CiNii 図書 - Alciphron, or, The minute philosopher in focus

This volume contains the four most important dialogues of George Berkeley's "Alciphron, or the Minute Philosopher" (1732) together with essays and commentaries from the 18th to the 20th centuries. "Alciphron" is Berkeley's most sustained work of philosophical theology. It also contains his final views of meaning and language, some of which (as Anthony Flew argues in his essay) anticipate those of Wittgenstein. In his introduction David Berman shows that "Alciphron" has a closer connection with Berkeley's immaterialist philosophy than is generally thought. This book aims to be of considerable interest to philosophy students, particularly those concerned with philosophy of religion and language. It will also be of interest to students in religious studies and intellectual history, since in "Alciphron" Berkeley develops one of the last great philosophical defences of religion as well as providing a shrewd account of the rise and nature of deism and atheism.

内容説明

Alciphron, or the Minute Philosopher (1732) is Berkeley's main work of philosophical theology and a crucial source of his views on meaning and language. This edition contains the four most important dialogues and a selection of critical essays and commentaries reflecting the response of such writers as Hutcheson, Mill and Antony Flew. The only single edition currently in print, it argues that Alciphron has a more important place both in the Berkeley canon and in early modern philosophy than is generally thought.
