IBNA: The original Emile Brehier's History of Philosophy contains seven volumes each concentrating on the Greek period, the Roman, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, the 17th Century, the 18th Century, the 19th Century, and one focusing on the period after the 19th century.
So far, volumes one to four are converted into Persian. The fifth volume focuses on the ideas of Newton, Locke, Barckley, Wolff, Vico, Montesquieu, Hume, Voltaire, Rousseau and Kant.
The content of the fifth volume is similar to the sixth volume of Copleston's book "From Wolff to Kant" except that Copleston's gives a larger space to introducing Kant's philosophy.
According to Brehier, the 18th century is a break from great divine systems of Malbranch, Leibnitz, or Spinoza to great philosophies of Schelling, Hegel or Comtes.
Philosophical historiographers have not paid much attention to the 18th century and have not found but superficiality, and discontinuous non-original and prejudiced ideas.
The main characteristic of the 18th century is rapid decadence and then downfall of great philosophical systems that had attempted to unify natural philosophy with philosophy of the mind.
The first issue of "History of Philosophy – 18th Century" is recently released by Hermes Publications in 367 pages and 3000 copies.
