Über diesen Titel

In A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge, commonly referred to as the Treatise, Irish Empiricist philosopher George Berkeley presents a compelling challenge to the views of his contemporary John Locke regarding human perception. While both philosophers acknowledged the existence of an external world that influences our mental ideas, Berkeley boldly posits that this world is not made up of physical objects but is instead entirely composed of ideas. He famously argues that Ideas can only resemble Ideas, suggesting that our mental experiences are reflections of other ideas rather than tangible entities. This thought-provoking work explores the nature of reality, ultimately attributing the coherence of the world to a divine force—God. Notably, Part 2 of the Treatise remains unwritten, leaving readers to ponder the implications of Berkeleys groundbreaking philosophy.Copyright Politics, Philosophy, Religion
