A master stylist in any genre, Hume's major philosophical works A Treatise of Human Nature (1739-1740), the Enquiries concerning Human Understanding (1748) and concerning the Principles of Morals (1751), as well as the posthumously published Dialogues concerning Natural Religion (1779) remain widely and deeply influential, despite their being denounced by many of his contemporaries as works of scepticism and atheism. While Hume's influence is evident in the moral philosophy and economic writings of his close friend Adam Smith, he also awakened Immanuel Kant from his "dogmatic slumbers" and "caused the scales to fall" from Jeremy Bentham's eyes. Charles Darwin counted Hume as a central influence, as did "Darwin's bulldog," Thomas Henry Huxley. The diverse directions in which these writers took what they gleaned from reading Hume reflect not only the richness of their sources but also the wide range of Hume's empiricism. Comtemporary philosophers recognize Hume as one of the most thoroughgoing exponents of philosophical naturalism.

David Hume, 1711-1776. One of the greatest philosophers in Western history, as well as an accomplished historian, economist, perennial skeptic and delightful fellow. David Hume was one of the most prominent figures of the Scottish Enlightenment and a close friend of Adam Smith . Hume's contributions to economics are found mostly in his Political Discourses (1752), which were later incorporated into his Essays Hume was a virulent anti-Mercantilist . He was adamant that wealth was measured by the stock of commodities of a nation, not its stock of money. He was also one of the better articulators of the Quantity Theory and the neutrality of money ("It is none of the wheels of trade: it is the oil which renders the motion of the wheels more smooth and easy", Of Money , 1752). Contrary to the Mercantilists, Hume related low interest rates not to abundant money, but to booming commerce. He was one of the first to spell out the "loanable funds" theory of interest, arguing that interest rates are determined by the demand for loans and the supply of saving. Low interest rates are thus symptoms of a booming, commercial economy, where thrift and the desire for gain and accumulation take hold. However, he admitted that in the short-run (and only the short-run), a rising supply of money could have a beneficial effect on industry.

Dwukrotnie ubiega³ siê o katedrê uniwersyteck± (1744 Edynburg i 1751 Glasgow), ale jego wniosek odrzucono ze wzglêdu na pogl±dy. Pracowa³ w dyplomacji (m.in. 1763-1766 sekretarz poselstwa w Pary¿u). Przedstawiciel empiryzmu . Bada³ nie rzeczy, lecz ich umys³owe przedstawienia, które dzieli³ na pierwotne wra¿enia i pochodz±ce od nich idee twierdz±c, ¿e te drugie o tyle maj± warto¶æ poznawcz±, o ile wiernie kopiuj± te pierwsze. Przeprowadzi³ s³ynn± krytykê pojêcia zwi±zku przyczynowego, który - obok zasad podobieñstwa oraz czasowej i przestrzennej styczno¶ci - uwa¿a³ za jedn± z trzech podstaw kojarzenia idei. Stwierdzi³, ¿e obserwacja faktów poucza jedynie o sta³ym ich nastêpstwie, nigdy za¶ o wynikaniu jednych z drugich, a konstatacja takiego wynikania jest kwesti± arbitralnej projekcji do¶wiadczeñ przesz³ych na przysz³o¶æ. Na podobnych przes³ankach opar³ krytykê pojêcia substancji, z tym ¿e podstaw± ³±czenia faktów by³o w tym przypadku ich ustawiczne wspó³wystêpowanie. W konsekwencji twierdzi³, ¿e przedmiotem rzetelnego poznania mog± byæ tylko relacje idei w umy¶le (tymi zajmuje siê matematyka) oraz czyste fakty brane tak, jak jawi± siê w praktyce ¿yciowej, instynktownie, nie metafizycznie, zatem bez pytania o ich naturê i pochodzenie, ani o to, czy istniej± realnie, czy przeciwnie: s± jak±¶ form± z³udzenia - takie kwestie wykraczaj± zdaniem Hume'a poza mo¿liwo¶ci poznawcze cz³owieka. Wskazywa³ te¿, ¿e prawdy wiary s± niedowodliwe i ¿e niemo¿liwa jest racjonalna teoria Boga - postulowa³ badanie religii z punktu widzenia psychologii i historii.

His background was politically Whiggish and religiously Calvinistic. As a child he faithfully attended the local Church of Scotland pastored by his uncle. Hume was educated by his widowed mother until he left for the University of Edinburgh at the age of eleven. His letters describe how as a young student he took religion seriously and obediently followed a list of moral guidelines taken from The Whole Duty of Man , a popular Calvinistic devotional. Leaving the University of Edinburgh at around age fifteen to pursue his education privately, he was encouraged to consider a career in law, but his interests turned to philosophy. During these years of private study he began raising serious questions about religion, as he recounts in the following letter: Tis not long ago that I burn'd an old Manuscript Book, wrote before I was twenty; which contain'd, Page after Page, the gradual Progress of my Thoughts on that head [i.e. religious belief]. It begun with an anxious Search after Arguments, to confirm the common Opinion: Doubts stole in, dissipated, return'd, were again dissipated, return'd again.

Il fait progresser considérablement l'examen de ces diverses questions, et de nos jours il occupe encore le premier rang parmi les ouvrages classiques de philosophie. Mais en attendant il n'avait pas de succès. «Il échappa, dit Hume, mort-né à la presse et n'eut même pas l'honneur d'exciter les murmures des fanatiques.» L'ambition littéraire de Hume, qui l'induisit à déclarer mort-née l'excellente production de son esprit, eut un effet funeste. Il chercha à acquérir la gloire que celle-ci ne lui avait pas rapportée au moyen d'une série de petits essais (Essays) Essais.

David Hume Special thanks to the Microsoft Corporation for their contribution to our site. The following information came from Microsoft Encarta. Here is a hyperlink to the Microsoft Encarta home page. http://www.encarta.msn.com Hume, David (1711-76), Scottish historian and philosopher, who influenced the development of skepticism and empiricism, two schools of philosophy. Born in Edinburgh on May 7, 1711, Hume was educated at home and at the University of Edinburgh, at which he matriculated at the age of 12. His health was poor, and after working for a short period in a business house in Bristol, he went to live in France. Life and Writings From 1734 to 1737 Hume occupied himself intensively with the problems of speculative philosophy and during this period wrote his most important philosophical work, A Treatise of Human Nature (3 vol., 1739-40), which embodies the essence of his thinking. In spite of its importance, this work was ignored by the public and was, as Hume himself said, "dead-born," probably because of its abstruse style. Hume's later works were written in the lighter essay or dialogue forms that were popular in his day. After the publication of the Treatise

( David Hume When we look about us towards external objects, and consider the operation of causes, we are never able, in a single instance, to discover any power or necessary connexion; any quality, which binds the effect to the cause, and renders the one an infallible consequence of the other. There is required a medium, which may enable the mind to draw such an inference, if indeed it be drawn by reasoning and argument. What that medium is, I must confess, passes my comprehension; and it is incumbent on those to produce it, who assert that it really exists, and is the origin of all our conclusions concerning matter of fact. This question I propose as much for the sake of information, as with an intention of raising difficulties. I cannot find, I cannot imagine any such reasoning. But I keep my mind still open to instruction, if any one will vouchsafe to bestow it upon me.
