Philosophy is the academic study of all wisdom.
The word translated from greek Philo = love Sophy = wisdom It is interesting because the branches of philosophy cover all formal institutions of knowledge. Metaphysics - The theories of reality Ontology - The theories of being and what can be Epistemology - The theories of knowledge and what can be known Politics - The theories of justice and how societies should be governed Ethics/Morality - The theories of what it means to live a good life/be a good person Economics/Axiology - The theories of value, worth, and market exchange or trade Aesthetics - The theories of art and beauty Any inquiry that you should seek to field can be found in philosophical discourse and expounded upon at length from varying individuals across a range of social and historical spectrums. It is actually pretty amazing...but only if you really think about it. |
