'Commit it then to the flames: for it can contain nothing but sophistry and illusion.' Thus ends David Hume's Enquiry concerning Human Understanding, the definitive statement of the greatest philosopher in the English language. His arguments in support of reasoning from experience, and against the 'sophistry and illusion' of religiously inspired philosophical fantasies, caused controversy in the eighteenth century and are strikingly relevant today, when faith and science continue to clash. The Enquiry considers the origin and processes of human thought, reaching the stark conclusion that we can have no ultimate understanding of the physical world, or indeed our own minds. In either sphere we must depend on instinctive learning from experience, recognizing our animal nature and the limits of reason. Hume's calm and open-minded scepticism thus aims to provide a new basis for science, liberating us from the 'superstition' of false metaphysics and religion. His Enquiry remains one of the best introductions to the study of philosophy, and this edition places it in its historical and philosophical context.

评分对于休谟来说,几何学里清晰明白的证明,和日常生活中可疑的论断,在本质上并无区别:它们的“对错”只是取决于它们"vividness"的多少而已。而vividness归根结底只是一种感情。如此说来,人类不是理性的动物,而是感性的。Treatise里好像有这么一句: Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions, and can never pretend to any other office than to serve and obey them.

休谟的这本书我主要关心他如何考虑了人的知识形成。其他关于自由以及神迹部分不感兴趣。 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 考察对象 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 考虑两类研究对象:第一是观念的关系,第二是实际的事情。前者是纯粹靠人的思考就可以进行。最典型的是数...
评分一 休谟给自己写的自传中说,自己不喜欢学法律,也尝试了经商,但是毫无兴趣,唯一的热爱,在于思考哲学和一般学问。老王说,每个人一生都有一个主题。休谟就是哲学沉思,就像苏格拉底的探索知识,笛卡尔、康德和斯宾诺莎也是如此。或许我也是如此,因为我在别的很多工作或生活...
评分When we go through libraries, convinced of these principles, what havoc must we make? If we take in our hand any volume - of divinity or school metaphysics, for instance - let us ask, Does it contain any abstract reasoning about quantity or number? No. Does...
评分博尔赫斯有一篇有名的短篇小说--《死亡与指南针》,里面说了这样一个戏剧性的故事:有个热衷推理的警长在12月3日发现了一起凶杀案,在凶案现场,警长把一部宗教意味浓厚的书跟一个字母作为重要线索,并登载在报纸上。巧的是,1月3日又发生了一起死亡事件,而且现场出现...
评分休谟问题的最大贡献,就在于给哲学和自然科学提出了最具基础性的问题,因为他所质疑的,是知识大厦之所以能够伫立的最基础的地基。或许这个问题本身就是无解的,就像每个哲学家都在思考的“哲学是什么”或“人是什么”一样,答案永远没有找到的一天,对于地基的撼动似乎并没有...
