirely or include Homer, the major Greek tragedies, the Aeneid, Divine Comedy, Hamlet, Macbeth, Lear, Paradise Lost, Don Quixote, Crime and Punishment, Anna Karenina, and Ulysses.

More arguably but possibly also Leaves of Grass, Swann's Way, Moby Dick, The Stranger, and 1984.

Schopenhauer, Stirner, Nietzsche. The end.

already have the Hume technically. no on Beauvoir (I refuse to entertain feminist philosophy because I'm a giant incel) the rest are fine.
