Condillac Section from Alfred Weber's 1908 History of philosophy. http://www.class.uidaho.edu/mickelsen/texts/Weber - History/Condillac.htm
Extractions: Alfred Weber Table of Contents § 59. Condillac The philosophy of Locke was introduced into France by Voltaire. Here it found an original follower in the abbot Étienne Bonnot de CONDILLAC, the founder of absolute sensationalism. Locke distinguishes two sources of ideas: sensation and reflection, while Condillac, in his Traité des sensations recognizes but one, making reflection a product of sensibility. His proof is ingenious. He imagines a statue, which is organized and alive, like ourselves, but hindered by its marble exterior from having sensations. Its intellectual and moral life advances as the various parts of this covering are removed. Let us first remove the marble covering its olfactory organs. Now the statue has only the sense of smell, and cannot, as yet, perceive anything but odors. It cannot acquire any idea of extension, form, sound, or color. A rose is placed before it. From the impression produced by it, a sensation of smell arises. Henceforth it is, from our point of view, a statue that smells a rose; in reality, however, it is nothing but the odo r of this flower. The statue does not and cannot, as yet, possess the slightest notion of an

Fichte Section from Alfred Weber's 1908 History of philosophy. Pays particular attention to Fichte's relation to Kant. http://www.class.uidaho.edu/mickelsen/texts/Weber - History/fichte.htm
Extractions: Alfred Weber Table of Contents § 64. Fichte English sensationalism and the philosophy of relativity were founded by a student of medicine and a layman. German idealism and the philosophy of the absolute come from theology. JOHANN GOTTLIEB FICHTE (1765-1814), its founder, like Schelling and Hegel, first studied for the ministry. His Versuch einer Kritik aller Offenbarung (1792) won for him a professorship in Jena (1793). In 1794 he published his chief work: Grundlage der gesammten Wissenschaftslehre, which was afterwards revised and republished under different titles; and in 1796 his Grundlage des Naturrechts. Accused of atheism, he resigned his chair (1799), and for ten years he and his young family suffered the trials attendant upon a more or less nomadic life. He died as a professor of the University of Berlin, founded in 1809. Besides the works which established his fame, we mention the following: Die Bestimmung des Menschen Ueber das Wesen des Gelehrten und seine Erscheinungen im Gebiete der Freikeit Die Anweisungen zum seligen Leben oder auch die Religionslehre Reden an die deutsche Nation (1808); etc. The German uprising against Napoleon was largely due to his influence.

These were regarded as the inward principles for private and political law, and from them the duties both of the government and of rulers were deduced, so that the freedom of mankind might not be interfered with. The basis of the state in Puffendorf's view is the social instinct: the highest end of the state is the peace and security of social life through the transformation of inward duties as prescribed by, conscience into external duties as compelled by law.

Hegel - History Of Philosophy - Wolff Section on the thinker, from Hegel's Lectures on the History of philosophy. http://www.class.uidaho.edu/mickelsen/texts/Hegel - Hist Phil/wolff.htm
Extractions: Table of Contents 2. WOLFF. The philosophy of Wolff is directly connected with that of Leibnitz, for really it is a pedantic systematization of the latter, for which reason it is likewise called the Leibnitz-Wolffian system of philosophy. Wolff attained to great distinction in mathematics and made himself famous by his philosophy as well; the latter was for long predominant in Germany. In Wolff, as a teacher dealing with the understanding, we find a systematic exposition of "Rational thoughts on the powers of the human understanding and their right uses in the knowledge of the truth," Halle, 1712, 8vo; "Rational thoughts on God, the world, and the soul of man, likewise on all things generally," Frankfort and Leipzig, 1719; "On the action and conduct of men," Halle, 1720; "On Social Life," Halle, 1720; "On the operations of Nature," Halle, 1723, and so on. Wolff wrote German and Latin quartos on every department of Philosophy, even on economics - twenty-three thick volumes of Latin, or about forty quartos altogether. His mathematical works make a good many more quartos. He brought into general use the differential and integral calculus of Leibnitz. It is only in its general content and taken as a whole that Wolff's philosophy is the philosophy of Leibnitz, that is to say, only in relation to the fundamental determinations of monads and to the theodicy - to these he remained faithful; any other content is empiric, derived from our feelings and desires. Wolff likewise accepted in their entirety all the Cartesian and other definitions of general ideas. Hence we find in him abstract propositions and their proofs mingled with experiences, on the indubitable truth of which he builds a large part of his propositions; and he must so build and derive his foundations if a content is to result at all. With Spinoza, on the contrary, no content is to be found excepting absolute substance and a perpetual return into the same. The greatness of Wolff's services to the culture of Germany, which now, appeared quite independently and without any connection with an earlier and profounder metaphysical standpoint (

PHIL10003 Philosophical Texts 1: Hume's Dialogues .PHIL 10003 Philosophical texts 1 Hume s Dialogues. First year, first semester, 20034. Unit co-ordinator and lecturer Andrew Pyle. Course http://www.bris.ac.uk/Depts/Philosophy/UG/ugunits0304/PHIL10003.html
Extractions: PHIL 10003: Philosophical Texts 1: Hume's Dialogues. First year, first semester, 2003-4 Unit co-ordinator and lecturer: Andrew Pyle Course Description. The course focuses on a single classic text, the Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion, by the Scottish empiricist David Hume (1711-1776), a work which, because of its dangerously radical content, was published only posthumously (Edinburgh,1779). The focus will be both historical and philosophical. Close study of the text will give students a firm grasp of the traditional 'Argument to Design' and Hume's sceptical critique of its validity. Students will then be led to reflect more broadly on attempts to argue from human experience to the existence and properties of a God or gods. Intended learning outcomes The main aims of the course are: To introduce students to the classic argument to design, as found in generations of natural theologians (from Boyle and Newton down to Paley and the authors of the Bridgwater Treatises). To explain the precise version of the argument
