Description

Explore the core of eighteenth-century thought with Hume's Philosophy of the Self, published by Routledge. While personal identity is a central theme in David Hume's work, it often receives limited attention in academic studies. This book changes that by looking past the well-known 'Of Personal Identity' section of the Treatise to examine how the concept of the Self is woven through his entire body of work. Author A. E. Pitson provides a fresh perspective on this historical subject. The text examines the distinction between our thoughts and our passions to explain how personal identity functions within Hume's philosophy. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in Western philosophy and the history of eighteenth-century ideas. It provides a deep look at the fundamental questions that define Hume's contribution to the field.
