Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Meditations and Selections From the Principles of Rene Descartes, 1596 1650: Translated by John Veitch, LL. D There only remains, therefore, the idea of God, in which I must consider whether there is anything that cannot be supposed to originate with myself. By the name God, I understand a sgfiiggggjnfinite, [eterna1, immutable], independent, all - knowing, all-powerful, and by which I myself, and every other thing that ex ists, if any such there be, were created. But these properties are so great and excellent, that the more at tentively I consider them the less I feel persuaded that the idea I have of them owes its origin to myself alone. And thus it is absolutely necessary to conclude, from all that I have before said, that God exists: for though the idea of substance be in my mind owing to this, that I myself am a substance, I should not, however, have the idea of an infinite substance, seeing I am a finite being, unless it were given me by some substance in reality infinite.

Book Selections from the Principles of Philosophy

Download or read book Selections from the Principles of Philosophy written by René Descartes and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selections from The Principles of Philosophy Of Rene Descartes (1596-1650) Translated by John Veitch Principles of Philosophy is a book by Rene Descartes. In essence, it is a synthesis of the Discourse on Method and Meditations on First Philosophy It was written in Latin, published in 1644 and dedicated to Elisabeth of Bohemia, with whom Descartes had a long-standing friendship. A French version (Les Principes de la Philosophie) followed in 1647. It set forth the principles of nature--the Laws of Physics--as Descartes viewed them. Most notably, it set forth the principle that in the absence of external forces, an object's motion will be uniform and in a straight line. Newton borrowed this principle from Descartes and included it in his own Principia; to this day, it is still generally referred to as Newton's First Law of Motion. The present volume contains a reprint of the preface and the first part of the Principles of Philosophy, together with selections from the second, third and fourth parts of that work, corresponding to the extracts in the French edition of Gamier, are also given, as well as an appendix containing part of Descartes' reply to the Second Objections (viz., his formal demonstrations of the existence of Deity). The translation is based on the original Latin edition of the Principles, published in 1644. The work had been translated into French during Descartes' lifetime, and personally revised and corrected by him, the French text is evidently deserving of the same consideration as the Latin originals, and consequently, the additions and variations of the French version have also been given--the additions being put in square brackets in the text and the variations in the footnotes. A copy of the title-page of the original edition, as given in Dr. C. Guttler's work (Munich: C. H. Beck. 1901), are also reproduced in the present volume.

Book Discourse On Method  Meditations And Principles

Download or read book Discourse On Method Meditations And Principles written by Rene Descartes and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the celebrated words 'I think therefore I am', Descartes' compelling argument swept aside ancient and medieval traditions. He deduced that human beings consist of minds and bodies; that these are totally distinct 'substances'; that God exists and that He ensures we can trust the evidence of our senses. Ushering in the 'scientific revolution' of Galileo and Newton, Descartes' ideas have also set the agenda for debate ever since. By calling everything into doubt, Descartes laid the foundations of modern philosophy.

Download or read book Meditations on First Philosophy Other Metaphysical Writings written by René Descartes and published by Arcturus Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Meditations on First Philosophy is one of Descartes's best-known works and one of the most influential philosophical texts ever written, this treatise offers Descartes' metaphysical views on the relationship between the mind and thought, the nature of reality and how accumulated knowledge and our experiences affect us. First published in 1641, the work consists of six meditations on the following topics: the dubiousness of thoughts and assumptions - as Descartes puts it, 'what can be called into doubt'; the nature of the human mind; the existence of God; truth versus falsehood; the essence of material things and, finally, the difference between mind and body. For anyone interested in the study of philosophy, this is an essential and illuminating read. This volume also includes the great philosopher's Discourse on the Method, a brilliant discussion of reasoning and experimentation which helped establish the foundations of the scientific process, a selection of enlightening essays from his Principles of Philosophy and a classic introduction by Frank Sewall.
