Book excerpt: L'Essai sur les origines des connaissances humaines, publie en 1746, constitue une piece majeure dans l'histoire de la reception francaise de Locke, dont Condillac revise la methode et les resultats. Il montre le role des signes dans les progres de l'esprit humain; il interroge les circonstances concretes qui determinent ce processus; il radicalise l'entreprise reductionniste, en decouvrant la genese, non plus seulement des connaissances, mais bien des facultes. Cette tentative illustre une these capitale sur la solidarite des operations de l'ame et du materiau (sensible) auquel elles s'appliquent, qui oriente egalement la lecture des grands systemes classiques: c'est a l'aune de cet empirisme rigoureux, appuye sur la methode analytique, que Condillac discute (et parfois utilise) Descartes, Spinoza, Leibniz ou Malebranche. Ainsi l'auteur de l'Essai peut-il affirmer qu'il reforme, non seulement Locke, mais la metaphysique elle-meme, desormais limitee a la theorie de la connaissance: la prise de conscience des principes est toujours solidaire d'une reflexion de l'esprit sur son histoire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Traite des systemes is a milestone in the intellectual history of the eighteenth century. This is a study of its content, structure, sources and importance. It includes a discussion of Condillac's analysis of good and bad systems, the adequacy of his knowledge and under standing of the speculative metaphysics of the preceding century, the effectiveness of his method of attack on seventeenth-century metaphysical systems, his conception of empirical and scientific method, and in particular his understanding of the role of hypotheses, his application of the Newtonian scientific method to politics, physics, and the arts, and, finally, his preoccupation with the meaning of words and with the origin and purpose oflanguage. Speculative metaphysical systems, such as those of Descartes, Malebranche, Boursier, Leibniz and Spinoza, are attacked by Con dillac, as are popular superstitions and prejudices, with the weapon of linguistic criticism. It is the systematic use of this weapon which makes the Traite des systemes more than a reflection of his contem poraries' antipathy towards speculative metaphysics. In memory of my MOTHER and FATHER ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to acknowledge my indebtedness to several people. I should like first and foremost to thank Dr. W. H. Barber, who has for many years tirelessly given me encouragement and invaluable assistance. I wish to thank also Professors RH. Rasmussen, A. D. Wilshere and C. Wake for their help and their support in the early days of the preparation of this study. lowe special thanks also to Mrs. M. V.

Book excerpt: "The last great work of the age of reason, the final instance when all human knowledge could be presented with a single point of view ... Unabashed optimism, and unabashed racism, pervades many entries in the 11th, and provide its defining characteristics ... Despite its occasional ugliness, the reputation of the 11th persists today because of the staggering depth of knowledge contained with its volumes. It is especially strong in its biographical entries. These delve deeply into the history of men and women prominent in their eras who have since been largely forgotten - except by the historians, scholars"-- The Guardian, https://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2012/apr/10/encyclopedia-britannica-11th-edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Les empiristes franco-berlinois, au XVIIIe siècle, ne conçoivent pas seulement l'expérience comme l'origine des connaissances humaines, mais encore comme le principe de leur exposition systématique bien fondée : la voie de l'invention, supposée partir du sensible, acquiert le titre de méthode analytique. Cette décision entraîne deux difficultés majeures. 1) L'expérience primitive et principielle ne réside pas dans la passivité d'une sensation introuvable, mais dans le moment où l'esprit s'applique au matériau donné, c'est-à-dire dans la réflexion. Mais il faut savoir ce que cette réflexion, dont les empiristes introduisent le concept en philosophie, révèle de l'esprit qui la met en oeuvre et si elle est susceptible d'une explication réductionniste. 2) Les critiques que formule Leibniz et qui se feront entendre jusqu'au XXe siècle semblent définitives : les sciences mathématiques sont fondées sur des principes qui, de droit, ne sauraient rappeler leur origine présumée dans l'expérience sensible, faute de perdre la généralité et la nécessité qui déterminent la valeur de leurs concepts. Or cette objection est répétée en site empiriste et elle engendre une tension essentielle : on doit penser dans leur stricte originalité des principes qu'on devrait pourtant réduire au rang d'abstractions dérivées. Chez les auteurs qui nourriront Kant, l'analyse prend alors pour objet les relations des sciences constituées les unes avec les autres, plutôt que les premiers pas de l'esprit : l'effectivité des concepts plutôt que la puissance du sujet Les pôles distingués dans cet ouvrage - un empirisme de la genèse et un empirisme de la constitution - révèlent ainsi la véritable urgence d'oppositions fondamentales en philosophie de la connaissance"--P. [4] of cover.
