Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Locke’s An Essay Concerning Human Understanding begins with a clear statement of an epistemological goal: to explain the limits of human knowledge, opinion, and ignorance. The actual text of the Essay, in stark contrast, takes a long and seemingly meandering path before returning to that goal at the Essay’s end—one with many detours through questions in philosophy of mind, metaphysics, and philosophy of language. Over time, Locke scholarship has come to focus on Locke’s contributions to these parts of philosophy. In Locke’s Science of Knowledge, Priselac refocuses on the Essay’s epistemological thread, arguing that the Essay is unified from beginning to end around its compositional theory of ideas and the active role Locke gives the mind in constructing its thoughts. To support the plausibility and demonstrate the value of this interpretation, Priselac argues that—contrary to its reputation as being at best sloppy and at worst outright inconsistent—Locke’s discussion of skepticism and account of knowledge of the external world fits neatly within the Essay’s epistemology.

It unqualifiedly denies that that which is present in the experience is therefore in the mind, or that to be means to be perceived. Sensations, if we can speak of such analyzed elements, are external objects and not ideas. On the other hand, it holds that the finite knower is part of the universe and not a passive or detached spectator. It affirms with Bosanquet that truth is the whole, that the worlds of finite centers of experience are true in so far as they correspond with the coherent whole of which they are parts. It is obvious therefore why Locke's theory of knowl edge, embracing as it does the doctrine of ideas and of two worlds, may be regarded as a typical antithesis to this standpoint.

Download or read book The Lockean Theory of Rights written by A. John Simmons and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Locke's political theory has been the subject of many detailed treatments by philosophers and political scientists. But The Lockean Theory of Rights is the first systematic, full-length study of Locke's theory of rights and of its potential for making genuine contributions to contemporary debates about rights and their place in political philosophy. Given that the rights of persons are the central moral concept at work in Locke's and Lockean political philosophy, such a study is long overdue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Locke's Theory of Knowledge: Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University 1. Standpoint of This Study. - The writer holds that reality is a systematic whole, that the mind, the body, and the external world are organic to one another. To insulate consciousness, to divide the universe into a realm of knowledge and a realm of external reality, he regards as an untenable position. In the words of Green, "A within implies a without and we are not entitled to say anything is without or outside consciousness; for externality, being a relation which, like any other relation, exists only in the medium of consciousness, (only between certain objects as they are for consciousness,) cannot be a relation between consciousness and anything else." In so far as it denies irresoluble dualism, this standpoint is one with so-called objective idealism, but it might just as well be called realism. It unqualifiedly denies that that which is present in the experience is therefore "in the mind," or that to be means to be perceived. Sensations, if we can speak of such analyzed elements, are external objects and not "ideas." On the other hand, it holds that the finite knower is part of the universe and not a passive or detached spectator. It affirms with Bosanquet that truth is the whole, that the worlds of finite centers of experience are true in so far as they correspond with the coherent whole of which they are parts. It is obvious therefore why Locke's theory of knowledge, embracing as it does the doctrine of ideas and of two worlds, may be regarded as a typical antithesis to this standpoint. 2. Method. - Locke's theory of knowledge, however, will not be used as a mere foil for a rival theory, as is the case with the criticisms of Liebnitz and Cousin. In the spirt of Socrates, the writer will attempt to meet Locke on his own ground and criticize his theory of knowledge with reference to his own statements and the common facts of experience as accessible to him as to us. The method of immanent criticism here adopted will doubtless lay this study open to the danger of loose organization. Unity, it is hoped, will be achieved by constant reference to the standpoint of this study. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first modern interpretation of Leibniz's comprehensive critique of Locke, the New Essays on Human Understanding. Arguing that the New Essays is controlled by the overriding purpose of refuting Locke's alleged materialism, Jolley establishes the metaphysical and theological motivation of the work on the basis of unpublished correspondence and manuscript material. He also shows the relevance of Leibniz's views to contemporary debates over innate ideas, personal identity, and natural kinds.
Book Synopsis The Cambridge Companion to Locke's 'Essay Concerning Human Understanding' by : Lex Newman
Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to Locke's 'Essay Concerning Human Understanding' written by Lex Newman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-03-05 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1689, John Locke's Essay Concerning Human Understanding is widely recognised as among the greatest works in the history of Western philosophy. The Essay puts forward a systematic empiricist theory of mind, detailing how all ideas and knowledge arise from sense experience. Locke was trained in mechanical philosophy and he crafted his account to be consistent with the best natural science of his day. The Essay was highly influential and its rendering of empiricism would become the standard for subsequent theorists. This Companion volume includes fifteen new essays from leading scholars. Covering the major themes of Locke's work, they explain his views while situating the ideas in the historical context of Locke's day and often clarifying their relationship to ongoing work in philosophy. Pitched to advanced undergraduates and graduate students, it is ideal for use in courses on early modern philosophy, British empiricism and John Locke.

Book Synopsis Consciousness in Locke by : Shelley Weinberg
Download or read book Consciousness in Locke written by Shelley Weinberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shelley Weinberg argues that the idea of consciousness as a form of non-evaluative self-awareness runs through and helps to solve some of the thorniest issues in Locke's philosophy: in his philosophical psychology and in his theories of knowledge, personal identity, and moral agency. Central to her account is that perceptions of ideas are complex mental states wherein consciousness is a constituent. Such an interpretation answers charges of inconsistency in Locke's model of the mind and lends coherence to a puzzling aspect of Locke's theory of knowledge: how we know individual things (particular ideas, ourselves, and external objects) when knowledge is defined as the perception of an agreement, or relation, of ideas. In each case, consciousness helps to forge the relation, resulting in a structurally integrated account of our knowledge of particulars fully consistent with the general definition. This model also explains how we achieve the unity of consciousness with past and future selves necessary for Locke's accounts of moral responsibility and moral motivation. And with help from other of his metaphysical commitments, consciousness so interpreted allows Locke's theory of personal identity to resist well-known accusations of circularity, failure of transitivity, and insufficiency for his theological and moral concerns. Although virtually every Locke scholar writes on at least some of these topics, the model of consciousness set forth here provides for an analysis all of these issues as bound together by a common thread.

This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the 17th and 18th Centuries, grade: A, University of Nairobi, language: English, abstract: British philosophers, John Locke and David Hume, are considered empiricists. This is because they based their philosophies on natural science. Both philosophers contributed to the theory of knowledge with Locke coming up with sensations and reflections and Hume coming up with impressions and ideas as the cornerstones of their theories of knowledge. Their theories aim to show us that everything we understand is by virtue of its connection with experience. Experience, therefore is the source of knowledge for these philosophers. This paper looks into empiricism both as a source and method of knowledge. The approach taken is by mirroring John Locke’s theory of knowledge with that of David Hume, identifying similarities, influence of Locke on Hume, the differences between them and a critique on the credibility of empiricism, as one of the sources and methods of knowledge. The conclusion arrived at is that empiricist ideas can explain the physical world and what we know of it but there remains rationally derived knowledge. On this account, both empiricism and rationalism are credible sources and methods of knowledge.
