  • Cogito, Ergo Sum

    Georges DickerARTICLEThe European Legacy2022Referências: 10

    E. M. Curley has said that Descartes’ cogito, ergo sum “is as obscure on examination as it is compelling at first glance.” Why should that be? Maybe because the cogito raises so many textual and interpretive questions. Is it an argument or an intuition? If it is an argument, does it require an additional premise? Is it best interpreted as a “performance?” Is it best seen as the discovery that any reason proposed for doubting its success entails t…

  • Kant's Refutation of Idealism

    Open AccessGeorges DickerARTICLEKantian Review2012

    In ‘Kant's Refutation of Idealism’ ( Noûs , 47), I defend a version of the Refutation, pioneered by Paul Guyer in Kant and the Claims of Knowledge , whose core idea is that the only way that one can know the order of one's own past experiences, except in certain rare cases, is by correlating them with the successive states of perceived external objects that caused the experiences.

  • Berkeley on Immediate Perception

    Georges DickerARTICLEThe Philosophical Quarterly2006Referências: 2

    I have previously argued that within an argument to show that we cannot perceive the causes of our sensations, Berkeley's Philonous conflates a psychological and an epistemic sense of ‘immediately perceive’, and uses the principle of perceptual immediacy (PPI), that whatever is perceived by the senses is immediately perceived. George Pappas has objected that Berkeley does not operate with either of these concepts of immediate perception, and does…
