    Extractions: This is cassette 12, concerned with more connexions between late medieval and early modern thought. The first writer we will look at is George Berkeley, who criticised Locke's theory of abstract ideas and put forward his own theory of universality. In the "Introduction" to his Principles of Human Knowledge (1710), Berkeley wrote: It was an endless, as well as an useless thing, to trace the Schoolmen, those great masters of abstraction, through all the manifold inextricable labyrinths of error and dispute, which their doctrine of abstract natures and notions seem to have led them into. What bickerings and controversies, and what a learned dust have been raised about these matters, and what mighty advantage hath been from thence derived to mankind, an things at this day too clearly known to need being insisted on. But despite this scorn, Berkeley enters into the cloud of dust and emerges with something quite like Ockham's theory of universals.

    Extractions: Berkeley, George (16851753) Berkeley was born in Ireland and attended Kilkenny College and Trinity College in Dublin. At a young age he was influenced by the writings of Descartes and Newton After working at Trinity, he traveled around Europe for eight years. In 1721, he wrote De motu , which rejected Newton's physics. Later he traveled to the Americas, establishing a college in Bermuda and eventually living in Newport, Rhode Island. He returned to Dublin and was made an Anglican bishop. Berkeley's major contribution was The Analyst or a Discourse Addressed to an Infidel Mathematician The infidel mathematician term referred to Halley. This book attacked the poor foundation of calculus and made fun of higher order derivatives. It questioned both Newton's fluxions and Leibniz's differentials. As a result, i t made mathematicians work harder to justify and explain their results. Major publications: De motu, The Analys t Quotation: "The method of fluxions (differential calculus) is the general key by help whereof the modern mathematicians unlock the secrets of geometry, and consequently of nature."

He countered the anti-Christian objection that there is more bad in the world than good, by suggesting that the Earth and its sinners might bear "no greater proportion to the universe of intelligences than a dungeon doth to a kingdom."

    Extractions: GEORGE BERKELEY PREFACE INTRODUCTION 2. The cause of this is thought to be the obscurity of things, or the natural weakness and imperfection of our understandings. It is said, the faculties we have are few, and those designed by nature for the support and comfort of life, and not to penetrate into the inward essence and constitution of things. Besides, the mind of man being finite, when it treats of things which partake of infinity, it is not to be wondered at if it run into absurdities and contradictions, out of which it is impossible it should ever extricate itself, it being of the nature of infinite not to be comprehended by that which is finite. 3. But, perhaps, we may be too partial to ourselves in placing the fault originally in our faculties, and not rather in the wrong use we make of them. It is a hard thing to suppose that right deductions from true principles should ever end in consequences which cannot be maintained or made consistent. We should believe that God has dealt more bountifully with the sons of men than to give them a strong desire for that knowledge which he had placed quite out of their reach. This were not agreeable to the wonted indulgent methods of Providence, which, whatever appetites it may have implanted in the creatures, doth usually furnish them with such means as, if rightly made use of, will not fail to satisfy them. Upon the whole, I am inclined to think that the far greater part, if not all, of those difficulties which have hitherto amused philosophers, and blocked up the way to knowledge, are entirely owing to ourselves- that we have first raised a dust and then complain we cannot see.

    Extractions: BERKELEY, GEORGE In 1707 Berkeley published two short mathematical tracts; in 1709, ifl his New Theory of Vision, he applied his new principle for the first time, and in the following year stated it fully in the Principles of Human Knoul edge. In these works he attacked the existing theories of externality which to the Unphilosophical mind is proved by visual evidence. He maintained that visual consciousness is merely a system of arbitrary signs which symbolize for us certain actual or possible~ tactual experiencein other words a purely conventional language. With all these defects, however, Berkeleys new conception marks a distinct stage of progress in human thought. His true place in the history of speculation may be seen from the simple observation that the difficulties or obscurities in his scheme are really the points on which later philosophy has turned. He once for all lifted the problem of metaphysics to a higher level, and, in conjunction with his successor, Hume, determined the form into which later metaphysical questions have been thrown. BIBLIOGRAPHY.The standard edition of Berkeleys works is that of A. Campbell Fraser in 4 vols. (i-ui. Works; iv. Lsfe, Letters and Dissertation) published by the Clarendon Press (1871); this edition, revised throughout and largely re-written, was re-published by the same author (i 901). Another complete edition edited by G. Sampson, with a biographical sketch by A. J. Balfour, and a useful bibliographical summary, appeared in 1897I898. Prof. Fraser also published an excellent volume of selections (5th ed., 1899), and a short general account in a volume on Berkeley in the Blackwood Phi/os. Class. For Berkeleys theory of vision see manuals of psychology (e.g. G. F. Stout, Wm. James); for his ethical views H. Sidgwick, Hist. of Ethics (.~th ed., 1902); A. Bain, Mental and
