"Leibniz: Zu seinem zweihundertjährigen Todestag 14. November 1916" by Wilhelm Wundt is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work provides an exploration of the life and contributions of the eminent philosopher and mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, particularly focusing on his impact on both science and philosophy, as well as the intellectual context of his time. The opening of this study presents Wundt's reflections on the challenges of writing a scientific biography of Leibniz, detailing his long-standing interest in the philosopher's ideas. Wundt discusses how his encounters with Leibniz's work over the years have reshaped his understanding of modern German philosophy, with a specific emphasis on Leibniz's contributions to mathematical and physical sciences. He intends to illuminate the pathways by which Leibniz developed his philosophical ideas, positioning them as imaginative connections among evolving scientific theories rather than strictly logical systems. Wundt's narrative sets the stage for a deeper examination of Leibniz's significance against the backdrop of broader philosophical movements in the 17th century and their implications for future generations of thinkers.
