Follow your curiosity

Move around: Drag the map, or focus it and use the arrow keys.
Move closer: Scroll, pinch, or use + and −. Thinkers appear as you approach.
Follow a connection: Select a node, then choose a connected tradition or thinker.
Find your bearings: Use Global view or press Home while the map is focused.

Clusters reflect selected intellectual relationships, not geography or a timeline. Proximity alone is not evidence of influence. A thinker may participate in several traditions.

This is a sourced starting collection, not a complete canon. Classifications simplify a complex history; read each connection’s context.
