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.

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.

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.

Download or read book Consciousness in Locke written by Shelley Weinberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 257 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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines John Locke's claims about the nature and workings of language. Walter Ott proposes an interpretation of Locke's thesis in which words signify ideas in the mind of the speaker, and argues that rather than employing such notions as sense or reference, Locke relies on an ancient tradition that understands signification as reliable indication. He then uses this interpretation to explain crucial areas of Locke's metaphysics and epistemology, including essence, abstraction, knowledge and mental representation. His discussion challenges many of the orthodox readings of Locke, and will be of interest to historians of philosophy and philosophers of language alike.

Download or read book Knowledge written by Jennifer Nagel and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2014 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is knowledge? Is it the same as opinion or truth? Do you need to be able to justify a claim in order to count as knowing it? How can we know that the outer world is real and not a dream? Questions like these have existed since ancient times, and the branch of philosophy dedicated to answering them - epistemology - has been active for thousands of years. In this thought-provoking Very Short Introduction, Jennifer Nagel considers the central problems and paradoxes in the theory of knowledge and draws attention to the ways in which philosophers and theorists have responded to them. By exploring the relationship between knowledge and truth, and considering the problem of scepticism, Nagel introduces a series of influential historical and contemporary theories of knowledge, incorporating methods from logic, linguistics, and psychology, using a number of everyday examples to demonstrate the key issues and debates. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
