One of the main reasons why both philosophy and literature have a much closer and significant relationship with their heritage than subjects like physics and mathematics is because their canonical texts – for example Plato’s Republic, Descartes’s Discourse on Method, Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason and Homer’s Iliad, Shakespeare’s King Lear, Tolstoy’s War and Peace ‑ are not rendered philosophically or imaginatively superfluous as a consequence of the mere passage of time.

Science advances on prior physical explanations. Philosophy and literature are about the problems of life.
