Two main questions will be addressed here: the transformation of Leibniz's conception of principles will be projected on the model of reconstruction of his philosophy called metaphysics of systemic individuality; the principle of reason will then be analyzed, and especially its practical aspect, i.e. as a principle of action. On the one hand, certain versions of the principle of reason find application in the realm of what can or ought to be done. For example, the principle of reason as the principle of convenience. On the other hand, Leibniz distinguishes between the human subject and the divine subject as two different epistemological points of view, performing what is more convenient in very different ways – from the human point of view, there is a process of 'perpetual progress'. These practical versions of the principle of reason are linked to the dominant principle of ethics and politics (the principe d'autrui, principle of the other) and with the meta-principle of Leibnizian logic and rationality: the principe de l'ordre, principle of order.Deux questions principales seront ici abordées : la transformation de la conception leibnizienne des principes sera projetée sur le modèle de reconstruction de sa philosophie appelé métaphysique de l'individualité systémique ; le principe de raison sera ensuite analysé et tout spécialement, son aspect pratique en tant que principe de l'action. D'une part, il existe certaines versions du principe de raison qui trouvent leur application dans le domaine de ce qui peut ou doit être fait (par exemple, le principe de raison comme principe de la convenance). D'autre part, Leibniz distingue le sujet humain et le sujet divin comme deux points de vue épistémologiques différents, qui font ce qui est plus convenable de différentes façons : du point de vue humain, il se produit un processus de 'progrès perpétuel'. Les versions pratiques du principe de raison sont liées au principe dominant de l'éthique et de la politique (le principe d'autrui) et avec le méta-principe de la logique et de la rationalité leibnizienne : le principe de l'ordre.

Correspondence between intellectuals of different disciplines occupied a very important place in philosophical production between the 16th and 18th centuries. The lack of scientific journals, publishers and email, made postal mail (at the speed possible at that time) one of the key factors for exchanging knowledge, discussion and discovering new findings. In this paper a reflection on the relevance of the letter in the construction of knowledge is presented. Three main features stand out. First, the isolated letter is an abstraction regarding its own context, the set of correspondence between two or more authors. Second, the letter is a fundamental product, not only for disseminating knowledge among specialists, but also for its discovery and creation. Finally, the exchange of letters is not only an essential means of communication between scientists, politicians and intellectuals, but has also sometimes been the platform where confrontations of historical significance have taken place. All these reflections are illustrated through texts and examples from the vast correspondence of Leibniz. ; En la producción filosófica de los siglos XVI al XVIII ocupa un papel muy importante la correspondencia entre los intelectuales de diversas disciplinas. Dada la ausencia de revistas científicas, de editoriales y, por supuesto, de correo electrónico, la correspondencia postal (al ritmo posible en aquellos momentos) era un elemento clave de intercambio de conocimientos, de discusión y descubrimiento de nuevos hallazgos.Se plantea aquí una reflexión sobre el sentido de la carta y su papel en la constitución del saber. Se destacan tres rasgos principales: la carta es una abstracción respecto a su contexto propio que es el conjunto de la correspondencia entre dos o más autores; la carta es un producto fundamental no sólo en la difusión del saber entre especialistas, sino también en su descubrimiento y creación; y por último, el intercambio epistolar no sólo constituye un modo esencial de comunicación entre científicos, políticos o intelectuales, sino que también a veces ha constituido la plataforma en la que han tenido lugar desencuentros de alcance histórico.Toda esta reflexión se ilumina al hilo de los textos y ejemplos de la inmensa correspondencia de Leibniz.

In recent centuries in the history of philosophy, Leibniz's thought has been considered from a wide range of perspectives: as a decisive influence on modernity's genesis or, as Kant's predecessor, as key to contemporary logic's development, and even in parallel to Nietzsche's metaphysics of individuality. However, the high potential of Leibniz's thought has been most strongly understood by contemporary hermeneutics and its authors, including Heidegger, for whom Leibniz represents the greatest exponent of Modernity. This book explores the philosophical connection of the hermeneutical approach w
