Locke's Touchy Subjects: Materialism and Immortality
ISBN: 9780198737094 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In seventeenth-century philosophy the mind-body problem and the nature of personal immortality were two of the most controversial and sensitive issues. Nicholas Jolley seeks to show that these issues are more prominent in Locke's philosophy than has been realized. He argues further that Locke takes up unorthodox positions in both cases. Although Locke's official stance on the mind-body problem is agnostic, in places he presents arguments that, taken together, amount to a significant case for a weak form of materialism. Locke also seeks to show that the solution to the mind-body problem is...

A remarkable thinker, Gottfried Leibniz made fundamental contributions not only to philosophy, but also to the development of modern mathematics and science.

This volume provides a systematic and comprehensive account of the full range of Leibniz's thought, exploring the metaphysics in detail and showing its subtle and complex relationship to his views on logic, language, physics, and theology.

Causality and Mind: Essays on Early Modern Philosophy
ISBN: 9780199669554 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Causality and Mind presents seventeen of Nicholas Jolley's essays on early modern philosophy, which focus on two main themes. One theme is the continuing debate over the nature of causality in the period from Descartes to Hume. Jolley shows that, despite his revolutionary stance, Descartes did no serious re-thinking about causality; it was left to his unorthodox disciple Malebranche to argue that there is no place for natural causality in the new mechanistic picture of the physical world. Several essays explore critical reactions to Malebranche's occasionalism in the writings of Leibniz,...

The Light of the Soul: Theories of Ideas in Leibniz, Malebranche, and Descartes
ISBN: 9780198238195 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The concept of an "idea" played a central role in 17th-century theories of mind and knowledge, but philosophers were divided over the nature of ideas. This book examines an important, but little-known, debate on this question in the work of Leibniz, Malebranche, and Descartes. Looking closely at the issues involved, as well as the particular context in which the debate took place, Jolley demonstrates that the debate has serious implications for a number of major topics in 17th-century philosophy.

ISBN: 9780198791706 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Nicholas Jolley argues that Locke's three greatest works - An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, Two Treatises of Government, and Epistola de Tolerantia - are unified by a concern to promote the cause of religious toleration.
