2020, Lo Sguardo
The issue 32 (2020/1) of the journal “Lo Sguardo” is dedicated to the influence of the Leibnizian production in the development of various knowledge domains from the end of the German Idealism (1850) up to nowadays. In tune with the multifaceted genius he was, the editors also accept contributions from disciplines different from philosophy, written in a popular fashion, such as mathematics, literature, informatics, history, linguistics, etc. The contributions are not restricted to the authors listed in the call.

This volume tells the story of the legacy and impact of the great German polymath Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716). Leibniz made significant contributions to many areas, including philosophy, mathematics, political and social theory, theology, and various sciences. The essays in this volume explores the effects of Leibniz’s profound insights on subsequent generations of thinkers by tracing the ways in which his ideas have been defended and developed in the three centuries since his death. Each of the 11 essays is concerned with Leibniz’s legacy and impact in a particular area, and between them they show not just the depth of Leibniz’s talents but also the extent to which he shaped the various domains to which he contributed, and in some cases continues to shape them today. With essays written by experts such as Nicholas Jolley, Pauline Phemister, and Philip Beeley, this volume is essential reading not just for students of Leibniz but also for those who wish to understand the game-changing impact made by one of history’s true universal geniuses.

This book presents new research into key areas of the work of German philosopher and mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716). Reflecting various aspects of Leibniz’s thought, this book offers a collection of original research arranged into four separate themes: Science, Metaphysics, Epistemology, and Religion and Theology. With in-depth articles by experts such as Maria Rosa Antognazza, Nicholas Jolley, Agustín Echavarría, Richard Arthur and Paul Lodge, this book is an invaluable resource not only for readers just beginning to discover Leibniz, but also for scholars long familiar with his philosophy and eager to gain new perspectives on his work.

The story of the legacy and impact of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716) has as many twists and turns as there are people who have been touched by his ideas, each twist and turn forming a new story about the adoption, amplification, development, rejection, or distortion of Leibniz’s thought from his own time to ours. This volume contains eleven such stories, focusing on various elements of his thought such as optimism, probability theory, dynamics, monadology, and his efforts to systematize and codify the law. The aim of this chapter is to introduce each of these stories and put them in a broader context by outlining the findings of previous research into the legacy and impact of Leibniz's work.
The Leibnizian perspectivism The point of view became in Leibniz's thought one of the main concepts of his metaphysical and epistemological conceptions. We must remember his preference for perspectivistic metaphors when presenting a plastic image of the monadological world. However, Leibniz's perspectivism, due partly to Nietzsche, has been interpreted as a way of subjectivism, as a subjectivizing projection of the individual, as an expression of the will to power. This is, for example, the evaluation of the Leibnizian perspectivism in Heidegger and Gadamer. 1 It is not my intention to amend this interpretation, which runs in subtle ways from a criticism to all the occidental metaphysics. I neither pretend to save Leibniz from this criticism, if that were appropriate. In any case, my modest intention is to show that, beyond a certain understanding of the whole criticism to metaphysics, Leibnizian perspectivism, at least considered at its face value, is far away from constituting another expression of modern subjectivism. As I will try to show, the Leibnizian perspectivism is based on an ontological conception of structural character concerning the nature of things. The Leibnizian perspectivism, against its subjectivizing interpretations, implies the concept of projective exposition or displaying, in which fundamental elements of what is projected are conserved. As we will soon analyze, the concept of expression, which in essence can be understood as a transformation that conserves some invariants, is one of the main concepts of this way of understanding the Leibnizian perspectivism. The Leibnizian concept of expression is closely connected with the notion of representation, which in Leibniz assumes, from an epistemological point of view, a clearly contemporary nuance. 2 However, the expression has still deeper roots. On the one hand, it is a metaphysical concept whose exploration is still open. On the other hand, it reveals formal aspects, which have a mathematical and logical origin (if by 'logical' we understand issues about the structure or form of objects in general). The possibility of transformation under invariance between different objects is based on a community of structure: either they have an identical structure or a certain homology under certain respects can be established between them. Thus, a science of these formal possibilities would constitute, at the same time, a structural foundation of the expression.
