FROM TODAY'S FEATURED ARTICLE

The Thinker statue by Auguste Rodin

Philosophy is a systematic study of fundamental questions concerning topics like
existence, reason, knowledge, value, and mind. It is a rational and critical
inquiry that reflects on its own methods and assumptions. Major branches of
philosophy are epistemology, ethics, logic, and metaphysics. Epistemology
studies what knowledge is and how to acquire it. Ethics investigates the
principles of moral conduct. Logic is the study of correct reasoning.
Metaphysics examines the most general features of reality. Philosophical methods
include analysis of concepts and language, reliance on common sense and
intuitions, use of thought experiments, description of experience, and critical
questioning. Influential traditions are Western, Arabic–Persian, Indian, and
Chinese philosophy. Many of the sciences were part of philosophy before they
became separate disciplines. Philosophy is relevant to diverse fields of inquiry
by studying their scope and concepts and providing an interdisciplinary
perspective. (Full article...)

TODAY'S FEATURED PICTURE

Daphne mezereum, commonly known as the mezereum, February daphne, spurge laurel
or spurge olive, is a species of daphne in the flowering plant family
Thymelaeaceae, native to most of Europe and western Asia. D. mezereum is very
toxic because of the compounds mezerein and daphnin present especially in the
berries and twigs. The flowers have a four-lobed pink or light purple (rarely
white) perianth and are strongly scented. This D. mezereum flower was
photographed in a forest near Keila, Estonia.
