What, according to Hume, are objects? Ideas? Impressions? Mind-independent objects? All three? None of the above? Through a close textual analysis, Rocknak shows that Hume thought that objects are imagined ideas. But, she argues, he struggled with two accounts of how and when we imagine such ideas. On the one hand, Hume believed that we always and universally imagine that objects are the causes of our perceptions. On the other hand, he thought that we only imagine such causes when we reach a “philosophical” level of thought. This tension manifests itself in Hume’s account of personal identity; a tension that, Rocknak argues, Hume acknowledges in the Appendix to the .Treatise.. As a result of Rocknak’s detailed account of Hume’s conception of objects, we are forced to accommodate new interpretations of, at least, Hume’s notions of belief, personal identity, justification and causality.. | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | 关键词 | Conception of Objects; David Hume; Imagined Causes; Modern Philosophy; Objects Hume; Treatise of Human Na | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-2187-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-9835-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-2187-6Series ISSN 1879-8578 Series E-ISSN 2352-2585 | issn_series | 1879-8578 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2013 |
