Meditationes de prima philosophia by René Descartes
"Meditationes de prima philosophia" by René Descartes is a philosophical treatise first published in 1641. In six meditations, Descartes systematically doubts all previous beliefs to establish what can be known with absolute certainty. Written as daily reflections, the work attempts to demonstrate fundamental truths about God's existence and the soul's nature through rigorous philosophical reasoning. This influential text invites readers to meditate alongside Descartes as he rebuilds knowledge from the ground up.
