Abstract

The purpose of this writing was to provide general excerpt of philosophy for the first time readers. This general excerpt of philosophy will minimize fundamental misunderstanding of philosophy. As my observation and experience, most of the time, in my country, Ethiopia and in my continent, Africa, individuals who are not study and know philosophy as a discipline, have not idea of what philosophy means. Even if they have idea of philosophy, their idea is out of the truck. For them everything is philosophy. Poem, dance, conversation and etc… are philosophy. The poet, the dancer, the informer and the talkative are philosophers. However, philosophy is not talking of trash events. It does not mean ordinary dialogue rather it is hard science which typically has its own scientific procedure and scientific investigation. Philosophers are persons who deal with science of wisdom: wisdom of knowledge, reality, ethics, politics and beauty. Accordingly, for the purpose, I, roughly, melting together the different topics of philosophy in to different branches of philosophy. Further, the unforgotten point over here is that I did document analysis as a baseline to give general expert of philosophy.

Summary

Introduction

It is not amplification to say Miller is the first who explains philosophy in cushy way. Philosophy is a rational and a critical enterprise and it can see from the angle of a speculative, an analytic and an existential approach. Related with a speculative approach, philosophy is dealing with most ultimate and far ranging questions. The analytic approach linked to different views of the nature of philosophy, the sources of philosophical knowledge, the role of language in thought, the relationship between language and the world. Philosophy is dealing with to exist reality [27]. When I come to the salient point, philosophy has numerous branches: Metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, logic, political philosophy and value-theory [24]
