Émile Bréhier

Émile Bréhier (; 12 April 1876, Bar-le-Duc – 3 February 1952, Paris) was a French philosopher. His interest was in classical philosophy, and the history of philosophy. He wrote a ''Histoire de la Philosophie'', translated into English in seven volumes. This work inspired Frederick Copleston's own ''History of Philosophy'' (1946–1975), initially comprising nine volumes. Provided by Wikipedia
