A classic work, Erdmann's History of Philosophy (1890) covers Ancient, Medieval and Modern Philosophy, ending with the German post-Hegelians of the first half of the nineteenth century. It is a history with a difference -- Erdmann's supreme achievement was to not content himself with mere summarizings of opinions, but to exhibit the history of human thought as a continuous and ever-developing effort to solve the great speculative problems which have confronted man in all ages.
