DAVID HUME AND IMMANUEL KANT PHILOSOPHY TOGETHER IN ONE VOLUME 'One of the greatest of all philosophical works, covering knowledge, imagination, emotion, morality, and justice.' David Hume's comprehensive three-volume A Treatise of Human Nature has withstood the test of time and has had enormous impact on subsequent philosophical thought. The Treatise first explains how we form such concepts as cause and effect, external existence, and personal identity, and to form compelling but unconfirmable beliefs in the entities represented by these concepts. The second part surveys the passions, from pride and humility to contempt and respect, analyzing their roles in human choices and actions. The book concludes with a meditation on morals and an in-depth explanation of the perceived distinctions between virtue and vice. Kant's Critique of Pure Reason is the central text of modern philosophy. It presents a profound and challenging investigation into the nature of human reason, its knowledge and its illusions. Reason, Kant argues, is the seat of certain concepts that precede experience and make it possible, but we are not therefore entitled to draw conclusions about the natural world from these concepts. The Critique brings together the two opposing schools of philosophy: rationalism, which grounds all our knowledge in reason, and empiricism, which traces all our knowledge to experience. Kant's transcendental idealism indicates a third way that goes far beyond these alternatives.
Autorenporträt
David Hume (7 May 1711 NS - 25 August 1776) was a Scottish Enlightenment philosopher, student of history, economist, librarian, and writer. He is most popular for his profoundly persuasive philosophical empiricism, skepticism, and naturalism. argued against the presence of intrinsic thoughts, positing that all human information derives solely from experience. He studied philosophy at the College of Edinburgh at an abnormally early age of 12 or 13. Hume never wedded and resided partly at his Berwickshire home in Chirnside, which had a place with his family beginning around 1604. Hume's doctor determined him to have the "Sickness of the Learned" after he created scurvy and different maladies. He was secretary to General James St Clair, who was an emissary to Turin and Vienna. Hume wrote A Treatise of Human Nature in 1738 and The History of England in 1754. In 1745, during the Jacobite risings, Hume mentored the Marquess of Annandale (1720-92), an engagement that finished in confusion. He is viewed as one of the main philosophers to write in English. The David Hume Tower, a University of Edinburgh building, was renamed in a protest over his writing on race.
