\u201cPhilosophy is a vast field. There are philosophies in different parts of the world; when we look
\nat the philosophical activity in a region, we find that in different periods people thought
\ndifferently about themselves and the world. Even if we take a particular period, we find
\ndifferent approaches. What is more, we may find similar trends in different parts of the world.
\nClassification is one way for the human being to get a grip on reality (in this case the reality of
\nways of reflecting about reality). In short classification is a way of coping with a variety of
\ndifferent ways to give meaning to life and the world. We may compare such classifications to
\nmaps which not only chart territories but, in doing so, help travellers to find their way. There
