1843. Part One of Two. Including his letters to Thomas Prior, Esq.,
Dean Gervais, Mr. Pope, etc., etc. to which is prefixed an account
of his life. George Berkeley was one of the three most famous
eighteenth century British Empiricists along with John Locke and
David Hume. He is best known for his motto, esse is percipi, to be
is to be perceived. He was an idealist: everything that exists is
either a mind or depends for its existence upon a mind. He was an
immaterialist: matter does not exist. He accepted the seemingly
outrageous position that ordinary physical objects are composed
solely of ideas, which are inherently mental. He wrote on vision,
mathematics, Newtonian mechanics, economics, and medicine as well
as philosophy. In his own time, his most often-read works concerned
the medicinal value of tar-water. And in a curious sense, he was
the first great American philosopher. Contents Volume One: Life of
Bishop Berkeley; Letters, etc.; Of the Principles of Human
Knowledge; Synoptical Table of Contents; Introduction; Three
Dialogues between Hylas and Philonous; An Essay towards a New
Theory of Vision; and Alciphron: or the Minute Philosopher, in
Seven Dialogues. See other titles by this author available from
