John Locke Livres

Identité et différence Inséré par Locke dans son Essai philosophique concernant l’entendement humain , le « traité de l’identité » a laissé une trace remarquable du XVIIIe siècle à nos jours. Pour la première fois, il donne un nom aux grandes catégories de la métaphysique du sujet : the consciousness , the self , et les associe étroitement dans une problématique de la « conscience de soi ». Pour que celle-ci déploie ses possibilités et ses conflits latents, il faut cependant un moment spécifique de traduction : la proposition par le huguenot français Pierre Coste de leurs équivalents – « la con-science » et « le soi » –, fournissant à toute la philosophie continentale les moyens de sortir des apories du cartésianisme. Cet événement dont nous sommes encore tributaires, l’invention européenne de la conscience , se trouve ici étudié à travers la réédition des textes de Locke et de Coste, augmentée d’une nouvelle traduction et complétée par un commentaire et un dossier.

The Second Treatise is one of the most important political treatises ever written and one of the most far-reaching in its influence. In his provocative 15-page introduction to this edition, the late eminent political theorist C. B. Macpherson examines Locke's arguments for limited, conditional government, private property and right of revolution and suggests reasons for the appeal of these arguments in Locke's time and since.

Exploring the evolution of political thought, this collection includes foundational texts that shaped modern governance. It begins with Hobbes' view of the necessity of a strong central authority, followed by Locke's arguments for natural rights and government by consent. Rousseau's work introduces the concept of collective will and social agreements, while the Constitution of Pennsylvania exemplifies practical application of these theories in establishing a democratic framework. Together, these works highlight the transition from absolute rule to democratic principles.

Exploring foundational principles of political philosophy, this complete edition combines two of Locke's influential treatises on governance. It delves into the nature of human rights, the social contract, and the justification of government authority, emphasizing the importance of individual liberty and the rule of law. Locke's arguments laid the groundwork for modern democratic thought, making this collection essential for understanding the evolution of political theory and the role of government in society.

John Locke’s 1689 Two Treatises of Government is a pivotal text in political theory, significantly influencing modern politics and the American Constitution. This work is not only a foundational exploration of government legitimacy but also a masterclass in critical thinking, particularly in evaluation and reasoning. The first treatise serves as a thorough critique of Sir Robert Filmer’s Patriarcha, which argued for the divine right of kings, claiming that monarchs derive their authority directly from God through Biblical evidence. Locke systematically dismantles Filmer’s arguments, demonstrating their inadequacy and reliance on flawed evidence, ultimately deeming them invalid. In the second treatise, Locke articulates his own views on legitimate power and its sources. He constructs a compelling argument based on the concept of man in “the state of nature,” advocating that a civilized society should be founded on natural human rights and the social contract. Through logical reasoning and historical context, Locke lays the groundwork for modern democratic thought, emphasizing the importance of individual rights and the role of government as a protector of those rights.

WHEN YOU'VE ALREADY BETRAYED EVERYONE YOU LOVE, WHO CAN YOU TURN TO FOR HELP? Former CIA assassin Donovan Creed finds himself at odds with mob-connected Tony Spumoni and practically everyone else he knows, including his boss Darwin, lover Gwen, daughter Kimberly, protégé Callie, co-worker Lou, physician Doc Howard, assorted board members, terrorists, and even a zoo full of angry monkeys!

The book presents a series of letters written by John Locke in 1684, offering his insights on education to friends Mary and Edward Clarke regarding their son. Despite being unmarried and childless, Locke shares his influential Enlightenment philosophies, emphasizing the importance of nurturing a child's mind and character. His correspondence reflects his profound understanding of human development and the role of education in shaping individuals, making it a significant contribution to educational theory.

An Essay Concerning Human Understanding by John Locke concerns the foundation of human knowledge and understanding, and is one of the classic philosophical works of the seventeenth century.

John Locke's revolutionary writings created a sea change in political theory and, eventually, in liberal democracy in practice.

The revised edition of Peter Laslett's influential work delves into the foundational concepts of political philosophy, focusing on the nature of government and individual rights. It is celebrated for its critical analysis of social contract theory and its impact on modern political thought.

When we last encountered Donovan Creed, former CIA assassin and free lance killer, he had successfully stolen billions of dollars from the world's most lethal criminals. Now all he wants is a quiet, romantic vacation with the very sexy Rachel-no fire ants, bi-polar girlfriends, rabid squirrels, accident prone homicidal maniacs, hailstorms, hairless cats, gangs, faith healers, or pirates.

Thomas Hobbes, the royalist, is above all famous for his 'social contract theory', the appeal to the agreement that would be made among rational, free, and equal persons. His conclusion - that we should submit to the authority of an absolute and unlimited sovereign power - may not have found many followers, but his analysis remains unchallenged. John Locke, by contrast, was a parliamentarian. He argued that sovereignity resides with the people, and that the state is supreme only when bound by civil and natural law. It follows that revolution is not only a right, but sometimes an obligation. He was a strong supporter of religious freedom, and of a system of checks and balances in government. Many of his ideas were later embodied in the US constitution.

Would you let a child die if your family were threatened? When the government wants someone to disappear without a trace, they put in a call to Donovan Creed. Creed is a man of many identities, a ruthless assassin with access to all the technology that the military can offer. You don't want to take on Creed. But then again, most don't even see him coming. When Creed meets an orphaned girl, she reminds him of his own daughter, and he swears to protect her from the men who killed her parents. But when his involvement becomes public knowledge amongst the criminal fraternity, Creed and his family also become targets...

If you had to choose between your wife or your lover, who would you save? Sam Case is in trouble. He is hiding over nine billion dollars for the world's criminals – drug lords, cartel bosses, even the mafia. And now someone wants to take it all from him. With Sam's world about to be turned on its head, enter Donovan Creed (working under an assumed identity, of course) former CIA assassin. To show Sam he means business, he kidnaps the women Sam loves, and then gives him a choice: save his wife, or save his mistress.

In seinem Hauptwerk begründet Locke den erkenntnistheoretischen Empirismus, d.h. die Lehre von der Abhängigkeit des Verstandes von der Wahrnehmung

Die anonym verfassten Überlegungen zur Erziehung von J. Locke bieten einen tiefen Einblick in die komplexen Aspekte der Bildung. Locke betont, dass seine Gedanken nicht als umfassende Abhandlung verstanden werden sollten, da das Thema zahlreiche Facetten wie unterschiedliche Charaktere, Neigungen und Fehler umfasst. Er erkennt an, dass die Vielfalt der Themen so groß ist, dass sie mehrere Bände füllen könnte. Diese bescheidene Herangehensweise verdeutlicht Lockes Engagement für eine differenzierte Betrachtung der Erziehung.

Eine flammende Streitschrift gegen religiöse Der Protestant John Locke diskutiert in seinem 1689 erschienenen Sendbrief die Möglichkeit einer wahren Religion – und zeigt dabei verblüffende Der Glaube könne nicht durch äußere Gewalt erzwungen werden. Und niemand erkenne den rechten Weg zu Gott mit größerer Gewissheit als jeder Einzelne. Die radikalen Konsequenzen, die Locke zieht, berühren unmittelbar aktuelle Fragen nach der Toleranz aller Religionen.Erste Übersetzung der lateinischen Urfassung seit 1710.

Lockes philosophisches Hauptwerk wurde bereits 1671 begonnen, aber erst 1690 vollständig publiziert. Im Sendschreiben an den Leser berichtet Locke von einer mit Freunden geführten, ergebnislosen Diskussion, die ihn auf den Gedanken gebracht habe, solchen Sacherörterungen eine Untersuchung der Leistungsfähigkeit des menschlichen Verstandesvermögens voranzuschicken. Die Durchführung dieses kritischen Programms beginnt - nach der Widerlegung der überkommenen Lehre von den angeborenen Ideen und Grundsätzen (Buch 1) - mit dem Aufweis des empirischen Ursprungs des gesamten Materials der menschlichen Erkenntnis (Buch 2) und endet - nach einer später eingeschobenen Erörterung über Sprache und Denken (Buch 3) - mit einer Bestimmung der Grenzen und Arten der Erkenntnis (Buch 4). Neben einer Bibliographie von R. Brandt bietet die Ausgabe eine vollständige Übersetzung aller vier Bücher.

XXVIII, 218 S.Band 2: Of the Conduct of the Understanding. A Discourse of Miracles. Nach der ersten Werkausgabe London 1714. VIII, 140 S.John Lockes postum erschienene Schrift Of the Conduct of the Understanding enthalt bereits entscheidende Grundideen der deutschen Aufklarung (z.B. Selbstdenken, Kampf gegen Vorurteile, Unparteilichkeit). Ihre Ubersetzung durch Kants Mitschuler Kypke hat dann wesentlich zur Verbreitung ihres Gedankengutes beigetragen. Die kommentierte Neuerschliessung dieses rar gewordenen Textes, der Kant aufs nachhaltigste beeinflusst hat, bietet eine unentbehrliche Grundlage fur das noch weithin unerforschte Kapitel Locke in Konigsberg. Ebenfalls der Neuausgabe beigegeben wird die von Kypke der Anleitung beigefugte Abhandlung von den Wunderwerken, welche die Grundgedanken der grosseren Schrift auf die Religionsphilosophie ubertragt.

Obsah: Lockův Esej o lidském rozumu; Poznámky překladatele; Esej o lidském rozumu; Úvodní slovo ke čtenáři; Výchozí poznámky; PRVNÍ KNIHA –⁠ O vrozených duševních obrazech; DRUHÁ KNIHA –⁠ O ideálech; TŘETÍKNIHA –⁠ O slovech; ČTVRTÁ KNIHA –⁠ O poznání a mínění.

Klasické dílo politické literatury anglického myslitele. V prvé části v důkladném rozboru polemizuje Locke se spisem R. Filmera Patriarcha čili o přirozené moci králů, obhajujícím absolutismus královské moci. Tato polemika vyjadřuje vyhrocené rozpory dvou tříd, feudální a buržoazní, a dvou epoch. V druhé části formuluje autor své názory na původ, rozsah a účel občanské vlády. Lockovo dílo působilo převratně nejen v Anglii, ale i Francii a USA. Pomáhalo překonávat fanatismus církve, absolutismus vlády, scholastickou výchovu a sterilitu metafyziky.

Als een aantal mensen halverwege de jaren vijftig van de 20e eeuw een verbond met God en met elkaar aangaat, hebben ze niet in de gaten op welke catastrofe hun besloten gemeenschap afstevent.
