About this ebook
David Hume war zeitlebens unzufrieden mit der Breitenwirkung seiner Schriften. Er verfasste deshalb einige Neufassungen seiner Werke, so 1757 mit der "Dissertation on the Passions" eine von Buch II seines berühmten "Treatise of Human Nature".Inhaltlich geht es um die Entstehung von Gefühlen und Humes Handlungstheorie. Mit bemerkenswerter Kreativität versucht er, die experimentelle Methode der Naturwissenschaften auf den Bereich der menschlichen Gefühlsregungen zu übertragen.Gerade seine Kürzungen lassen dabei die wesentlichen Punkte seiner Affekttheorie schärfer hervortreten. Dies verstand Hume nicht nur als inhaltlichen, sondern vor allem als stilistischen Fortschritt, der jedem Leser zugutekommt.

Author
David Hume
David Hume was an eighteenth-century Scottish philosopher, historian, and essayist, and the author of A Treatise of Human Nature, considered by many to be one of the most important philosophical works ever published. Hume attended the University of Edinburgh at an early age and considered a career in law before deciding that the pursuit of knowledge was his true calling. Hume’s writings on rationalism and empiricism, free will, determinism, and the existence of God would be enormously influential on contemporaries such as Adam Smith, as well as the philosophers like Schopenhauer, John Stuart Mill, and Karl Popper, who succeeded him. Hume died in 1776.
