Oxford Philosophical Texts Series Editor: John Cottingham The Oxford Philosophical Texts series consists of authoritative teaching editions of canonical texts in the history of philosophy from the ancient world down to modern times. Each volume provides a clear, well laid out text together with a comprehensive introduction by a leading specialist, giving the student detailed critical guidance on the intellectual context of the work and the structure and philosophical importance of the main arguments. Endnotes are supplied which provide further commentary on the arguments and explain unfamiliar references and terminology, and a full bibliography and index are also included. The series aims to build up a definitive corpus of key texts in the Western philosophical tradition, which will form a reliable and enduring resource for students and teachers alike. David Hume's aim in writing An Enquiry concerning Human Understanding (1748) was to introduce his philosophy to a European culture in which many educated people read original works of philosophy. He gives an elegant and accessible presentation of strikingly original and challenging views about the limited powers of human understanding, the attractions of scepticism, the compatibility of free will and determinism, and weaknesses in the foundations of religion. Hume's philosophy was highly controversial in the eighteenth century and remains so today. The text printed in this edition is that of the Clarendon critical edition of Hume's works. A substantial introduction by the editor explains the intellectual background to the work and surveys its main themes. The volume also includes detailed explanatory notes on the text, a glossary of terms, a full list of references, and a section of supplementary readings.

讀書筆記5:人類理智研究 學生問,人生的意義是什麼,老師迴答,人生的意義就是你可以不斷的問人生的意義是什麼。 哲學傢個個都是精神勝利法的高手,他們說即便你錦衣玉食,不懂的人生的意義,就是毫無意義。休謨則不同,他說,最完美的道德是在兩個極端之間,對於書籍,社交和...
評分 評分一 休謨給自己寫的自傳中說,自己不喜歡學法律,也嘗試瞭經商,但是毫無興趣,唯一的熱愛,在於思考哲學和一般學問。老王說,每個人一生都有一個主題。休謨就是哲學沉思,就像蘇格拉底的探索知識,笛卡爾、康德和斯賓諾莎也是如此。或許我也是如此,因為我在彆的很多工作或生活...
評分博爾赫斯有一篇有名的短篇小說--《死亡與指南針》,裏麵說瞭這樣一個戲劇性的故事:有個熱衷推理的警長在12月3日發現瞭一起凶殺案,在凶案現場,警長把一部宗教意味濃厚的書跟一個字母作為重要綫索,並登載在報紙上。巧的是,1月3日又發生瞭一起死亡事件,而且現場齣現...
評分有些問題,我們可以不去瞭解,那不會影響我們的吃喝住行。但這些問題如果不去瞭解,人生到底還是會變得黯淡。太多的理所當然太多的習以為常,基於習慣和經驗,人變得倨傲和自負。 於是休謨問題就震撼瞭整個世界。科學並不比迷信更加理性。當人類掌握更多的知識,不斷推進理智...

評分牛,我好喜歡他說話的風格和方式,鏗鏘有力但也充滿寬容,有點像我滴心靈雞湯(。很多論點很有意思,反思連接瞭很多以往哲學傢的觀點。第十一章他和朋友對話好好玩,把道理一層層說通瞭!以及mitigated skepticism太有意思瞭555555
