Just a quick reference for those who, like me, are interested in Leibniz – I am teaching Theodicy in the Spring and I wanted to mention a website run by Lloyd Strickland – http://www.leibniz-translations.com/ – not much of Leibniz’s writings are available in English, so this is a great resource, I hope you will find it useful. Here’s, for example, Leibniz’s The Philosopher’s Confession which can be found on the above-mentioned website (here in .pdf) – and there is more!
