An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding

Viac o knihe

The book serves as a refined and accessible version of Hume's earlier work, aiming to clarify and emphasize key philosophical concepts. Disappointed by the initial reception of his Treatise, Hume crafted this shorter, more polemical text to engage the public. Its significant impact is underscored by Immanuel Kant's acknowledgment of it as a catalyst for his own philosophical awakening. The Enquiry has since become a cornerstone of modern philosophical literature, celebrated for its clarity and depth.
