Ideas, Mental Faculties and Method: The Logic of Ideas of Descartes and Locke and Its Reception in the Dutch Republic, 1630-1750 de Paul Schuurman

Ideas, Mental Faculties and Method: The Logic of Ideas of Descartes and Locke and Its Reception in the Dutch Republic, 1630-1750: Brill's Studies in Intellectual History, cartea 125

Autor Paul Schuurman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 dec 2003
The seventeenth century was a period of dramatic change in the field of philosophy. In logic, traditional Aristotelian textbooks were transformed by the emergence of an alternative ‘logic of ideas’. This new logic was developed by Descartes and Locke, its main representatives, and by Arnauld and Malebranche. The present study starts with a fresh and detailed analysis of the logic of ideas. The author then puts the fruitfulness of his characterization of the new logic to the test, by studying its reception in the eclectic intellectual environment of the Dutch Republic between 1690 and 1750. This is the first comprehensive study of the early modern logic of ideas. It is also a profound contribution to our understanding of the interaction between Aristotelianism and new philosophy and between rationalism and empiricism.

Recenzii

"This is a timely and interesting book which is deserving of the attentions of specialistsin early modern philosophy."
Martin Stone, Tijdschrift voor Filosofie, 2005.

"His attachment to categories and models notwithstanding therefore, he uncovers the dappled light of the logic of ideas and, accordingly, bequeaths us an important book."
Hannah Dawson, Locke Studies.

"Focused and scholarly without being recondite, sustained and thorough without being turgid, it is an impressively accessible work which will relate and engage with a variety of audiences, as it marshals vital philosophical themes together with a truly impressive array of historical evidence. The result is an interesting thesis set against the backdrop of a rigorous survey of one of Western thought's most formative periods...different audiences will get different things from Ideas, Mental Faculties and Method as it is a pleasingly well-written monograph, whose cogency is held together by both its overall lucidity of structure and expression. Those with only a tangential or less familiar understanding of the issues discussed will find Schuurman's patience and generosity of discussion welcoming."
Tim Flanagan, JEMH, 2005.
