书名: Cartesian Views: Papers Presented to Richard A. Watson (Brill's Studies in Intellectual History)
作者: Thomas M. Lennon (Editor)
出版社: Brill Academic Publishers (October 2003)
语言: English
ISBN-10: 9004132996
ISBN-13: 978-9004132993
Book Description
Many kinds of Cartesian views are treated by these papers: the views that Descartes held, views from our perspective on those views, views on Descartes held by his early critics and followers, and views that are Cartesian in outlook (not for nothing is Descartes still regarded as the father of modern philosophy.) These overlapping views provide the unity of this volume, and reflect the unity of Richard A.Watson’s philosophical work. Not least among Watson’s contributions has been his depiction of Cartesianism as a response to a set of problems within Descartes’s philosophy. The later Cartesians were not slavish followers of Descartes. The contributors to this volume might be viewed as standing to Watson as the Cartesians did to Descartes.
