Philosophy is defined as the love of wisdom and seeks truth through logical reasoning. It encompasses various disciplines that study different aspects of reality such as aesthetics, epistemology, logic, metaphysics, and ethics. Aesthetics examines the nature of beauty and art. Metaphysics deals with questions about the essence and existence of things and tries to build a picture of reality's structure based on reason. Philosophy helps make knowledge alive and useful, connects us to culture, and allows us to live more deeply.
