The Works of George Berkeley, D.D., Formerly Bishop of Cloyne, Including Many of His Writings Hitherto Unpublished: The Pure Philosophical Works (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781143553271)

This collection, "The Works of George Berkeley, D.D., Formerly Bishop of Cloyne, Including Many of His Writings Hitherto Unpublished: The Pure Philosophical Works," presents the core philosophical writings of the influential 18th-century Irish philosopher, George Berkeley. Berkeley, renowned for his empiricist and idealist philosophy, argued that reality is fundamentally mental. This volume offers a comprehensive selection of his treatises, essays, and dialogues, showcasing his unique perspective on perception, existence, and the nature of reality.

Readers will find key works that articulate Berkeley's immaterialism, a doctrine asserting that physical objects exist only as perceptions within minds. Explore Berkeley's innovative ideas and his critiques of materialism, as well as his profound impact on subsequent philosophical thought. This edition is an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history of philosophy and the development of modern metaphysics.
