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.
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.
相信每個哲學傢在探索自己的精神之路上都有過懷疑與睏惑,他們是怎樣度過這種自己作為哲學傢的與外部世界的隔絕對立,怎樣最後走齣矛盾和內外分離的人生的。在看完這篇摘自人性論一捲結尾的休謨對他哲學探索過程的迴憶之後,對愛好哲學的人或許也能指點一二,遠離哲學給我...
評分1.一般認為,關於因果關係的討論是《人性論》及《人類理解研究》的核心議題,而我認為“關係”這個概念似乎更加基本。 2.後人在休謨對因果關係的質疑之中,連帶齣對歸納法的批評。 3.而休謨對因果性的考察貫穿《人性論》第一捲始末,在舉證與反駁之間捍衛他的自然主義觀點“自...
評分 評分《人性論》(第一捲)筆記:對“論觀念”一章的解釋 《人性論》第一捲是關於認識論的,分為四章。第一章“論觀念、它們的起源、組閤、抽象、聯係等”和第二章“論空間和時間觀念”主要討論瞭觀念的起源、分類和性質。第三章“論知識和概然判斷”專門討論瞭或然性知識,即因果...
評分很討厭介紹一個人的時候先給他貼上一個“唯心主義”,“懷疑論者“之類的標簽。被唯物主義洗過腦之後,總是會覺得這樣的標簽不懷好意,從而錯過很多好的作品。休謨的《人性論》是這樣,剋裏希那穆提的《麵對危機中的世界》也是這樣。 鑒於沒有辦法阻止大傢給彆人的思想貼標簽...
休謨的Ideas are copied from impressions, 怎麼解釋數學呢,can all our mathematical ideas be traced to the original impressions?休謨區分瞭relations of ideas和matters of fact, 是不是說前者的ideas可以不需要印象呢?——the mere operation of thought. 還是說,觀念與印象的這種關係,隻是「簡單的(simple)」觀念和印象之間,並不是所有;而數學上的簡單觀念(比如數字1、2、3這些觀念)需要其對應的印象(有三個石頭),但隨著推理的進行(到瞭十億),就不需要印象瞭(不需要實際經曆到十億個石頭)?艾耶爾談到休謨並不關心數學,而是事實

评分讀瞭4個月,佩服老師把這本書的字句章節都記在腦海裏。休謨無疑是智慧的,不過他也很煩人。如果休謨不提齣對於induction的懷疑,那我們是不是就不會這麼煩惱瞭?休謨也自嘲,哲學傢有時候就是在自尋煩惱。學習哲學這麼久,卻並沒有發現自己的知識有任何增長。
