$99.99
Published in 1795, this antiquarian leather-bound volume contains the final volume ofAn Essay Concerning Human Understanding, the masterpiece of the influential English philosopher John Locke (1632–1704). Often hailed as the father of modern empiricism, Locke argued that the human mind is born as a blank slate—ortabula rasa—and that all of our knowledge is acquired through experience and sensory perception rather than innate ideas. This specific third volume focuses on the nature, degrees, and limits of human knowledge, making it a foundational text that helped shape the Enlightenment and modern Western philosophy.
