Socrates to Enlightenment: A Journey Through Man's Evolving Self-View

This book provides an overview of the chronological development through which humans transitioned from collective self-understanding to valuing and examining the individual self, independent of any hegemonic social context. It offers insights into how philosophers from early Greek philosophy up to the Enlightenment conceptualized both the individual and the totality of humanity. Furthermore, it explores the shift from addressing cosmological issues to focusing on matters pertaining to human life.
