Bog beskrivelse
Terence Penelhum presents a selection of the best of his essays on Hume, most of them quite recent, and three of them not published elsewhere. The central themes of the book are selfhood, the will, and religious belief.Penelhum argues that Hume''s sceptical conclusions on personal identity are based on conceptual confusions, but that the common charge of circularity made against him is unfounded. He examines the role Hume gives the idea of the self in his analysis of the passions, the dissonance between the account of the self in the first book of the Treatise of Human Nature and that found in the second, and the reasons for Hume''s own dissatisfaction with his views on this theme.The essays on the will examine Hume''s famous attacks on rationalist understandings of human motives, and try to expose the deficiencies in his ''compatibilist'' interpretation of freedom.The discussion of Hume''s views on religion relates them to his scepticism and to his doctrine of natural belief. Penelhum maintains that Hume''s ultimate views on religion are to be found in the harshly negative judgements of the first Enquiry, which he did not ever see reason to modify.Penelhum''s essays will be fascinating for all who work on these themes, whether from an eighteenth-century or a twentieth-century perspective.
