| description | In this study I aim to examine the attributes ‘best’ and ‘most perfect’ that Leibniz frequently makes use of concerning the question of free will. The question of free will constitutes a crucial theme throughout Leibniz’s philosophy and particularly in regard to his concern with morality. In accordance with the essential constituents of his philosophy such as the best possible world and the necessity-contingency dichotomy, I aim at debating the legitimacy of Leibniz’s use of these attributes with respect to divine and human acts as free actsthe divine in a supreme manner and the human in degrees. In this context, Leibniz’s writings that cover the question of free will and two of his renowned texts, Monodology and Discourse on Metaphysics will be consulted. |
