A propos de l'auteur
The chief representative in Catholic theology of the Augustinian reform movement known as Jansenism, Antoine Arnauld was one of the seventeenth century's most important and influential writers on metaphysics and epistemology. He was born in Paris in 1612 into a wealthy family and educated at the afficher plus Sorbonne, where he entered the priesthood and received a doctorate in theology in 1641. Invited to contribute a set of objections to Meditations on First Philosophy (1641) by Descartes he was the first to raise the problem of the "Cartesian circle." Arnauld, however, was deeply impressed by the Cartesian system and defended an essentially Cartesian position in his philosophical works, as well as in his later controversies with Malebranche and Leibniz. Arnauld's most important philosophical work was The Art of Thinking (1662), which he coauthored with Pierre Nicolet. Elaborating the Cartesian theory of clear and distinct ideas, it attempted to reform the theory of logic by using as its basis Descartes's Regulae rather than the traditional Prior Analytics of Aristotle. Arnaud's treatise On True and False Ideas (1683) defended a representative theory of perception against Malebranche's view that the immediate objects of human thoughts are ideas in the mind of God. Several years later, in correspondence, Arnauld interrogated Leibniz over the latter's Discourse on Metaphysics, arguing that the Leibnizian theory of complete individual concepts is committed to an objectionable form of determinism. Arndaud died in exile in Brussels in 1694. (Bowker Author Biography) afficher moins
