Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716) was a prominent German philosopher, mathematician, and polymath known for his contributions to various fields including calculus, metaphysics, and logic. He is often regarded as one of the last universal geniuses, having developed concepts such as monads and pre-established harmony. Leibniz's work laid the groundwork for many modern philosophical inquiries and his ideas about the nature of reality and the existence of God continue to influence theological discussions. His theodicy, written in response to the problem of evil, attempts to reconcile the existence of a benevolent God with the presence of suffering in the world.
