Plato: Republic, especially Books VI and VII. Translated by Davies and Vaughan. Golden Treasury Series.

Descartes: Meditations. Translated by Haldane and Ross. Cambridge University Press, 1911.

Spinoza: Ethics. Translated by Hale White and Amelia Stirling.

Leibniz: The Monadology. Translated by R. Latta. Oxford, 1898.
