Research Abstract |
In the early-modern West a sort of ‘two-fold’ existence view-the view that in addition to the perceptible, familiar world we should theoretically postulate a true world (comprised, for example, of atoms and the void)-explicitly appeared, and the former, familiar and perceptible world was treated as one that consisted of the items that we perceive as so many results of the true world’s affecting our sensory organs, namely, ‘ideas in the mind’. In this sense the early modern ‘theory of ideas’ was clearly based on a scientific view; in other words, it was originally ‘naturalistic’. In the present studies I clarified how Berkeley, Kant, and so on distorted and dissolved the naturalistic logic of the theory of ideas
