Abstract
In this paper, we develop a large ontology, which is an explicit formal specification of concepts and semantic relations among them in philosophy. Our philosophy ontology is a formal specification of philosophical knowledge including knowledge of contents of classical texts of philosophy. The philosophy ontology includes contents knowledge of 72 texts of philosophy but will be expanded to almost all the texts of oriental and western philosophy which are considered as essential philosophy texts by experts. It organizes a text-based knowledge base, which includes electronic texts and philosophy articles. The philosophy ontology provides not only easy concepts to novices and students but also more specialized detailed concepts from the contents of texts to domain experts.
