(2021_64) Sophie's World - Jostein Gaarder

 

I finally read Sophie's World, the near-classic book on philosophy. There were some challenges in terms of vocabulary, but it was not that critical to understand the whole story. But I personally think it could be quite difficult for someone without general background on the history of philosophy even though this book was written for teenagers. Maybe the reason why I thought like that was probably I read it in English, not my native language.

After all, it really helped to organize the general history of philosophy; Having read this book I decided read another book, "철학과 굴뚝 청소부", which I read when I was in early 20s. I just think I need to elaborate on this topic a bit more.
