    Extractions: Life His knowledge of medicine and occasional practice of the art led, in 1666, to an acquaintance with Lord Ashley (afterwards, from 1672, Earl of Shaftesbury). The acquaintance, begun accidentally, had an immediate effect on Locke's career. Without serving his connection with Oxford, he became a member of Shaftesbury's household, and seems soon to have been looked upon as indispensable in all matters domestic and political. He saved the statesman's life by a skillful operation, arranged a suitable marriage for his heir, attended the lady in her confinement, and directed the nursing and education of her son afterwards famous as the author of Characteristics . He assisted Shaftesbury also in public business, commercial and political, and followed him into the government service. When Shaftesbury was made lord chancellor in 1672, Locke became his secretary for presentations to benefices, and, in the following year, was made secretary to the board of trade. In 1675 his official life came to an end for the time with the fall of his chief. Locke's health, always delicate, suffered from the London climate. When released from the cares of office, he left England in search of health. Ten years earlier he had his first experience of foreign travel and of public employment, as secretary to Sir Walter Vane, ambassador to the Elector of Brandenburg during the first Dutch war. On his return to England, early in 1666, he declined an offer of further service in Spain, and settled again in Oxford, but was soon induced by Shaftesbury to spend a great part of his time in London. On his release from office in 1675 he sought milder air in the south of France, made leisurely journeys, and settled down for many months at Montpellier. The journal which he kept at this period is full of minute descriptions of places and customs and institutions. It contains also a record of many of the reflections that afterwards took shape in the

    Extractions: INTRODUCTION: Our story has its being in the beginning of the Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, a time of our intellectual awakening. The Enlightenment began when the Dark Ages ended, a time when the minds of men were cowed by the great mystery of the universe and their minds, through ignorance, were ruled by fears. The Enlightenment was a time when man, stepping out of his shackles, began to use his rational facilities and pulled himself out of the medieval pits of mysticism and in the process shoved aside the state and church authorities of the day. It was a spontaneous and defused movement which fed upon itself and led to the great scientific discoveries from which we all benefit today. Beliefs in natural law and universal order sprung up, which not only promoted scientific findings and advancements of a material nature, but which also gave a scientific approach to political and social issues. Thinkers expressed their thoughts in writing and read the thoughts of others, these brilliant lights of the Enlightenment included the likes of:

L'usage de la raison permet et impose à chacun de se conserver en vie par ses propres moyens tout en veillant à ne pas "envahir" le droit des autres. L’état de nature est présenté comme une période heureuse de communisme primitif. Mais contrairement à

25. Pre-History Of Cognitive Science--John Locke
    Discussion about locke's philosophical text.  
    http://www.rc.umd.edu/cstahmer/cogsci/locke.html
    
    Extractions: The Model: The foundation of Locke's cognitive model is his division of human thinking into a series of interrelated but distinct processes each with its own parameters and functions. According to Locke, all thinking can be understood first to fall into one of the two general categories of SENSATION or REFLECTION Sensation describing the way in which "our senses, conversant bout particular sensible objects, do convey into the mind several distinct perceptions of things, according to those various ways wherein those objects do affect them" (122), and Reflection being "the perception of the operations of our own mind within us, as it is employed about the ideas it has got" (123). Believing that the mind is, at birth, an "empty cabinet" (48) or a sheet of "white paper, void of all characters, without any ideas" (121), he claims that these two modes of thinking, Sensations and Reflection, are "the only originals from whence all our ideas take their beginnings" (124). Reflection can not, however, occur except as there are thoughts present to reflect upon. Thus, for Locke, all thinking begins with Sensation "The perception is the first operation of all our intellectual faculties, and the inlet of all our knowledge" (191). Locke describes the process by which the senses furnish the mind with its first thoughts as a function of mediation. Walking a line between the skeptical and materialist

Select month and date: Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec The Year You Were Born What happened the year you were born? Enter the year: John Locke 1632–1704, English philosopher, founder of British empiricism. Locke summed up the Enlightenment in his belief in the middle class and its right to freedom of conscience and right to property, in his faith in science, and in his confidence in the goodness of humanity. His influence upon philosophy and political theory has been incalculable. Life and Work Educated at Christ Church College, Oxford, he became (1660) a lecturer there in Greek, rhetoric, and philosophy. He studied medicine, and his acquaintance with scientific practice had a strong influence upon his philosophical thought and method. In 1666, Locke met Anthony Ashley Cooper, the future 1st earl of Shaftesbury, and soon became his friend, physician, and adviser. After 1667, Locke had minor diplomatic and civil posts, most of them through Shaftesbury. In 1675, after Shaftesbury had lost his offices, Locke left England for France, where he met French leaders in science and philosophy.

Locke argued in his book An Essay Concerning Human Understanding (1690) that all of our ideas are derived from sense experiences. Thus, whenever someone is born, they are born with their mind being a blank slate, a tabula rasa . All knowledge is then acquired a posteriori and none exists a priori . Thus, knowledge is necessarily limited and provisional in nature. Locke's arguments were generally well received, but he made sure that nothing on his political views was published with his name on it. In his

    http://itrs.scu.edu/mcalkins/fall99/EthicsMP3/
    
    Extractions: Piracy has been a problem for the music industry on a number of levels. Ever since the Internet began saturating American culture, the number of pirated songs available has increasingly become a serious threat to the entire music industry, especially record labels and music stores. Advanced compression techniques (mp3 format) have been distributed across the Internet that enable high quality music to be freely available to anyone on the Internet. The "mp3" fad started in dorm rooms of college students where music could be shared across the campus network with thousands of others. We investigated the ethical implications of music piracy from the perspectives of the college student and various components of the music industry. Our investigation is divided into three sections. The Case outlines the facts of a possible situation as well as the history leading up to the present situation. The Ethics section independently analyses the primary case using proven ethical theories. The Judgment section presents our opinion of what should be done to resolve these ethical issues.
