Cognitivismo ético: a fundamentação dos conceitos morais em Locke
Full text linkTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em FilosofiaEsta tese aborda o problema dos fundamentos dos conceitos morais na obra de John Locke. Aparentemente, Locke teria dois projetos irreconciliáveis para fundamentar a moral, um não-cognitivista e o outro cognitivista. Após caracterizarmos os dois projetos, defendemos que há um engano de interpretação, porque Locke tem um único projeto dividido em duas partes que se complementam para fundamentar a moral. O conceito de lei natural está sempre presente. O projeto centra-se na ideia da existência de Deus e da lei natural, aliada à razão humana. O cognitivismo ético de Locke emerge como uma consequência da sua defesa de que o entendimento pode construir as ideias a partir do acesso ao conhecimento da essência real e da essência nominal dos modos mistos. Por isso, os conceitos morais são reais e objetivos. Por conseguinte, o subjetivismo e o ceticismo éticos foram dissolvidos. Defendemos também que as ações humanas são consideradas morais, somente em comparação com as ideias de lei e não em comparação com as ideias das sensações de prazer e de dor. Com isso, as interpretações hedonistas que atribuem ao pensamento lockeano foram revisitadas e harmonizadasThis thesis approaches the problem about the fundamentals of the moral concepts in John Locke#s writings. Seemingly, Locke would have two irreconcilable projects to fundament morality, one noncognitive and the other cognitive. After having characterized the two projects, one defends that there is a misinterpretation since Locke has a unique project split in two parts, which complement each other in order to fundament morality. The concept of natural law is always present. The project concerns about the idea of God existence and the natural law associated with the human reason. Locke#s ethical cognitivism emerges as a consequence of his defense of the idea that the understanding can construct ideas from the knowledge access of the real essence and the nominal essence of the mixed modes. Thereupon, the moral concepts are real and objective. Consequently, the moral subjectivism and ceticism were dissolved. One also defends that human actions are considered moral, only in comparison with the law ideas and not in comparison with the ideas of the pain and pleasure sensation. Therefore, the hedonist interpretation attributed to the thought of Locke were revisited and harmonize

Locke's Primary Qualities
No full textIn chapter viii of book ii of An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, 1 John Locke provides various putative lists of primary qualities. Insofar as they have considered the variation across Locke's lists at all, commentators have usually been content simply either to consider a self-consciously abbreviated list (e.g., \"Size, Shape, etc.\") or a composite list as the list of Lockean primary qualities, truncating such a composite list only by omitting supposedly co-referential terms. Doing the latter with minimal judgment about what terms are co-referential gives us the following list of eleven qualities (in the order in which they appear in this chapter of the Essay): solidity, extension, figure, mobility, motion or rest, number, bulk, texture, motion, size, and situation.

Swift's rejection of Locke's theory
No full textJonathan Swift, a traditional, orthodox Anglican, attacks the liberal theory of John Locke. Though Swift approves of some Lockean principles, he denounces the basic premises of Locke's philosophy. Swift opposes Locke's empirical, rational system which emphasizes the human intellect and minimizes divine authority. In his epistemological, educational, and political theories, Locke glorifies mankind rather than God. In Gulliver's Travels Swift ridicules Locke's theories and rejects the implications of Locke's philosophy. His criticism of Locke shows a close reading of the Essay Conerning Human Understanding and an acute awareness of the direction of Locke's thinking. Though Locke influenced the thought of many of his contemporaries, Swift remains adamant in his opposition to what he views as an impractical, speculative system of philosophy.English, Department o
