David Hume's An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, first published in 1748, is a concise statement of Hume's central philosophical positions. It develops an account of human mental functioning which emphasizes the limits of human knowledge and the extent of our reliance on (non-rational) mental habits. It then applies that account to questions of free will and religious knowledge before closing with a defence of moderate scepticism. This volume, which presents a modified version of the definitive 1772 edition of the work, offers helpful annotation for the student reader, together with an introduction that sets this profoundly influential work in its philosophical and historical contexts. The volume also includes a selection of other works by Hume that throw light on both the circumstances of the work's genesis and its key themes and arguments.

休谟的怀疑论完全以他否定归纳原理为依据,证明了纯粹经验主义不是科学的充足基础,归纳是一个独立的逻辑原理,是从经验或从其他逻辑原理都推论不出来的,没有这个原理,便不会有科学。 彻底的经验主义带来的两个推论 1,所有的知识都只具有一定限度内的确定性,世界并不如我们...
评分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...
评分第一章、各派哲学(表述人性科学的主张) 这一章里,休谟分析了从事哲学事业的不同风格派别,其中他把精神哲学(Moral Philosophy)分为两种。 一种强调哲学对生活的影响,喜欢用哲学来指导生活,影响当世。(通俗派) 一种强调理性,强调思维达到极高的高度以使得后人受益。(...
评分一直告诫自己莫要“以己之混混而令人之昭昭”,很少推荐书。但是今天读完大卫.休谟的《人类理智研究》,真心觉得是本好书。虽然是本哲学著作,但是休谟本人优美畅达(限于吕大吉的译本)的文辞,深入浅出,阅读中一点也不觉得他是在说很枯燥的哲学问题。我觉得大学生无论文理,...

评分"Thus the observation of human blindness and weakness is the result of all philosophy, and meets us at every turn, in spite of our endeavours to elude or avoid it." (Hume, EHU, p. 33)
评分David Hume是为数不多的写作水平不错阅读流畅思考的有意思的Early Modern Philosopher啊
评分a stupendous philosophical book with insightful discussions of empirical epistemology on vital ideas like free will, miracles, the Design Argument, and mitigated scepticism, explaining skeptical doubts concerning the operations of the understanding, and building the framework of how modern people understand their knowledge and the way it's acquired
评分For Class, Hume's Philosophy of Religion. We can only learn from experience. A priori reasoning is wrong because we could make inferences from constant conjunctions of two similar objects
