Abstract
This outline of the Dynamics of Reason: Its History and Development is based on theidea
that this can be illustrated employing a historical analysis of the conception of reason.Though the
term “reason”has been used in different contexts but through this paper, my main aim is to find
out the nature of reason by illustrating the conception of reason as the faculty of the human mind
and its effects on human life. This article clearly shows the development of the conception of
Reason by analyzing the viewpoints of different philosophers (from the ancient Greek period to the
enlightenment epoch) regarding this notion. It also spreads light on what kind of key role reason
plays to constitute human nature as well as to understand the nature of the world.
