Will Durant ke baare mein
Will Durant ek American lekhak, itihaskar aur darshanik the jinhone darshan aur itihas ko aam pathakon ke liye saral aur rochak bhasha mein likha. Unka janam 1885 mein Massachusetts mein hua aur 1981 mein unka nidhan hua.
Durant ne Columbia University se PhD ki aur New York mein vayaskon ko padhaya. 1926 mein chhapi 'The Story of Philosophy' unki pehli badi safalta thi. Is kitab mein Plato, Aristotle, Spinoza, Kant aur Nietzsche jaise darshanikon ke jeevan aur vichar kahani ki tarah samjhaaye gaye hain, aur yeh bahut padhi gayi.
Iske baad unhone kai dashakon tak 'The Story of Civilization' par kaam kiya, jo gyarah khandon mein duniya ki sabhyataon ka itihas hai. Baad ke khand unhone apni patni Ariel Durant ke saath milkar likhe. Iske dasve khand 'Rousseau and Revolution' ke liye dono ko 1968 mein Pulitzer Prize mila. Durant ka maanna tha ki itihas ko tukdon mein nahi, balki ek poori tasveer ke roop mein dekhna chahiye.
