Principles of Human Knowledge and Three Dialogues Between Hylas and Philonous

Más información sobre el libro

Subjective idealism is the central theme explored in this influential work by George Berkeley, an Irish philosopher. In "Principles of Human Knowledge," he argues that reality is shaped by human perception, dismissing any external reality beyond our senses. The book faced criticism from contemporaries like John Locke, prompting Berkeley to respond with "Three Dialogues Between Hylas and Philonous," which presents a dialogue addressing these objections. Together, these works delve into complex philosophical ideas such as conceptual relativity and phenomenalism, making them essential reading for philosophy students.
