   Extractions: George Berkeley studied divinity and later lectured at Trinity College, Dublin. In 1734 he was appointed bishop at Cloyne, in which office he devoted himself to the social and economic plight of Ireland. An eminent metaphysician, Berkeley is best known for his attack on the logical foundation of the calculus as developed by Newton . In his tract The analyst: or a discourse addressed to an infidel mathematician he tried to argue that although the calculus led to true results its foundations were no more secure than those of religion. He declared that the calculus involved a logical fallacy of a shift in the hypothesis. He described derivatives as follows: And what are these fluxions? The velocities of evanescent increments. And what are these same evanescent increments? They are neither finite quantities, nor quantities infinitely small, nor yet nothing. May we not call them ghosts of departed quantities? Berkeley's criticisms were well founded and important in that they focused the attention of mathematicians on a logical clarification of the calculus. He developed an ingenious theory to explain the correct results obtained, claiming that it was the result of two compensating errors.

   http://oregonstate.edu/instruct/phl302/philosophers/berkeley.html
   
   Extractions: "Some truths there are so near and obvious to the mind that a man need only opens his eyes to see them. Such I take this important one to be, to wit, that all the choir of heaven and the furniture of earth, in a word all those bodies which compose the mighty frame of the world, have not any subsistence without a mind, that their being is to be perceived..." The Principles of Human Knowledge George Berkeley, trained in philosophy at Trinity College Dublin, continues the tradition of the Cambridge Platonists and the 4th Earl of Shaftsbury, who find the mechanical philosophy of Descartes, Gassendi, Locke, Boyle and Newton as dangerous as the complete materialism of Hobbes and Spinoza. Berkeley raises many problems for this materialist tradition. He attacks the doctrine of abstract ideas; he makes great use of the implications of the representative theory of perception; and he gives strong arguments against the distinction between primary and secondary qualities. Berkeley calls his alternative to the views he criticizes immaterialism. It is the doctrine that to be is to perceive or to be perceived. The universe, thus, has only two kinds of entities in it, spirits (which perceive) and ideas (which are perceived). March 12, Born the eldest son to William Berkeley, an officer of customs, near Kilkenny in Ireland.

   Extractions: poka¿ powi±zane Berkeley George (1685-1735), filozof irlandzki. Duchowny anglikañski. W latach 1700-1707 studiowa³ w Dublinie. Od 1709 pe³ni³ ró¿ne funkcje ko¶cielne w Dublinie i Londynie. 1729-1731 prowadzi³ dzia³alno¶æ misyjn± w Ameryce Pó³nocnej. Od 1734 biskup Cloyn (Irlandia). Przedstawiciel brytyjskiego empiryzmu . Zwolennik nominalizmu : zaprzecza³ istnieniu jakichkolwiek abstrakcji w umy¶le i poza nim, terminy ogólne uwa¿a³ wy³±cznie za s³owa. Jego pogl±dy ontologiczne okre¶la siê mianem solipsyzmu (lub idealizmu subiektywnego). Wyci±gaj±c radykalne wnioski z w³asnej tezy g³osz±cej, ¿e istnieje tylko to, czego siê do¶wiadcza, sformu³owa³ twierdzenie: esse est percipi (z ³aciñskiego - "istnieæ to byæ postrzeganym"). Zaprzecza³ istnieniu materii, która nie stanowi±c bezpo¶redniej tre¶ci do¶wiadczenia gwarantowa³aby postrzeganym przedmiotom bytow± niezale¿no¶æ. Rzeczy by³y dlañ tylko ideami (postrze¿eniami), trwa³o¶æ za¶ i jedno¶æ zapewnia³o im i reszcie ¶wiata ci±g³e postrzeganie wszystkiego przez Boga. Wa¿n± sk³adow± filozofii Berkeleya by³ spirytualizm . Przyjmowa³ istnienie czynnych duchów-umys³ów - nosicieli idei. W pó¼niejszym okresie zmodyfikowa³ swoje pogl±dy pod wp³ywem filozofii Platona . Poza filozofi± zajmowa³ siê m.in. optyk±.

    Extractions: Irish philosopher and Bishop in the Irish Anglican church, he is considered along with Locke and Hume to be one of the great Empiricists. A graduate of Trinity College in Dublin at the age of 19, he was elected to the college as a fellow by 1707, and was made Dean of Derry College in 1724. Most of his writing was done between 1707 and 1713. His major works include his notebooks: Philosophical Commentaries (1707-08), and the books: Essay Towards a New Theory of Vision Principles of Human Knowledge Three Dialogues Between Hylas and Philonous (1713), his Latin work, De Motu (1721), and three later works Alciphron The Analyst (1734), and A Defense of Free Thinking in Mathematics Berkeley's earliest work, Vision was primarily a psychological explanation of sight, bordering on early philosophical significance. His Principles was perhaps his most influential work, dealing with such doctrines as abstract general ideas and his own idea of 'Berkeleyan Idealism.' He suggested that if an object is not perceived, it does not exist. Berkeley challenged Locke's assertions in his Essay , arguing that general abstraction, as it is suggested by Locke and even Plato is wrong. He asserts that some abstracted ideas are impossible objects, and that these are not necessary parts of learning and used language.(This is the principle impetus for Wittgenstein's

    Extractions: Life and Writings Berkeley was born at Dysert Castle, near Thomastown, Ireland, on March 12, 1685. He studied at Trinity College Dublin and received a B.A. (1704), M.A. and fellow (1707). He filled various college offices includ ing tutor, Junior Dean, and Junior Greek Lecturer. He lived there in an atmosphere "charged with the elements of reaction against traditional scholasticism in physics and metaphysics." His Philosophical Commentaries (first printed in 1871 under the title Common-Place Book ) was written from time to time during his undergraduate years as a kind of scrapbook of thoughts. The work indicates the great formative influence of Locke's Essay which was a text book at Trinity College, and appear s to have excited Berkeley to independent critical activity. In 1709 he published an Essay toward a New Theory of Vision , an examination of visual consciousness to prove that it affords no ground for belief in the reality of the objects apparently seen. In 1710 appeared a
