René Descartes (1596–1650)... «Philosophy: A Very Short Introduction»
innashpitzberg9 октября 2012René Descartes (1596–1650) viewed Aristotelianism as a time-hallowed system of errors. So did the sceptics, but unlike them he also took it to be an obstacle – an obstacle to human knowledge of nature, like scepticism itself. So he conceived an ambitious plan. (Had he known just how ambitious he might have stopped in his tracks there and then – so we should be grateful that he didn't.)
