Pure Immanence: Essays on a Life
by Deleuze, Gilles    Rajchman, John    Boyman, Anne
(Paperback - English - 9781890951252)
Pure Immanence collects the essays of Gilles Deleuze on a complex theme at the heart of his philosophy. In his last piece of writing, included here, Deleuze gives a simple name to this problem: "a life." Newly translated and gathered in one volume for the first time, the essays in Pure Immanence capture Deleuze's persistent search throughout his philosophical work for a new and superior form of empiricism that rethinks the relation of thought to life. "I have always felt," writes Deleuze, "thatam an empiricist, that is, a pluralist." Announced in his very first book on David Hume, then pursued in his early studies of Nietzsche and Bergson and in his later "cl ..

Experience and Empiricism: Hegel, Hume, and the Early Deleuze
by Ford, Russell       
(Paperback - English - 9780810145603)
A clarifying examination of Gilles Deleuze's first book shows how he would later transform the problem of immanence into the problem of difference Despite the wide reception Gilles Deleuze has received across the humanities, research on his early work has remained scant. Experience and Empiricism remedies that gap with a detailed study of Deleuze's first book, Empiricism and Subjectivity , which is devoted to the philosophical project of David Hume. Russell Ford argues that this work is poorly understood when read simply as a stand-alone study on Hume. Its significance only becomes apparent within the context of a larger problematic that dominated, and conti ..

Empiricism and Rationalism Kantian Approach
by E, Sumitha       
(Paperback - English - 9788548407130)
Introduction Immanuel Kant's writings have provided an 'epistemological turn' in Western philosophy during the so-called Age of Enlightenment. Empiricism and Rationalism are two major historical movements in the early modern period of philosophy that had a significant impact on Kant. The Empiricists sought to have knowledge through the senses and a posteriori reasoning. The Rationalists attempted to use a priori reasoning to have knowledge. Kant argues that both the method and the content of the argument contain serious flaws. Kant's crucial insight here is to argue that experience of the world is only possible if the mind provides a systematic structuring of it ..

The Architectonic of Reason: Purposiveness and Systematic Unity in Kant's Critique of Pure Reason
by Ypi, Lea       
(Hardcover - English - 9780198748526)
The Architectonic of Pure Reason, one of the most important sections of Kant's first Critique, raises three fundamental questions. What canknow? What shoulddo? What mayhope? Taken together these questions converge on a fourth one, which is at the centre of philosophy as a whole: what is the human being? Lea Ypi suggests that the answer to this question is tied to a particular account of the unity of reason - one that stresses its purposive character. By focusing on the sources, evolution and function of Kant's concept of purposiveness, this book shows that the idea of purposiveness that Kant endorses in the Critique of Pure Reason is a concept of purposiveness ..

Three Dialogues between Hylas and Philonous
by Berkeley, George       
(Hardcover - English - 9781644394083)
George Berkeley also known as Bishop Berkeley, was an Anglo-Irish philosopher whose primary achievement was the advancement of a theory he called "immaterialism" (later referred to as "subjective idealism" by others). This theory contends that individuals can only know directly sensations and ideas of objects, not abstractions such as "matter". The theory also contends that ideas are dependent upon being perceived by minds for their very existence, a belief that became immortalized in the dictum, "Esse est percipi" ("To be is to be perceived"). His most widely-read works are A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge and Three Dialogues between Hyla ..

Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding
by Hume, David       
(Hardcover - English - 9781947844773)
David Hume penned this enquiry in the 1700s, anticipating many of the arguments of skeptics, empiricists, and atheists by centuries. His arguments against miracles and whether or not human testimony provides sufficient evidence for belief in them are raised to the present day, although it must be said that if they are still being raised, they may not be the proverbial 'nail in the coffin' for religion (and Christianity in particular) that skeptical philosophers believe. In this edition, reprinted from the 1777 edition published after Hume's death, the reader is invited to hear the arguments directly, and come to one's own conclusions. ..

Carnap Et La Question Transcendantale

On connait generalement Carnap pour ses travaux au sein du Cercle de Vienne, pour son influence sur la philosophie americaine de la seconde moitie du XXe siecle ou pour ses theses empiristes radicales, verificationnistes et reductionnistes. C'est un autre Carnap qui est presente ici: le philosophe allemand des annees 1920 - de sa these de doctorat sur l'espace a la Construction logique du monde - deja a la recherche d'une maniere satisfaisante de combiner un empirisme radical avec la confiance dans le pouvoir de la logique de clarifier la constitution du monde, mais encore profondement marque par le kantisme, le neokantisme voire la phenomenologie.

The History of Understanding in Analytic Philosophy: Around Logical Empiricism
by Tuboly, Adam Tamas       
(Hardcover - English - 9781350159204)
Interpretive understanding of human behaviour, known as verstehen, underpins the divide between the social sciences and the natural sciences. Taking a historically orientated approach, this collection offers a fresh take on the development of understanding within analytic philosophy before, during and after logical empiricism. In doing so, it reinvigorates debates on the role of the social sciences within contemporary epistemology. Bringing together leading experts including Martin Kusch, Thomas Uebel, Karsten Stueber and Giuseppina D'Oro, it is an authoritative reference on the logical empiricists' philosophy of social science. Charting the various reformul ..

Human Knowledge: A Classic Statement of Logical Empiricism
by Kaila, Eino    Reisch, George A.    Korhonen, Anssi
(Paperback - English - 9780812698480)
Finnish philosopher Eino Kaila wrote a classic statement of logical empiricism. Having experienced the foundational debates of the Vienna Circle in 1929, Kaila was a keen follower of the further developments of the Circle. His synoptic presentation and analysis of the basic themes, or "theses," of the movement was based on his lectures as professor of theoretical philosophy at the University of Helsinki. The work appeared as a book in Finnish in 1939 and a Swedish translation by Georg Henrik von Wright followed immediately. Earlier, a translation of his philosophical essays from the original German, entitled Reality and Experience , appeared in 1979. However, th ..

An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding (with an Introduction by L. A. Selby-Bigge)
by Hume, David    Selby-Bigge, L. a.   
(Paperback - English - 9781420957273)
Disappointed by the public reception to "A Treatise of Human Nature", published anonymously between 1739 and 1740, David Hume decided to produce a shorter more polemic version of that work nearly ten years later. That revision, which was published in 1748, would be entitled "An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding". Dispensing with much of the extraneous material from the "Treatise", Hume focuses on his more vital propositions in the "Enquiry". Proceeding in incremental steps Hume discusses the following concepts: "The Different Species of Philosophy", "The Origin of Ideas", "The Association of Ideas", "Sceptical Doubts Concerning the Operations of the Underst ..
