I always have trouble in philosophy when authors use words that are so common and general for us (like "idea" and "impression). This video helped me really understand what Hume meant when he made the distinction. Thanks!
Glad it was useful for you. You've kind of got it backwards, though. We're language users centuries after Hume. He's not using our common language and terms. We're using his. We're the latecomers
It took my prof almost 2 hours to explain this concept and no one understood. Thank you so much for making this interesting and make sense, your helping me pass!!❤
I’ve never been the biggest fan of Hume, but I do appreciate how how succinct his systems are. When I first started reading philosophy, Hume managed to really attract me into thinking more deeply about a lot of things.
Great videos. Getting acquainted with Hume surprised me. I now see him less of a precursor to lab sciences and more a precursor towards social theorists. Categories like Empiricism and Romanticism are booby traps.
so from my understanding, impressions are limited based on experience. What happens within this translation(if i can call it that) from impression to idea? What happens when I translate these ideas into the use of communication? (such as language, oral, written, etc.) What does this mean to the other person receiving this information? Very curious in this subject matter of the mind. What would you recommend I read for more questions about these things? Thank you!
can you make a comparison video between Hume and Locke view on Empiricism? I'm having trouble finding the differences between them for my upcoming presentation.
David Hume said that if people carefully examine the content of experience, they will find that there are only distinct identities: impressions and ideas . Does it mean that the origin of knowledge was the impression and ideas?
Depends on what you mean by concepts. It's not a term that means precisely the same thing for each philosopher who uses it. Better to stick with the terminology of the author.
@@GregoryBSadler This is what I was wondering. Where does his idea of concepts lie in comparison to ideas. I have read little of humes work so I do not know how he defines concepts. In my view ideas are joined concepts with perceptions.

Yes, I don't agree with him on much, but I do like reading him
Awesome video!! Thank you for your wonderful lectures.. they are a priceless resource and are extremely helpful.
Glad you enjoy them
Thank you; thought impressions and Core Concepts are imperative to ones perception.
So helpful! Thank you!
You're welcome
Thank you so much for your videos
You're very welcome!
Great videos.

Yep. Always a mistake to buy into the broad categories of grand narratives. The real history of ideas is so much more complex
Thank u so much for this video
You’re welcome
Good video
Thanks!

Hume's works, to start with
thank you so much
You're welcome!
@@GregoryBSadler am amazed, you took time from your busy schedule to respond to my comment. I will be watching your videos now on.
I respond to most comments. I treat this channel as if it was my classroom or my front porch

Did hume says that space is known to mind by sight and touch?
Good opportunity for you to read his works and find out, I’d say

. Does it mean that the origin of knowledge was the impression and ideas?
Pretty much. And then all the operations we carry out on them
@@GregoryBSadler Thank you so much Professor, so helpful!
Glad to read it. You’re very welcome
So perceptions are impressions.
Are ideas equal to concepts?

@@jakopic Well, sounds like you need to READ THE TEXT like I always say
