Leibniz's Naturalized Philosophy of Mind

Beschreibung

Larry M. Jorgensen provides a systematic reappraisal of Leibniz's philosophy of mind. He argues that Leibniz's theological commitments yielded a thoroughgoing naturalizing methodology, according to which the properties of an object are explicable in terms of the object's nature, and that this led him to a fully natural theory of mind.

Autor

Larry M. Jorgensen is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Philosophy Department at Skidmore College. His main research is in early modern philosophy, with a primary focus on Leibniz's philosophy of mind and, more generally, on the development of the uniquely modern conception of consciousness that developed during the seventeenth century. He has recently developed a secondary line of research into the ethics of forgiveness and reconciliation.
