Immediate Perception as Held by Reid and Hamilton Considered as a Refutation of the Skepticism of Hume (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
A clear, professor-voiced argument about how we know the external world, through Reid, Hamilton, and Hume, in light of Latimer’s study.
This book-length examination tackles how late 19th-century scholars defend or critique our belief in external objects. It weighs Reid’s claim that perception arises from our nature, the role of sensation and memory, and whether these data truly prove an external world. It also analyzes Hamilton’s Law of the Conditioned and its implications for cause, effect, and the idea of substance, all against Hume’s skepticism. The author foregrounds how these positions relate to Kantian influence and the broader debate about common sense in philosophy.
Readers will encounter these core ideas as a sustained conversation about what we can know, how our minds shape that knowledge, and whether the external world can be said to exist independently of perception. The work traces method, evidence, and the limits of reason in constructing a reliable picture of reality.
- How Reid describes immediate perception and the data of common sense
- What Hamilton’s Law of the Conditioned contributes to debates about knowledge and perception
- How Hume’s skepticism is addressed, and where Kantian influence appears
- The ongoing question of substance, causation, and the structure of belief
Ideal for readers of the history of philosophy, perception theory, and the long dialogue about knowing the external world.
