This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'Leibniz's New Essays Concerning the Human Understanding', John Dewey offers a critical exposition of Leibniz's philosophical masterpiece, the 'Nouveaux Essais'. Despite the fragmented nature of the text, Dewey's account is faithful to Leibniz's thoughts and discussions. He identifies with Leibniz's standpoint and method while pointing out his limitations, especially in light of Kant's influence on modern thinking. Dewey examines Leibniz's relations to Locke and distinguishes British and German thought. Leibniz was a German polymath, known for his contributions to philosophy, mathematics, physics, technology, library science, and more. As a leading rationalist and idealist, he developed the main ideas of differential and integral calculus independently of Newton.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Leibniz's New Essays Concerning the Human Understanding - A Critical Exposition: Look inside the book: And who can fail to see in the impartiality, the comprehensiveness, of his self-education the prophecy of the time when he can write of his ideas that “there are united in them, as in a centre of perspective, the ideas of the Sceptics in attributing to sensible things only a slight degree of reality; of the Pythagoreans and Platonists, who reduce all to harmonies, numbers, and ideas; of Parmenides and Plotinus, with their One and All; of the Stoics, with their notion of necessity, compatible with the spontaneity of other schools; of the vital philosophy of the Cabalists, who find feeling everywhere; of the forms and entelechies of Aristotle and the Schoolmen, united with the mechanical explanation of phenomena according to Democritus and the moderns”? ...It would be interesting, were this the place, to trace the history of its discovery,—the gradual steps which led to it, the physical facts as well as mathematical theories which made it a necessity; but it must suffice to mention that these were such that the discovery of some general mode of expressing and interpreting the newly discovered facts of Nature was absolutely required for the further advance of science, and that steps towards the introduction of the fundamental ideas of the calculus had already been taken,—notably by Keppler, by Cavalieri, and by Wallis. About John Dewey, the Author: Dewey's most significant writings were 'The Reflex Arc Concept in Psychology' (1896), a critique of a standard psychological concept and the basis of all his further work; Democracy and Education (1916), his celebrated work on progressive education; Human Nature and Conduct (1922), a study of the function of habit in human behavior; The Public and its Problems (1927), a defense of democracy written in response to Walter Lippmann's The Phantom Public (1925); Experience and Nature (1925), Dewey's most 'metaphysical' statement; Art as Experience (1934), Dewey's major work on aesthetics; A Common Faith (1934), a humanistic study of religion originally delivered as the Dwight H. ...While some psychology historians consider Dewey more of a philosopher than a bona fide psychologist, the authors noted that Dewey was a founding member of the A.P.A., served as the A.P.A.'s eighth President in 1899, and was the author of an 1896 article on the reflex arc which is now considered a basis of American functional psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An NYRB Classics Original Simon Leys is a Renaissance man for the era of globalization. A distinguished scholar of classical Chinese art and literature and one of the first Westerners to recognize the appalling toll of Mao’s Cultural Revolution, Leys also writes with unfailing intelligence, seriousness, and bite about European art, literature, history, and politics and is an unflinching observer of the way we live now. The Hall of Uselessness is the most extensive collection of Leys’s essays to be published to date. In it, he addresses subjects ranging from the Chinese attitude to the past to the mysteries of Belgium and Belgitude; offers portraits of André Gide and Zhou Enlai; takes on Roland Barthes and Christopher Hitchens; broods on the Cambodian genocide; reflects on the spell of the sea; and writes with keen appreciation about writers as different as Victor Hugo, Evelyn Waugh, and Georges Simenon. Throughout, The Hall of Uselessness is marked with the deep knowledge, skeptical intelligence, and passionate conviction that have made Simon Leys one of the most powerful essayists of our time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, Vol. 2 of 2: Collated and Annotated, With Prolegomena, Biographical, Critical, and Historical After teaching in the Second Book that the only ideas to which a human mind can attain are composed of simple ideas or phenomena, presented in 'sensation' and 'reflection, ' as attributes of substances; and that even our loftiest thoughts are concerned only with the modes of those phenomena, the substances in which they appear, and their relations-Locke, in the Third Book, supplements this teaching, by unfolding the connexion between ideas of each sort and verbal signs, on which ideas depend, words being means for enabling men to regard ideas, in themselves particular, as general or universal (ch. in). The names of simple ideas and of their simple modes; the names of mixed modes and of relations; and the names of the different sorts of substances, have each something peculiar, regarded as signs of ideas (chh. iv, v, vi). All names of simple ideas and of ideas of substances 'intimate real existence'; but the common names of simple ideas signify the real essence, as well as the nominal, of the qualities that the names stand for, while the common names of substances can express only the nominal essence of the species within which men place the substance. Names of mixed modes, again, and of all ideas of relation, signify only the essences that men have annexed to the names. Simple ideas, moreover, are undefinable, and their names are of all others the least liable to ambiguity. Mixed modes, on the other hand, being formed arbitrarily by men, and sometimes very complex, their names are apt to be used ambiguously, on account of this complexity, and also because they have no absolute standard. The common names of substances, the most important of all, are determined by our limited experience of qualities, and can signify therefore only the connotation we have annexed to the names, not the real essence of the particular substances denoted. On the whole, words are naturally imperfect signs of ideas (ch. ix), especially of mixed modes, and above all of substances; and this natural imperfection of words is aggravated by 'wilful faults and neglects' of which men are guilty when they employ them, some of which are illustrated in detail (ch. x). The Book closes (ch. xi) with an account of five 'remedies' for the 'inconveniences' caused by the natural and acquired imperfection of language.

Download or read book Love's Knowledge written by Martha C. Nussbaum and published by OUP USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together Nussbaum's published papers on the relationship between literature and philosophy, especially moral philosophy. The papers, many of them previously inaccessible to non-specialist readers, deal with such fundamental issues as the relationship between style and content in the exploration of ethical issues; the nature of ethical attention and ethical knowledge and their relationship to written forms and styles; and the role of the emotions in deliberation and self-knowledge. Nussbaum investigates and defends a conception of ethical understanding which involves emotional as well as intellectual activity, and which gives a certain type of priority to the perception of particular people and situations rather than to abstract rules. She argues that this ethical conception cannot be completely and appropriately stated without turning to forms of writing usually considered literary rather than philosophical. It is consequently necessary to broaden our conception of moral philosophy in order to include these forms. Featuring two new essays and revised versions of several previously published essays, this collection attempts to articulate the relationship, within such a broader ethical inquiry, between literary and more abstractly theoretical elements.
