5. Why does Hume reference Astronomers and Newton? What are the major points he is raising on page 6, especially from the right side of the page.
1) When Hume says "The most secret recesses of the mind," he means that he wants you (humans) to engage in secret places within your mind or maybe something out of your comfort zone in order to gain true wisdom.
ReplyDelete2) The only way is to look seriously into the nature of human understanding and through an exact analysis of its powers, show that humans are not suited for difficult and hard to understand subjects.
3) The only universal remedy is accurate and valid reasoning. This can undercut abstruse philosophy and metaphysical barbarous language which can bring forth real knowledge and wisdom.
4) I believe Hume is saying that the eye of our mind is our senses, maybe what we perceive or hear and that we can not trust this and can not differentiate one thing from another when using this.
5) Hume refers to them because they discover theories and facts through observation and this is what Hume wants for law. Also, Hume, as a naturalist, aims to account for the way our minds work in a manner that is consistent with a Newtonian (According to laws) picture of the world.
1.When Hume says "The most secret recesses of the mind", he is saying that us humans need to go deep into our thoughts, places where we are at most not comfortable in being with to attain such great true wisdom. That we need to overcome this act of laziness in the mind.
ReplyDelete2. The only way to free learning from such entanglement is through the attention to the nature of human understanding. If it does not pass its a failure because it can be rejected by a sense confidence and security.
3.Accurate and valid reasoning is the only universal remedy,
fitted for all people of all kinds, lazy and curious, despairing and hopeful and it alone can undercut that abstruse philosophy and metaphysical jargon that gets mixed up with popular superstition, presenting the latter in a manner that casual reasoners can’t understand, and giving it the air of real knowledge and wisdom.
4. I believe what Hume is saying here is that possibly that the eye of the mind, that is referring to our senses, that things we hear and see may not be true and with that we may be get deceived of things.
5. Hume references Astronomers and Newton because through their works they conducted different theories and facts and through these different theories and facts they used observations inorder to conduct those various things and that is what Hume wants for law. What Hume is aiming for especially on page 6 is that he wants our minds to work such that of Newtons(a Newtonian Way).
1.) When Hume says "the most inner recesses of the mind", he is telling us that we should be preoccupied with breaking past our comfort zones in order to find the answers to the world's problems. Essentially, Hume is telling us to break past our limitations and become something more.
ReplyDelete2.) The only way is through attention to human understanding. By analyzing it, we can see that humans aren't cognitively built to understand difficult topics.
3.) The universal remedy to everything is accurate and valid reasoning as through that we can focus on the truth and really understand human understanding.
4.) I believe that what Hume is saying is that even the inner most recesses of our mind can be misguided. I think what he is hinting at is the senses and how they cannot be trusted.
5.) Hume references the Astronomers and Newton because they follow exactly what he is saying. Those people find their answers through observation, following exactly what Hume wants for law. Hume also states that we should think in a Newtonian state.
1. When Hume refers to the "the most secret recesses of the mind", He is saying that humans need to stray away from our comfort zones in terms of thought. Wisdom is retained through these places and subjects.We have to engage things we aren't used to.
ReplyDelete2. The only way to free ourselves is through the nature of human understanding.It is a difficult subject to understand. It is often rejected by our pride and confidence .forth
3. The only universally remedy is accurate and valid reasoning.This can bring forth wisdom by undermining barbaric human language.
4 Hume is referring to the senses as the eye of our mind.The things we hear and see may not be reality, but to humans perception is reality.
5.Hume refers to astronomers an Newton because their theories and observations inspire different thoughts. Hume aims to tackle how our minds work in a Newtonian way.
1. When Hume mentions "the most secret recesses of our mind", he is telling humans that they need to search for the part of our mind that is not necessarily used all the time. He wants us to embrace it because we will gain wisdom.
ReplyDelete2. The only way to "free learning from entanglement" is to embrace the nature of human understanding.
3.The only universal remedy to everything is accurate and valid reasoning. This brings knowledge and wisdom because the barbaric human language is being undermined.
4. When stating "the eye of the mind can't easily detect the lines...", Hume means that the eye of our mind is our senses because what we see or hear is not always the truth and the only information that our mind sees is what our eyes allows it to see.
5. Hume references Astronomers and Newton because their teachings are paths that we can follow that lead us to new thoughts. Major points that he aims to point out are the way that our minds can work in an unorthodox way such as Newtonian.
1. The "most secret recesses of the mind" are those thoughts and ideas which are rarely though of and followed. Hume calls us to continue to search these unknown areas for new knowledge on human reason. These secret passages of the mind are capable of holding the answers to even the most outlandish questions.
ReplyDelete2. In order to be free of this constant struggle for truth, humans must be able to find the extent of human reason and stay content.
3. The only universal remedy is accurate and valid reasoning. That which must receive this remedy is the over-complicated and mixed up philosophy which does not find answers but only pushes for more questions.
4. I believe that Hume is saying that the mind and its inner most secrets are difficult to understand and distinguish because they are not concrete.
5. Hume longs for philosophy to be like astronomy and the works of Newton because of their importance and dependability. Human experience is the only way to make philosophy ultimately like a science. There are general and universal principles that Newton and other scientists went by which philosophy must go by as well when searching for the secrets of the mind.
1.When Hume mentions "most secret recesses of the mind" he is telling humans that they need to use the part of their minds that they normally do not use. He wants us to go after and discover new knowledge.
ReplyDelete2.The "only way to free learning from entanglement" is to look to the nature of human understanding.
3.The only universally remedy is accurate and valid reasoning. Doing this allows us to truly understand human reason.
4.I believe what Hume is saying here is that possibly that the eye of the mind, is that our senses help guide our minds.
5. Hume references the Astronomers and Newton because he like the laws they set up. The laws can allow us to develop new thoughts and ideas. They also allow us to find out more ways how our minds work.
1. Hume is saying this because the "most secret recesses of the mind" are areas of our mind, that are unknown and must be explored so that we may gain wisdom from what we have learned.
ReplyDelete2. The only way to free learning from entanglement, is to be able to understand ourselves, and turn to the the nature of our understanding.
3. This idea of a universal remedy, is based off the fact that we must have truthful, and precise reasoning.
4. He is saying that although we rely on the eyes to be able see clearly, we mentally can not comprehend what we see sometimes because it is just not possible.
5. Hume uses scientists because they use the same method to find answers. They define a series of laws, or rules that are truth, and must be applied when studying a certain subject.
1. Hume means by “the most secret recesses of the mind” that he wants everyone to access what we don’t normally use so we can understand more of what we learn.
ReplyDelete2. The only way to free learning is by using our human nature to deduct what is wrong from the outside world.
3. The only universal remedy is what is correct and precise. The thing being remedied is our knowledge.
4. Hume means when he states “the eye of the mind can’t easily detect the line” is that our senses cannot see the difference in objects.

4) Hume means that our mind cannot be trusted when it come to the physical world.
5)Hume mentions scientists because he was highly influenced by some of their work
1) When Hume says "The most secret recesses of the mind," he is talking about place that is outside of the comfort zone of a person. Places that you do not use or venture in on a day to day bases.
ReplyDelete2) Looking seriously into the nature of human of understanding shows that humans struggle with difficult or hard to understand subjects, many are not suited for such subjects.
3) The only universal cure to this truth is accurate and valid reasoning. Abstruse philosophy and metaphysical language bring the cure by providing real knowledge and wisdom.
4) Hume is talking about the eye of our mind as our sense which muddy ups the picture which we are seeing and causes us to strong with differentiating one thing from another.
5) Hume continues to refer to them for they discover theories and facts through observation. Hume wish to show how our mind is consistent with a Newtonian picture of the world.

1. When Hume talks about "The most secret recesses of the mind" he is talking about the part of ones mind that they do not consult often. It is where they can demonstrate thought on a greater more self reflective level.
ReplyDelete2. Hume's only way of "freeing learning of entanglement" is by examination of nature, and humans involved with it, and being more open to interpretation.
3. The only "universal remedy" is accurate, and valid reasoning, because reasoning and linear thought are what helps cure the issue of too complex philosophizing.
4. "The eye of the mind can't easily detect the lines" is a reference to an empiricist view on life, and that the senses can sometimes be deceiving and cause error in analysis of life.
5. Hume refers to Astronomers and Newton because they tended to follow his ideal guidelines. They would use their senses for necessary
1. By this Hume means the part of our mind that we do can not and do not always attempt to access, or even want to access, but is necessary to gain knowledge needed for understanding certain things.
ReplyDelete2. Hume attempts to see how human and nature evolve and react to one another.

ReplyDelete2. Serious analysis is required to free learning.
3. Reason is the only remedy. This helps to cure of complexity and roadblocks on the way to a better understanding of the world.
4. I believe Hume is referring to our senses in that quote. Humans tell lies many times in their lives and detecting these lies is no easy task.
