An Essay Concerning Humane Understanding V1 - John Locke - Bog

An Essay Concerning Humane Understanding Volume 1 is a philosophical work written by John Locke. This book is a comprehensive study of human knowledge and understanding, exploring the nature of perception, ideas, and the mind. Locke argues that all knowledge is derived from experience and that the mind is a blank slate at birth, with no innate ideas or knowledge. He also discusses the role of language in shaping our understanding of the world and the limits of human knowledge. The book is divided into four parts, covering topics such as the nature of ideas, the origin of knowledge, the role of perception, and the limits of human understanding. This seminal work is considered one of the most important works of modern philosophy and has had a profound influence on subsequent philosophical thought.Besides what we have already mentioned concerning ideas, other considerations belong to them, in reference to THINGS FROM WHENCE THEY ARE TAKEN, or WHICH THEY MAY BE SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT; and thus, I think, they may come under a threefold distinction, and are: --First, either real or fantastical; Secondly, adequate or inadequate; Thirdly, true or false.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
