An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding

Viac o knihe

David Hume's work presents a refined exploration of human understanding, revising his earlier, less successful Treatise of Human Nature. Published in 1748, this shorter, more accessible text aims to engage a wider audience with Hume's empiricist philosophy. The book delves into the nature of knowledge and belief, reflecting Hume's desire to clarify and promote his ideas after the lukewarm reception of his earlier publication. Through this enquiry, Hume seeks to provoke thought and discussion on the foundations of human cognition.
