Résumé

In "A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge, " George Berkeley challenges the prevailing materialist philosophy of his time, advocating for an idealist perspective that posits reality is fundamentally composed of ideas rather than material substance. Berkeley's distinctive literary style combines rigorous philosophical argumentation with accessible prose, making metaphysical concepts comprehensible to a broader audience.
Set against the backdrop of 18th-century Enlightenment thought, this treatise engages with and responds to the skepticism of empiricism and the rationalism of Descartes, offering a coherent framework that sees perception as the basis of existence: "to be is to be perceived." Berkeley, an Irish philosopher and bishop, was deeply influenced by the works of Locke and Hobbes, leading him to question the role of the senses in understanding the material world.
His experiences in the rapidly shifting intellectual landscape of the Enlightenment, coupled with his religious convictions, provided fertile ground for his arguments against materialism. By grounding his theories in the immediate experience of consciousness and divine perception, Berkeley sought to reconcile faith and reason. Readers seeking a profound exploration of metaphysical thought will find Berkeley's treatise illuminating.
His arguments invite reflection on the nature of existence, perception, and the limits of human knowledge, making this work an essential read for anyone interested in philosophy, epistemology, or the evolution of modern thought.
