David hume (1711-76) devoted himself from early youth to 'philosophy and great learning'. A Treatise of Human Nature (1739-40) was not well received on publication, but is now viewed as his masterpiece.
Ernest Campbell Mossner is the author of many books on Hume. He has received fellowships from Columbia, Guggenheim and Fulbright, and has held the post of Professor of English and Philosophy at the University of Texas.

1.一般认为,关于因果关系的讨论是《人性论》及《人类理解研究》的核心议题,而我认为“关系”这个概念似乎更加基本。 2.后人在休谟对因果关系的质疑之中,连带出对归纳法的批评。 3.而休谟对因果性的考察贯穿《人性论》第一卷始末,在举证与反驳之间捍卫他的自然主义观点“自...

评分很讨厌介绍一个人的时候先给他贴上一个“唯心主义”,“怀疑论者“之类的标签。被唯物主义洗过脑之后,总是会觉得这样的标签不怀好意,从而错过很多好的作品。休谟的《人性论》是这样,克里希那穆提的《面对危机中的世界》也是这样。 鉴于没有办法阻止大家给别人的思想贴标签...

One of the most significant works of Western philosophy, Hume's Treatise was published in 1739-40, before he was thirty years old. A pinnacle of English empiricism, it is a comprehensive attempt to apply scientific methods of observation to a study of human nature, and a vigorous attack upon the principles of traditional metaphysical thought. With masterly eloquence, Hume denies the immortality of the soul and the reality of space; considers the manner in which we form concepts of identity, cause and effect; and speculates upon the nature of freedom, virtue and emotion. Opposed both to metaphysics and to rationalism, Hume's philosophy of informed scepticism sees man not as a religious creation, nor as a machine, but as a creature dominated by sentiment, passion and appetite.
仅第二卷和一部分第三卷。教之前搞得很紧张,生怕被问各种答不出来的问题。后来发现真是多虑了:同学们由于一头雾水于是甚至都不知道该问什么。

评分确实有道理
评分休谟的Ideas are copied from impressions, 怎么解释数学呢,can all our mathematical ideas be traced to the original impressions?休谟区分了relations of ideas和matters of fact, 是不是说前者的ideas可以不需要印象呢?——the mere operation of thought. 还是说,观念与印象的这种关系,只是「简单的(simple)」观念和印象之间,并不是所有;而数学上的简单观念(比如数字1、2、3这些观念)需要其对应的印象(有三个石头),但随着推理的进行(到了十亿),就不需要印象了(不需要实际经历到十亿个石头)?艾耶尔谈到休谟并不关心数学,而是事实
