This reading was a quick and interesting introduction to the “origin of philosophy”. This reading talks about what the Milesians thought was the origin of everything. The ones that thought there was only one thing that gave origin to every other thing were the monists. Then came the pluralists, which thought multiple things were the fundamental ricks of reality.
I think this reading was a very appropiate one to introduce anyone to metaphysics. Personally, I haven’t read anything envolving metaphysics; so I’m happy to be in ground zero, in order to rediscover the wonders of human thinking through the eras of human beings.
