Description

Explore the depth of George Berkeley's intellectual contributions with Berkeley and Irish Philosophy. Part of the Continuum Studies in British Philosophy series, this collection by David Berman provides a detailed examination of Berkeley's life work. The text moves beyond his well-known period of 1709-1713 to investigate his later writings, including Alciphron (1732) and the enigmatic Siris (1744). This book addresses specific philosophical problems, such as the visual phenomena discussed in Berkeley's New Theory of Vision (1709) regarding the moon's appearance on the horizon. It also challenges common academic views, specifically questioning the idea that Berkeley's critiques of materialism were directed solely at Locke. For students and scholars of history and schools of thought, this work offers a fresh perspective on the evolution of Berkeley's ideas and his historical context.
